I just don't think this is a good idea to do at all, for 2 reasons.

1. Since Ring-Forging is such a big topic in middle-earth, I'm almost certain Mevans has his own plans about it. It's very likely that plan will come late into the mod, but the plan is still probably there.

2. The rings themselves are all Long-Term effects, changing civilizations for the better/worse. The 3 rings? All dedicated to stopping the fading away of things, something you can't really put in the mod. The 7? Increasing Nation's wealth. The 9? Admittedly, the 9 were used to "corrupt" individuals, but it was still a long time for them to be corrupted. The One Ring itself took several years on Gollum, and quite a few weeks on Frodo/Sam.

Even a Lesser ring would still have to be dedicated to long-term use, with all this precedent about nearly every documented ring in middle-earth.

P.S: I like the signet ring idea, but not enough to kudos the whole post.
