 My idea for this is to give a good way for rings to be made/used/found/stolen along with how many ring slots a player should have.

Pretty much you’d have to go to a special location (mount doom, Eregion or Erebor) and there you’d find a special table called a Ring Table (it’d be unbreakable) which you’d use to forge a ring of that faction (Mordor, Elf or dwarf).

You’d need to use appropriate metals and crystals to make them and adding different metals would increase the ring’s strength. You must use five ingots to make the base of the ring, at least one nugget or crystal to make the jewel (you can have up to three) and a scribe to make the runes (scribes would be language specific e.g quenyan scribe). Once you’d done all this it would make a ring.

Powers for different rings would change with the race, Evil rings would give strength and Intimidation. Elf Rings would give Regen and Tranquility. Dwarf Rings would give haste and Inspiration. The amount of these effects it does varies on what materials are used. All rings also give invisibility.

Rings could be bound to a master ring which would allow you to use those rings powers without even holding them. You bind a ring to it’s master by putting two rings in a forge table together, the master ring on top and the lesser ring on the bottom.

You start with one ring slot and gain more by reaching certain levels of alignment, a new ring slot is gained every 200 alignment you gain for one of the three factions (mordor, Durin’s folk and High elf). The maximum amount of slots possible is twenty.

You can also steal some of the rings of power (e.g nenya, vilya, narya, the one ring) by killing their hosts. You can find different rings of power wherever that person is. You can also gsin control of different areas thrugh gaining rings, e.g getting Nenya would grant you control of Lothlorien, getting one of the dwarven rings would grant you control of a different dwarf clan. Some of the dwarven rings would be found in the bellies of different dragon carcasses. The one ring would be found by killing Frodo. You can remove different rings from Sauron's control by reforging them at a ring table.
