Description

For a RPG
Viking design

Notes: 
This artefact was found in a room sealed with an enchantment. This enchantment seemed to be of Arcadian origin, as lighting the candles at each side of the doorway, made the door appear once every onlooker had looked away. 
Inside the room, there was a bookstand in the middle of the room facing this tablet. The room had obviously been untouched, yet no dust had truly settled. As well, if you enter the room, and stand by the bookstand, you have to back out of the room again to exit. If you turn to face the exit, you will find yourself facing a doorway out to a dark cave. 
The tablet is magical though hides it well; It can give the onlooker a riddle which holds a prediction within to the onlooker, but others will not be able to see the same text. As well the prediction is written in the original language of the viewer. Say you are Indian and beholds the tablet, an Indian writing will appear to you, the same goes for any other origin. It is perceived to be a means of which the tablet is ensured to pass on the prediction, or lock your future possibility to that set prediction it gives. 

The tablet itself is of Scandinavian origin, yet some of the symbolism differs from classical stone carvings. It is clear to see it depicts a frame of Jörmungandr, the world serpent, and a battle with high death tolls, possible against lycanthropes.

The background can be interpreted in many ways, there’s an unlikely spiral in the middle of what could look as a mouth. This interpretation will be left to the beholder of the tablet.
