We see one of the tablets in Gogoroth's cellar. It lights up as guardians die and will wipe the team if 6 kick the bucket. This is the only time we see one of the tablets in game, as far as I know.

Indeed.

Could the pillars that block the Warpriest's ultimate attack also be considered tablets? Don't they have symbols on the front?

Also, the marathon backstory at one point was a bunch of immortals fighting it out due to boredom :)

Do you mean at one time Marathon's backstory included these bored immortals but was later changed, or that there's more about Marathon's ancient races/gods fighting buried within the terminal text of the games?

I very generally know about the stuff that happened in Marathon but its been quite a while since I've read through everything and there's a lot to remember, so feel free to bring up anything you think might apply to Destiny! :)
