Originally posted by the ninjakI didn't read the books either. Voldemort split up his soul into objects so in a sense he immortalized himself unless someone destroyed those objects along with his physical body.
I didn't read the books. He did survive Hell didn't he? He said something to Harry when he resurrected and touched his forehead and sent pure pain in.
I figured someone would argue Voldemort's will is greater than Sauron's which is basically what it comes down to imo as to whether you can master the ring or not.
Well Sauron in his plane was an an inferno with an eye in the center.
Voldemort survived the afterlife and sent that pain into Harry's head but Harry handled it well.
Then again a simple hobbit held the ring for a long time and withstood its effects.
You would think that if Saruman had put on the ring he would have become immensely powerful. So would Voldemort due to his immortality.
I believe he would sooner or later become a slave to the ring. But initially he would become very powerful. Enough to destroy Hogwarts with ease.
Is Voldemort as wise as Galadriel? I doubt it.
