Ring of Languages (Magic Ring)

This ring is basically a limited version of the ring of tongues. Instead of gaining the ability to fully understand any language known by any creature within 30', the wearer learns a number of languages conferred by the ring while it is worn. The wearer not only understands these languages, but is also able to speak, read and write the languages as if they wear native tongues. Note that once the ring is removed from the finger, the wearer loses the ability to understand the languages the ring possesses, it is possible, however, for a character whose Intelligence has increased (thereby allowing the learning of one or more additional languages), or for a character with the ability to learn another language, to learn a language possessed by the ring merely by wearing it. This process requires the wearer to wear the ring consecutively for one month, after which time (due to the magically accelerated ability to learn) the PC understands the language entirely, without the ring's further assistance. Only one language may be learned at a time.
The number of languages possessed by a ring is determined by rolling 2d4: the languages are picked from the table listed below or from a language table of the DM's own devising. Duplications on this table are merely rerolled.
