Users name non-LOTR characters resisting One Ring
Archived — this story has rotated out of today’s deck. It is kept here in full.
The gist
Fans online are naming non-Lord of the Rings characters they think could resist the One Ring.
The debate tests how a character's willpower and morality hold against corruption.
Background
The One Ring, central to J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, corrupts whoever carries it, and in the story almost no one can willingly give it up. The premise that only a few characters (like Tom Bombadil, or hobbits to a degree) can resist it invites fans to apply the test to characters from other franchises. Such crossover hypotheticals are a recurring pastime in online fandom, though the specific thread and its participants are not documented in the available material.
