As far as I know treasure is mostly random.
I say mostly because it is keyed to your level, at lease with respect to
material type.
The game doesn't care what you can use or not.

Welcome to a world that _DOESN'T_ revolve around your character.
This is a good thing.
I'd much rather kill a bow using/chain wearing assassin, then search the
body and find a bow and chain armor than search and find that his gear
has mysteriously changed into things that I can use.
The last character I ran through Daggerfall, wouldn't wear or use
anything that wasn't Red, Gold or Black. The one exception was the
original clothes you start in since you have no control over those.
All material types but dwarven, ebony, admantium and daedric forbidden.
All armor types forbidden.
All ****elds forbidden.
All weapons but daggers and 2handed swords forbidden.
Needless to say this character HAD to start with an ebony dagger.
