Different attacks cause different corruptions

[zasvid]

I think that the One had different effects then other Suaron-made rings. He didn't made it to make its wearer a slave, as with the nine and seven.
He made it to rule them all. So maybe it wouldn't turn its wearers into anything else then immortal & haunted by thoughts of Ring creatures.

And with addition of corruption by Rings some races (hobbits, dwarves, elves, maias, ents, maybe thunderlords) should have new 'Corruption resistance' flag. These should prevent them from turning to Nazgul.

Who said dwarves couldn't turn into Nazgul? It would take a while, but still...

Oh, another idea: If you're an elf, maia, or thunderlord, the One Ring will corrupt you to the utmost extreme, but will also give you, in addition to those really awful corruptions, godlike powers.

If you're an ent, the One Ring will have some pretty horrible effects on you, but won't corrupt you that much.

Tolkien did. From LOTR, Appendix A, part III:

But they were made from their beginning of a kind to resist most steadfastly any domination. Though they could be slain or broken, they could not be reduced to shadows enslaved to another will; and for the same reason their lives were not affected by any Ring, to live either longer or shorter because of it

Cool. Thanks, guest.

Hmm... how about rings of power having pretty awful affects on hobbits, but being unable to turn them into wraiths?
