How do you think, who was real Lord of One Ring? Sauron,who created One Ring? Maby Witch King,or Frodo,who was ringbearer. Or else, Ring himself?

I suppose it's Sauron. It's mentioned one or two times in the books and I thought Tolkien said so in an interview (or something), too.

It probably is Sauron.
But here's an concept to mull over.
Maybe it's Tom Bombadil who is the real Lord of the One Ring. As it has absolutely no effect on him whatsoever. Sauron craves and desires the Ring at all times. Tom picks it up and wears it as if it were nothing. So does this mean the Ring has no power over him? Or he has power over the Ring?

Sauron.
" There is only one, Lord of the Ring. And he does not share power."

Yes I think it is supossed to be Sauron. The Witch King is his servant, and Frodo is not evil.

In my opinion, the Ring itself is the lord and master over all. It creates all the evil and corruption in Middle Earth. Now some would say that Sauron must be the Lord as he created the ring, but what if the One was an entity in itself, a spirit of sorts, and it corrupted Melkor and Sauron and it was the one that made Sauron create a ring, which it then possessed. Then it would be the Ring that was lord and Sauron would merely be a tool, corrupted by it's evil, as Gollum, Bilbo and Isildur were, and as Frodo was becoming.
Just another way to look at it....

well...Tom Bombadil does not have power of the ring... i know that for sure. dontcha remember when frodo mentions that...he was like "so dude you have got some sort of power over this ring huh?" (well not exactly...), cuz he see's how tom doesn't dissappear or anything... and tom's like "WHOA....BACK the shorty up, no way. let's say...the ring has no power over me" and he's all mystical and everything...so yeah..the ring has no power over him, not the other way around...i would think it's Sauron--the whole tom thing...tom's just..wierd. lol. i mean, he's just completely seperate, that's how you've gotta think of him. nobody really knows too much about tom, he's just always been there...he's just completely different.. yeah.

But I think,it was One Ring himself. Because, withotut this Ring, Sauron can`t compel three elven rings. Yes,Sauron create a One Ring,but I think, Ring,with Sauron`s power now is little bit independent,and he can`t fully affect the One Ring.

I definatley think it was Sauron. It cant be Tom because Tom represents all that is good, and the Ring represents all that is evil. You are either good or evil.

The Lord of the One Ring is Sauron. He's the actual Lord of the Rings. I don't know how many people have told me that it's Frodo!

Pippin once said that Frodo was it, but that made Gandalf really angry, as it is really Sauron. The Ring answers to Sauron alone, no other, and Sauron made it to use it as a tool to take control over the earth. So yeah, Sauron is The Lord of the Rings.

Tolkien is in some ways the Lord of the Ring! ha ha! Good point. But I think that it's Sauron, because he made It, and as Aragorn said,"The One Ring answers to Sauron alone . It has no other master!" And, since It has a master, therefore It can't be Lord of Itself. |

Tolkien is in some ways the Lord of the Ring! ha ha! I totally agree with you! But, if he's not a choice, then I would have to say that it is Sauron. |
