As the name of the series implies, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is focused on how the Dark Lord Sauron (Charlie Vickers) forged the Rings of Power as part of a scheme to control all of Middle-earth. As of season 3, the three Elven Rings, Seven Rings for the Dwarf-lords, and the Nine Rings for Mortal Men have all been made, while Sauron is working endlessly to complete his project by building the One Ring to rule them all.
That's a lot of magic jewelry to keep track of! If you need a refresher, we’ve put together a list of where the rings are and who is currently wearing them.

While in disguise and calling himself Halbrand, Sauron inspired the elven smith Celebrimbor (Charles Edwards) to create three rings that would save the Elves of Middle-earth from losing their immortality. He forged them in the season 1 finale using mithril Elrond (Robert Aramayo) received from his friend Durin IV (Owain Arthur), combined with a knife made of gold and silver from Valinor.
Even though Sauron didn’t have a direct hand in creating these rings, Elrond feared Sauron would use them to manipulate the Elves. So he stole the rings and took them to Círdan the Shipwright (Ben Daniels) in the Elven capital Lindon. Círdan is the oldest and wisest elf in Middle-earth and he offered to throw the rings into the ocean.
