Chapter 13: Magical Items
Scripture, Tablets
A tablet is a flat surface, slab, or plaque of
inflexible material suited for or bearing an inscription.
It is relatively thin and may contain a picture
or engraving. Most often, tablets are made of dried
clay. Tablets are the oldest scripture.
01-14 Tablet of Reality: Whatever
is inscribed on this tablet becomes reality.
Therefore, this is one of the most
powerful of all magical items. Only 1 exists
and it is owned by a god. The god will guard
this tablet and it should never fall into the
hands of a mortal.

reads this small tablet will believe that
the wearer is whoever the tessera claims. The
