The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power has breathed new life into J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium, bringing fans to an almost unrecognizable Middle-earth. The Amazon Prime Video series delves deep into the Second Age, years before the forging of the 20 Rings of Power, including the One Ring. In this time, Elves, Dwarves, and Men live in long-forgotten places like Lindon, Khazad-dûm, and the Southlands, while an ancient evil lurks in the void and another waits in the shadows.
Isildur lacks direction and has done so for many years. While many of his issues are relatable, especially to young people, he isn't always endearing. His friends work exceptionally hard to get where they are as he continues to shirk every opportunity that comes his way. Only in going to Middle-earth does Isildur discover what he loves: fighting and adventure. He leaves Númenór a boy and emerges a man following the battle for the Southlands.
Adding another powerful woman to the world of Tolkien, especially one as willful, strong, and just as Disa, is refreshing. Her faith and resilience perfectly balance Durin's temper and stubbornness. Yet the couple are similar in their willingness for friendship outside their race. Disa doesn't exactly get a chance to show off her true potential, but she will surely prove to be a powerful Queen when the time comes.
Míriel was appointed ruler of Númenór for a reason. She is willing to forsake the ideals of the Faithful, at least on the surface, when it comes to ruling to bring peace. Still, her faith and the events she saw in the palantíri guide her every decision behind the scenes. The Queen Regent's rule is based on the balance of all this.
Bronwyn is one of the most powerful characters in Rings of Power because of her unyielding leadership. Despite some townsfolk questioning and doubting her at every turn, she knows there will be a way forward. Hope is one of the biggest, if not the most important, themes in Tolkien's work, and Bronwyn embodies it. However, there's only so much she can do, being a mortal and one of only two people in Tirharad who know how to defend, fight, and protect.
Celebrimbor has immense ambition, just like his grandfather, Fëanor, but unfortunately, he also inherited the fallen Elf's unwavering desire for glory, no matter the cost. His passionate determination to bend the Mithril clouds his judgment, and he takes Halbrand's advice without question. Once the Mithril bends, Celebrimbor finally gets the gratification of crafting something beautiful and powerful despite the unknown consequences.
With how mysterious Adar is initially, it's not hard to mistake him for Sauron, especially since he's so revered by the orcs and has an unsettling, quiet reflectiveness. He's planting Alfirin seeds one minute and brutally killing someone in the next. He might not be the Dark Lord, but Adar is still pretty terrifying, having once succeeded in killing Sauron himself. Anyone who accomplishes that and is willing to lead and care for a hoard of orcs is powerful.
