Certain types of monsters may be created with objects in their starting inventory appropriate to their species. A pretty comprehensive spoiler can be found here. Additionally, they may be eligible for a random offensive item.

Monster starting inventory can provide valuable hints at the true identities of objects with randomized appearances.
