Ring Givers - And who are they?

Not a faction/sect I'm familiar with.

Can someone give me a brief outline of what they're about, or point me in the direction of where I might be able to find out, please?

If it's post Faction War, I know nothing. :/

Hmm, the Ring-Givers were, invented either here or at Mimir, weren't they? I don't think they show up in any of the 2e canon.

Nope, they're canon. On further delving, I've uncovered reference to Jeremo the Natterer and the Ring-Givers in In The Cage: A Guide To Sigil.

It's altogether possible they might feature in the Planes of Chaos box set, (being Ysgard based and pre FW) but I've not got that, so I don't know.

And if you´re a DM the ring-givers are a great sect to give your players gifts they actually don´t want. Like a super weapon that does immense amounts of damage but belonged to an Abyssal Lord who wants it back very bad. Before you know it your one item gift ends up in a full fledged campaign...
