===Sting===
'''Sting''' is the [[sword]] wielded by [[Bilbo Baggins|Bilbo]] and [[Frodo Baggins]]. It was made by the [[Elves]] of Gondolin in the First Age, and its blade glows blue if Orcs are near. It was found alongside the swords [[Glamdring]] and [[Orcrist]] during the events of ''[[The Hobbit]]'' when Bilbo and his companions came upon the hoard of the trolls they met earlier. More a dagger than a sword, Bilbo got the small sword to fit his size. After defeating the spiders of Mirkwood he named the sword "Sting". When Bilbo left the Shire in ''[[Lord of the Rings]]'', he took Sting with him to Rivendell. Before the Fellowship set out from Rivendell, Bilbo gave Frodo his sword Sting and his [[mithril-shirt]]. [[Samwise Gamgee]] carries Sting for a while after leaving the supposedly dead Frodo, but later returns it to him.

===Mithril-shirt===
'''Mithril-shirt''' was a small [[chainmail|chainmail shirt]] made of ''[[mithril]]''. It was given to [[Bilbo Baggins]] by [[Thorin Oakenshield]] from the hoard of the dragon Smaug in the [[Erebor|Lonely Mountain]]. When Bilbo left the Shire in ''Lord of the Rings'', he took the Mithril-shirt with him to Rivendell. Before the Fellowship set out from Rivendell, Bilbo gave Frodo his sword [[Sting]] and his mithril-shirt. The mithril-shirt was among the things taken from Frodo when he was imprisoned at theTower of Cirith Ungol and later presented to his allies at the Morannon. Gandalf took Frodo's things, which were later returned to him.
==Rings of Power==
The '''Rings of Power''' were a group of twenty rings made by the Elves of Eregion and Sauron. Those who wore one of the Rings of Power were called '''Ring-bearers'''.
===The Three Rings===
The '''Three Rings''' of the Elves were made by [[Celebrimbor]]. These three were not influenced by [[Sauron]], and were free of Sauron's taint, but later were still bound to the One Ring.
 
====Vilya====
'''Vilya''', the '''Ring of Air''' or '''Ring of Sapphire''' was one of the Three Rings. It was a golden ring with a blue stone. Celebrimbor sent the ring Vilya [[Gil-galad]], who later gave it to Elrond before his death in the Siege of Barad-dûr.
 
====Nenya====
'''Nenya''', the '''Ring of Adamant''' and the '''Ring of Water''', was one of the Three Rings. It was a ring made of ''mithril'' and set with a white stone. The ring Nenya was given to the Lady [[Galadriel]], who used it to preserve and protect [[Lothlórien]].
 
====Narya====
'''Narya''', also named the '''Ring of Fire''' or '''Red Ring''', was one of the Three Rings. It was a ring with a red stone. According to the ''Unfinished Tales'', Celebrimbor sent Narya together with the ring Vilya to Gil-galad, who later gave Narya to Círdan. According to ''The Lord of the Rings'', it was directly to Círdan. Círdan later gave the ring to Gandalf, who wore it until he left Middle-earth at the end of the Third Age together with the other Ring-bearers.
