[[ImageFile:MillenniumRingMillennium Ring - episode 36.jpgpng|thumb|right|300px|The Millennium Ring]]The '''Millennium Ring''' (Japanese: {{ruby|千|せん}}{{ruby|年|ねん}}{{ruby|輪|リング }}, ''Sennen Ringu'') is one of the [[Millennium Items]]. It was the item held by [[Mahad]] in the past and [[Ryo BakuraRyou]] in the present. It is based on the [[Millennium Ring (manga)|Millennium Ring]] from the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' manga]]. ==Powers==[[File:Millennium Ring anime.png|left|thumb|Yami Bakura holding the Millennium Ring]]The Millennium Ring's can point to other Millennium Items, like a compass. Like the Millennium Puzzle, it had a soul sealed inside of it, in this case a fragment of the soul of [[Zorc Necrophades]] (who had also lost his memories) and a portion of Bakura's past life, Bandit King Bakura. Another well-known power of the Ring is its ability to seal one's soul, or portions of one's soul into other objects, including itself and other Millennium Items. The Millennium Ring can harness the magic of the Shadow Games. It can initiate mystical games where the players cannot be disturbed, cast illusions, and manipulate souls. It also gives the owner other magic powers, including clairvoyance, interfering with the powers of other Millennium Items, immobilizing people, and knocking people unconscious. Like other Millennium Items, it can strengthen the holder's ''ka'', such as when it granted the "Shadow Camouflage" ability to Bandit King Bakura's [[Diabound]]. The Ring has a way of finding itself back to its chosen host, as shown when Bakura mysteriously regained the Ring after [[Tristan Taylor|Tristan]] threw it out of a tower into the forest in Duelist Kingdom. The Millennium Ring has the ability to split the owner's soul in two as seen with [[Alexander The Great]] and [[Yami Alexander]]. The Millennium Ring seems to possess the darkest powers, possibly due to having been corrupted by Zorc's powers ever since its creation in the anime (where it fell into a chasm where the Tablet of Lost Memories rose from and Zorc emerging the first time). Mahad even mentioned that he could sense incredibly evil energy within the Ring when he wore it. Evidence of the evil powers still existing within it is that despite the fact that it is no longer housing the soul and power of Yami Bakura, who was Zorc.
==History==
