SO AS EVERYONE HERE WHO'S READ/SEEN LOTR PROBABLY KNOWS, THE RING NEEDS A PERMISSIONS POST LIKE BURNING. HERE IT IS, FOR YOUR PERMISSION DECIDING PLEASURE.


So. People. Here's the deal:

The Ring is crazy manipulative. Like crazy manipulative. Also highly addictive. Also it corrupts mostly everyone who even looks at it like ever. it is magical heroin trufax guys It is highly persuasive and can do limited mindreading/telepathy stuff, and can gain a whole lot of control over most minds/wills given the time. TIME REQUIRED VARIES.

It can curse folks.

It can turn itself and folks invisible on the physical plane. They are highly visible on the non physical plane.

With the exception of invisibility, which requires physical contact, cursing, which requires conscious direction, and mindreading, which doesn't work so well from a distance, these powers are on all the time, including over the network. HOWEVER, the effect is much more watered down then it would be for someone meeting him in person. Over the network, in text the effect is all but nonexistent, video is the most effective (though still far less then if he was next to you), and voice is a happy medium. MOSTLY THE EXTENT OF ANY INFLUENCE HE HAS OVER THE COMMUNICATOR is to ping people as interesting and someone they want to get to know better.

So with this in mind: if your character is God, a god, the manifestation of something like a period of time, or something similarly unusual, the Ring may not work on them at all. This is up to you!

For everyone else, everything the Ring does requires time. How long it takes varies from person to person, ranging from split seconds to years to decades, and so forth. If you want to avoid all this evil, just say as much and we can assume they're one of the more absurdly strong-willed ones.

(If you don't want the ring to TRY to corrupt them, though, it may be best to just avoid interacting with it altogether, as that's what it tries to do by default, and what most of its powers are skewed towards)

If you want to opt out of everything, tell me and I'll do my best avoid your characters. For everyone else, please fill out the following:



Thank you for your time.

Character Name: Hiei ([livejournal.com profile] violentsoftie)
Would the Ring have power over them? Maaaaybe? I will answer other questions in order to elaborate.
Is it allowed to manipulate/corrupt them? Okay so it is semi-canon that Hiei is just so evil on his own that evil things that corrupt people have a limited effect on him. Canon example being him being cursed with a spell or something that turns you evil and makes you do the bidding of whoever cast the spell. Hiei rolls with the commands of the guy, takes on his Jagan form, and prepares to unleash his most powerful attack on his friends--then, at the last second, he comes back into himself, delivers a witty line and blasts the villain instead. It is then explained that it didn't work because Hiei was already evil. Which is silly I know, but I guess the same thing could conceivably happen with the Ring? so sorry for the tl;dr.
If so, what do you feel is a plausible timeframe for its effects to be noticeable? Uh, either immediately with a similarly quick throw-off, or over a matter of weeks.
Is it allowed to read their minds/use telepathy and to what extent? Hiei has no psychic defenses, so go to town.
Curse them? Sho'.
Would the Ring&any related parties be invisible to them? I don't think people wearing the ring would be totally invisible to him, because he can see supernatural shit with his Jagan eye.
Anything else I should know: I know I make no sense so if you ever want to mess around with Hiei just. message me or something, I will try to be more coherent for you.

Character Name: Ness ([livejournal.com profile] soonillbe)
Would the Ring have power over them? oh probably
Is it allowed to manipulate/corrupt them? yessss
If so, what do you feel is a plausible timeframe for its effects to be noticeable? I'd say a matter of months, Ness is fairly strong willed and has also purged his evil side once before.
Is it allowed to read their minds/use telepathy and to what extent? Yes, Ness' mind is an open book.
Curse them? Sho'
Would the Ring&any related parties be invisible to them?yes
Anything else I should know: can't think o' nothing.

Character Name: Leo ([livejournal.com profile] rocksfallidie)
Would the Ring have power over them? not sure (I know, I fail in multiple ways ._. )
Is it allowed to manipulate/corrupt them? It is free to try.
If so, what do you feel is a plausible timeframe for its effects to be noticeable? Leo is almost obscenely loyal to Soldier Blue, so I think that is a special level of stubbornness that ought to count for quite a lot. So months? I guess?
Is it allowed to read their minds/use telepathy and to what extent? Leo can block out telepathy if he wants to, but he's usually pretty open to it considering it's how he communicates. So it can, but if it disturbs him Leo will probably block it out.
Curse them? ya
Would the Ring&any related parties be invisible to them? ya
Anything else I should know: Leo is mute, he communicates through telepathy.
