I know next to nothing about Harry Potter, so I can say nothing concerning that. However, I did have a thought while reading this thread about Frodo and what changed him.

I'm re-reading the books now, and just yesterday, I read this:

In the end, the Ring was taken from Frodo by force. I don't entirely believe that it broke his mind, but that may have something to do with his changed life afterwards.
