The Mysterious 10th Bearer. - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

While reading this thread I got many different suggestions for the tenth "bearer".

My finger points at Elrond too.
Or perhaps some of his elves, but then again Elrond would have been too afraid of his servants falling for the lure of the ring, so he did it by himself or with a little help of Gandalf. (They propably discussed about it, Gandalf was near when Elrond did it, but didn't really take part at the process itself.)
In Rivendell there were many talented elves, and I'm more than sure that there was atleast one who knew how to make a new chain or repair the old one. (Propably a new one, where would have the ring been held while repairing the old chain? In Eldond's kitchen drawer with the forks and spoons? Yeah, didn't think so.)

And that point of Morsul The Dark, of the tenth Nazgul and Fellowship member really just makes my opinnion stronger.

JRRT did deffinitely love the idea of making the numbers of the good & bad & fallen equal.
