Wich where the 7 dwarf-rings.
I havent read anything about a dwarf with one of the 7 rings. Is there anything written about their powers or their owners?

UT or the appendixes of tLotR would be your best bet for information on the seven. We know very little about the seven rings of the dwarves and even less about the nine so don't expect anything very in depth.

There is also a little information in the chapter Of The Rings Of Power And The Third Age in the Silmarillion.
Appendix A of RoTK does tell who two of the owners of the last of the Seven to remain free were, and what happened to this ring.

Well that Silmarillion-chapter is hardly very useful. But don't anyone know any dwarf with one of the 7 rings?

Thrain was the only one mentioned that had one, but it was taken from him when he was imprisoned in Dol Gulder.

I believe that Durin also had one.....in Moria. Thrain's was taken by Sauron in Mirkwood Fortress, Dul Guldor

Erebor was founded after the fall of Moria, by Moria dwarves. The ring of Durin III (the chief ring of the seven) is the same one Thrain II had when captured and imprisoned in Dol Guldur.

Hmmm, intressting.
I probably have to study the middle-earth history a little more. I'v only read "Bilbo", "LOTR-trilogy" and "Silmarillion", you see... smilies/wink.gif
