I can not belive how HARD I laughed at this.

Count Dooku? Tousling Isildurs hair? Questions that have burned in my soul since the beginning of time.

F'in Brilliant.

i always wondered about the whole "wearing an uber powerful ring into battle" thing...seems rather silly. and dangerous.

I know wearing magic rings is a staple of Dungeons & Dragons characters, but I also assumed that they wore their rings under their gauntlets.

Also, wasn't the Ring designed with a simple appearance simply for the point of not looking like anything special and powerful? "Oh, this gold band? It's nothing. Got it out of a box of Cracker Jack." Kind of ruins the effect when everyone still knows it's an artifact of doom.

Also considering he's wearing a black metal armor and wielding a weapon of the same metal, while the ring is a nice golden color and glowing. Kinda seems suspicious, huh?
