You can move objects and characters to a random location in a group, but I would like to also be able to set properties to one of a group (for either locations, objects, or characters) at random.

Using operations to create sets, I could narrow down a temporary group to a certain number of items or even one item, but to then choose one and set a property of another item to that one item requires a task for every acceptable item and a restriction to make sure only one runs.

There is no other way to currently do this, and depending on how many times you want to do this, the combination explosion would get out of control rather fast.
