Noxomanus has just left Hobbiton.
The Ring and the other races

Now we all know Men,Maiar and Hobbits wore the One Ring and how it worked out it's power on them.
We also have an idea of what it would do to the Dwarves, should they have gotten hold of it.

But do we have any idea about what would happened if an Elf, an Eagle, an Ent, a Warg, a Troll,an Orc, a Dragon had been a Ringbearer? How would the Ring have worked out on them?

I guess Orcs, Trolls and Wargs would have given it to Sauron, as he was their master. An Elf might have tried to use it for the good of Arda,failing in the effort.
An Ent might have tried to use it's power to restore nature a la Sam's vision of what he could do with the Ring when he wore it.

Now Dragons and Eagles are very interesting. Both of them are unlike the humanoid races so may have reacted in a very different way. With Dragons, I don't really know if they'd give the Ring to Sauron...for one, they were not that close to each other, then the Dragons have a rather strong personality and last but not least, an extra powerful, invisible(!) Dragon might be a very dangerous enemy. As for Eagles..I have no clue.

Any thoughts?
