One Ring

The One Ring is a powerful magical ring created by the Dark Lord Sauron to help him rule over the people of Middle-Earth.

Worn, it makes one invisible to physical beings. It also extends the life of the possessor.

The One Ring is evil, ridiculously shiny and tempting, and as a result can influence actions as well as corrupt the possessors.

Some Mary Sues have created extra Rings of Power.
