Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown is a signature ring of Forty-One Supreme Beings.

Description

The Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown was once worn only by the members of Ainz Ooal Gown. This ring signifies their membership in the guild. In total, there are a hundred rings, forty-one belonging to the members of the guild and fifty-nine spares. Since the decline of Ainz Ooal Gown and the subsequent teleportation of the entire guild base into the New World, Ainz has begun to use the remaining rings to reward his servants for their efforts and maintain their loyalty.

Appearance

Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown is a silver wrought ring with an amethyst embedded in the center of it. The guild's symbol is also imprinted on the amethyst in black.

Abilities

Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown is a type of ring whose use was solely for traveling in and out within the Great Tomb of Nazarick. It allows the wearer to travel instantaneously anywhere within the confines of the necropolis except a few specific areas. Additionally, it is also capable of instantly changing its size to fit its user's finger size.

Moreover, any guild members of Ainz Ooal Gown who wore that ring would automatically appear in the Round Table Room when they logged into the game, barring special circumstances. Therefore, if any guild members returned to the Great Tomb of Nazarick, they would do so in that room.^[1] Ainz rarely wore the ring because its power always had a constant effect on him. The ring's power cannot be cancelled so easily unless Ainz unequipped it first.

However, the only places where this ring could not teleport its wearer was to the Throne Room and the various guild members’ personal rooms. Since Nazarick was warded to block teleportation magic into or within itself, the ring is very handy and useful under certain circumstances. For instance, whoever is equipped with this ring could gain access to the Treasury, since that room required the person using it to be able to enter freely.^[2]

The only flaw of the ring was that while it allowed its user to teleport freely within Nazarick, it could only teleport straight to the rooms that were either marked as important or special in Nazarick. This was not the case with rooms that had been deemed as "normal" from the start and thus one could not teleport straight to them.^[3]
