We know that the men who had the rings of power fell under the spell of Sauron and the elves never fell under his spell. But what about the dwarves? What happened with their rings and those that bore them?

They became inert like the elven rings.

4 of the seven were destroyed.

Assuming the 3 Sauron held were lost forever.

No dwarves had Rings of power at the time of LOTR


As for what happened to Dwarven Ring bearers, it was supposed to be similar to the rings given to men. But they were too hardy and strong willed to fall to the will of Sauron.

So they just got long life and in some cases got super greedy.

The power of the Rings only really worked on the Kingdom of Men.

The Elves took off all of the rings forged by Sauron and never used theme again because they knew what would happen. (they did keep the rings made only by Elven smiths, though, they did not have Sauronvs evil in them).

The Dwarves however were not really affected by the rings. If anything the only effect the rings had in them was to make the Dwarves crave gemstones and precious materials more... So they just dug more and more. They were not manipulated and controlled by Sauron like the rings of men.

One of my favorite GIFs on the internet.
Always makes me laugh.

That one and the one where the monkeys jump on the back of the wild hog and they run away from the spear chunkers.

Two questions. When is the new season of rings power coming back? It’s been two fricking years.

Also. Why did the elves not send more troops to help the men? The barely send any at the battle of helms deep and then at minas tirith (sp) they send none.

I'm sure it's from the Lord of The Rings movies.

That one with the monkeys and the wild hog, I don't know where that came from, but it's hilarious.

This can be said about any adaptation.

LOTR trilogy is certainly better than the films, but Jackson, Walsh, Boyens, cast and crew did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life.

The Elves had long ago given up on Men, they also were leaving Middle Earth so there weren't that many to send
