Rings of Power

From Lotro-Wiki.com

"Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,

One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie."

-J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings.

Great rings crafted by the Noldorin Elves of Eregion with the help of Annatar (Sauron). All but the Three Elven rings were handled (and corrupted) directly by Sauron. After the One Ring was forged the Three were hidden, but the others were gifted by Sauron to the great leaders among the races of Men and Dwarves
