Runes don't actually have power in themselves. You are asking something like, "If I want to say a word, what letters do I use?" But if you don't speak the language, a word is just noise and has no meaning.

There is a scene in Egil's saga where Egil has to do magic to cure a girl of her wasting sickness because a well-meaning but ignorant suitor of hers had "put runes on her"

Runes are a non-rational language for the transference of certain forces. If you have no knowledge or grasp of these forces it naturally doesn't matter what you say or don't say, just like it doesn't really matter or make sense if my cat jumps on the keyboard and kjhlkluhhab sjgl;kuhop0-

If you're looking to create an insigna, I would personally perform a ritual before drawing upon the runes, if you're looking for inspiration. First, focus upon opening up a gateway, a nexion between yourself and the power. Next, conjuring up their energy, dive into the bag/holder and grab whichever number of runes speak to you. When you are satisfied with the number of runes you've drawn, combine them in any fashion you desire.

What matters most is the resonation between yourselves. If you're looking to keep closer to the runes themselves, I would use any combination of these as bases for inscription:
>joy wunjo
>warrior teiwaz
>protection algiz
>strength uruz
>wholeness Sowelu
>journey raido
>movement ehwaz
>harvest jera
>growth berkana

I would recommend you give this book a read. It may serve as something of interest for you. It is called Aegishjalmur, The Book of Dragon Runes.

Preferably on a mage plate

Don't messs with this. if you pick the wrong god, demon, or sigil. You might make them a slave or zombie. You might even slightly increase the power of a lesser creature. Stick with what you have in your culture. If you are in America use a St Christopher medal or something like that.
