Added Herbs and Funeral rites


Hello there! 

This is a smaller update, it's really just three tables/generators.

- The first one, Chimera generator, is rather silly. It's main purpose is to generate random animal hybrids, which, admiteddly, you probably won't use all that often. It can also be used when you need a random animal for some reason - for example as a heraldic figure, sacred animal, and so on.

- The second is about funeral rites and thoughts of afterlife. This is something people often underestimate, but I think these customs and beliefs can be used to give a city a very distinct character - pyramids, burial mounds of funeral pyres affect the city architecture, water or ship burials provide interesting ceremonies for characters to witness or participate in, and so on.

- The last new generator in this update is a Herb generator. It provides you with a name of a herb and with its effect, divided into low fantasy and high fantasy tables (the high fantasy is not yet finished, I'm putting this as the top priority for the next update). The belief in magical properties of herbs and plants was historically widespread, and as we know thanks to scientific research, many herbs really do have healing properties when applied correctly to a specific problem. Herbalism is also a staple in fantasy settings, thanks to Aragorn and rangers.

That's all for this update! If you have any ideas or remarks, pelase let me know in the comments.

Have a nice day!
