Yeah, Boromir was tempted by the ring just by proximity. Nevermind, how a person plans to make a chicken cooperate with heading into a blasted hellscape and up a volcano.
If that's the "plan", the smarter version is to just drag it in a bag behind you.
Every day the ring is passed to the next person in the rotation, out in the open and acknowledged by all. The new bearer has to pledge, "I definitely will not be a punk-ass bitch and try to keep the ring, and I promise to suck everyone's cock if I do. "
they could have forged the ring into a chain. not like an necklace, like using the ring as a chain link, make I'm mithril, people might still be tempted to use it, but no one could wear it.
my guy, smeagol was living in a cave because of the ring... i don't think the ring connected to a chain link will change a thing, especailly if it's wearable lol.
no, but it would help a bit
Didn't the ring adjust the size so the bearer could wear it though?
I'm imagining a Hula hoop size so it'll go around your waste now
It did and also being near it corrupted you also.
