Perks will grow as you gain more experiance, also you will be able to develope perks(when I say so)
You have 300 Crowns to buy stuff, provided by the Mountainhome. Items have values based on what they're made of and how well they're made, but these sold to you here by the Mountainhome are all baseline.
All dwarves automatically have a set of clothes and one "personal item", which is anything they want within reason, and can be something not on this list. The personal item should make sense for the dwarf to have.
Let's look at the general equipment:
Food: A dwarf regularly consumes one unit of food a day. Eating low quality food for long periods of time can make a dwarf unhappy or sick.
8 Crowns:
Trecker's Lunch: Dehydrated meal. Filling, tasteful, and ready to eat with only a little preparation.
5 Crowns:
Salted Helmets: Plump helmets salted to so as to keep on a long trip.
Wheat Crackers: Filling but tasteless crackers.
Equow Jerky: Jerked meat from an Equow, tasty but thirst-inducing.
3 Crowns:
Cave Fish: Whole cavern fish, raw and uncleaned. Cheap but not immediately edible.
Scrap Sausage: Sausage made from "waste meat". Tastes alright, but doesn't keep as long as preserved meat.
1 Crown:
Cavern Stalks: They're cheap and last a long time, but that's all they've got going for them. Distasteful and unfilling.
Drink: A dwarf regularly drinks one unit of drink a day. Drinking low quality refreshments for long periods of time can make a dwarf unhappy or sick.
6 Crowns:
Honey Mead: The drink of the gods, tasteful and thirst-relieving.
4 Crowns:
Helmet Wine: Delicious wine, brewed from plump helmets. Refreshing!
Stone Rum: Rum brewed from quarry leaves. About as tasteful as wine, with a similar level of refreshment.
Pork Rum: Rum brewed from pig tails. Tastes better than stone rum.
Wheat Beer: Beer made from cavern wheat. Less refreshing than wine, but tastes better.
Sugar Ale: Ale brewed from sugar pods. Not very good for thirst, but tastes great.
2 Crowns:
Water: That stuff that falls out of the sky when it gets cloudy. Quenches thirst and clean, but tasteless and undwarvenly.
1 Crown:
Wormshine: A by-product of brewing, this is drinkable in only the loosest sense. Cheaper than dirt, this stuff could gag a moose at ten paces.
Seeds: For growing plants. These are all cavern plants that must be planted indoors in soil, mud, or "fertilizer". Plants usually take 2-6 months between harvests.
4 Crowns:
Spelunker's Vine: A vine capable of growing on solid stone. It is incredibly strong, and makes superior ropes.
2 Crowns:

Rock Nuts: Seeds that sprout into quarry bushes. Quarry bushes can be harvested without killing the plant, live for several years and can grow very large if unharvested. Their leaves and seeds are edible, and one can be brewed while the other ground into a paste.
Pig Tail Seeds: Grows into pig tails, a plant that produces fibres to be woven into thread. The whole plant can be brewed into rum.
Dimple Sprouts: Sprouts of a dimple cup, which produces no seeds. They will grow to maturity and start budding off, producing more sprouts. Whole plants can be ground for dye. Unbrewable.
1 Crown:
Cavern Stalk Spawn: Cavern stalks are like plump helmet's little brother who nobody likes. Stupidly easy to grow, they're often impossible to get rid of, contaminating fields of more useful crops and choking them out. They're edible raw, but taste like moldy bread and aren't brewable.
Materials: Raw materials, the products of manufacturers.
