Emergency backup DE
Sep. 25th, 2015 11:14 amSince it's 11:15 here in Boston and we don't have a DE yet, I'm volunteering one.
The Ring of Gyges is an artifact mentioned in Plato's Republic as part of a moral philosophical exercise; it makes its wearer invisible. The philosophical exercise involved is the question of what a person who has possession of this ring does with it, knowing that it can prevent them from being seen regardless of what they're doing.
What would your pup do if they found themselves in possession of such a ring?
Assume that it not only makes them invisible, but undetectable to other forms of surveillance or perception that would be found in their setting. Also assume that the ring in question was not made by either Sauron or Celebrimbor and therefore carries no risk of wraiths or having to leave for Valinor when you're done with it.
