Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Halfling Scout

Whenever Frodo Baggins or another legendary creature you control enters, the Ring tempts you. As long as Frodo Baggins is your Ring-bearer, it must be blocked if able.

"Few have ever come hither through greater peril or on an errand more urgent." —Elrond

If Frodo Baggins is your Ring-bearer, only one creature is required to block it. Other creatures may also block it and are free to block other creatures or not block at all.

2023-06-16wotc

Each time the Ring tempts you, you must choose a creature if you control one.

2023-06-16wotc

The Ring can tempt you even if you don't control a creature. In this case, abilities that trigger "whenever the Ring tempts you" will still trigger.
