==Profile==
===Description:=== 
The urn is a tapering ceramic cylinder the color of sandstone about a foot tall and half that at its widest point. The body of the urn is nine inches tall, narrowing to four inches wide at the base and five inches at the top. The cap of the urn is shaped as a bowed crocodile’s head wearing a Nemes headdress. Additional shallow layers of clay on the body of the urn depict four arms, two legs, a tail and a simple kilt. The arms hold a pair of scales, a quill, a sheet of parchment, and a small satchel. The urn is securely sealed, and covered with a thick layer of dust, as though it has not been disturbed in some time.

The urn has the incredible power of Looking Really Out-Of-Place. It also has a tendency to move around when nobody’s watching it.
===Biography:===
The urn’s known history begins in 112 PI, when it was discovered in the tomb of Queen Hatesh by the shortly-thereafter-renowned archaeologist and explorer Dr. Garfield Hayes. It was kept in Hayes’ personal collection until his unexpected death in 141 PI, at which point it was transferred to the Egyptian National Museum of Ancient History as stipulated in his will. Eight year later, the urn was stolen from the museum along with several other valuable artifacts – and here things get a bit fuzzy. Over the next three decades, the urn was rumored to have appeared in all sorts of unlikely places around the world, up to and including the coronation, assassination, and resurrection of Emperor of the Newer World John F. Kennedy. Despite these claims, and despite the number of people that make these claims, no evidence of its presence at these events has ever surfaced in official records. In 175 PI, a janitorial worker discovered the urn in the back of one of the ENMAH’s massive storage warehouses. It was misplaced about a month before it was scheduled to be put back on display, and hasn’t been seen since.
