Gimli ringbearer? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Whether or not Gimli would have been a good choice for ringbear might be debatable but he never would have been given the chance. At the time of the Council of Elrond there is a lot of distrust between Elves and Dwarves (as well as between the other races) I don't think the Elves would have allowed a Dwarf to bear the ring.
