Yup. Here are cards depicting the story of the Ring, starting with, of course, the Ring itself!
•The One Ring, The Least of Rings
Each minion skirmishing the Ring-bearer is strength -1.
Response: If the Ring-bearer is about to take a wound or a threat is about to be added, he or she wears The One Ring until the regroup phase.
While wearing The One Ring, each time the Ring-bearer is about to take a wound or a threat is about to be added, add a burden instead.
"’...you should find this thief and get from him, willing or no, a little ring, the least of rings, that once he stole. It is but a trifle that Sauron fancies...’"
A Once Fair Shape
Event • Shadow
Reveal Sauron from your hand to discard a Free Peoples artifact or Free Peoples condition.
"For in that time he was not yet evil to behold, and they received his aid and grew mighty in craft, whereas he learned all their secrets, and betrayed them..."
Forged in Secret
Condition • Support Area
When you play this condition, you may reinforce a token X times, where X is the number of rings you spot.
Regroup: Exert a minion twice (or spot Sauron) and discard this condition to exhaust a companion (except the Ring-bearer) with resistance 4 or less.
"’...for he made that Ring himself, it is his, and he let a great part of his own former power pass into it...’"
•Sauron, The Deceiver
Minion • Maia
Strength-24
Vitality-5
Roaming-6
Damage +1. Fierce. When you play Sauron, you may spot X burdens and exert him X times to place X exertions on companions bearing an artifact.
Sauron may only be assigned to skirmish companions with resistance 0.
"Then Sauron the Deceiver gave to them nine Rings of Power. Blinded by their greed, they took them without question. One by one falling into darkness."
By Shattered Blade
Event • Skirmish
Discard a artifact borne by a companion to wound a minion skirmishing another companion twice.
"’...Isildur, son of the king, took up his father’s sword.’"
•Passed to Men
Condition
Strength +1
Resistance -1
To play, spot a Ring-bearer. Bearer must be the Ring-bearer.
Skirmish: Add a burden to wound a minion skirmishing bearer.
"’...who, above all else, desire power...’"
A Will of Its Own
Event • Response
If the Ring-bearer puts on The One Ring, discard 4 cards from your hand to take off The One Ring.
"’It betrayed Isildur, to his death.’"
Keep watching! |

When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.

Interesting. But it could probably benefit from SOME strength/vitality/resistance boost, because otherwise I don’t see it getting much use.

I was justing reading the part in FotR about Sauron’s messenger calling the One "the least of rings, just a fancy, etc.", so this is pretty cool. I agree with Dain, though; some sort of bonus is needed. Maybe hunter 1?

shouldn’t it be strength + something or offer some bonus aside from the threat thing

Okay, I gave the ring a strength bonus, and then added two more cards. |

"Reinforce a conditon"? Did you mean "reinforce a token"? Second ability seems okay, though.

*Whew* These are quite the challenge to make. More later.
Yeah, Sauron is always tough.
This guy’s pretty good, but I think that might be a better cost. Maybe not, but for the likes of Sauron seems WAY too good. |

Added 3 more cards, and put Sauron’s cost up to 9 (which I think is reasonable, considering he wont be fighting very much). |

I would lower the cost to or make it only 3 cards. Sweet DCs! |

I agree with AP. I’d lower the number of cards discarded, personally. |
