Title: Demon Rings
Post by: adamn on July 21, 2009, 07:44:19 AM
Hello.
I was recently browsing e-Bay and discovered something that I believe is fake.
Some people are selling rings, bracelets, necklaces, etc, that are supposed to contain the soul (or whatever) of a demon. The trapped demon helps you with your money troubles, your love life and they claim to offer many more powers and abilities.
Some also claim that they have trapped djinn, dragons and vampires in these rings too.
Are these real? Do they work? Or are people just being conned out of quite a bit of money.

Good question- One that I dont know, just cause I haven't ever heard of it.  I wouldn't know for sure. 
I do know that there are plenty of ways of trapping a demon... Through a shard of broken glass- in a Triangle or Circle depending on the spirit.  Even in a idol or statue.  So I'm sure the idea could be real. But the real question is wether you think the seller knows enough to be able to trap a spirit of that power in the object.

  Selling on EBay?  I'm sorry, but only the foolish would buy something like this, and not because it has a "Demon Spirit".  It is obviously a fake, for fools to pretend that they are dark and mysterious.  Let me ask you this.  Why would someone who has the knowledge and skill to trap such an entity simply sell it to the highest bidder?  Would they not offer it to someone of more consequence, to someone who could further the persons own ambitions?  With Ebay it could easily land in some foolish emo's possession, which while easily controlled would ultimately be a useless exercise in power.  No my friend, don't fall for such an obvious ploy.  Besides, if it really were to have a trapped demon, and god forbid the holding seal somehow is broken, what will you do with a pissed off demon that was forced into imprisonment and is now in your possession?

I was never going to buy one.

Setting aside the issue of the items on Ebay which are most certainly fakes. The idea of trapping a demon/spirit inside an item is found in many mythologies. The most well known, & the one that sounds like what the ebay sellers are going for, is the Djinn or genie in a bottle/lamp/gem. So, yes it is possible to trap a spirit in an inanimate object.

  Then pick a Senator or Governor and send it anonymously, as a gift.  Worse case, they give it to someone in the household, however, the effect would cause some true mischief.

I have two sets of demon rings, there are five rings on each set and when I put them on, someone always has hell to pay.

they are made of brass, just incase someone didnt get it.

oops 4 instead of 5, "brass knucks" , just kidding anyway

on a more serious note, I guess it would be posable for a demon to be traped in jewlery, a dimond or crystal of some sort, but I doubt if there has been anyone alive capable of traping one in the last thousand years or so.

but I guess it would be posable for a demon to link itself with an object, if it waunted to do so.
but why the hell would anyone waunt to own something that would only bring them trouble?

you cant control a demon,
It can control us, but we cant control it.

I have seen these myself. The only thing that has possibly been done to this jewelery is one of the millions of rituals that can be found in one of the millions of variations of pagan/wican/magi/christian/jewish (almost any you could think of) religions or whatever belief system there using. If you believe in that then yes there is a trapped spirit in it. Since the word demon can be translated to mean a million different things it could be anything from a spirit to an angel to a demon to nothing thats in the jewel. If your particular belief or just theories says that demons can be trapped then there could be. I bought a friend a ring off ebay that had apparantly been blessed to provide the wearer with more patience. I must say it worked. Could be coincidence, could be magic, thats up for me and my friend to determine, no one else. Just dont expect to buy one and actualy see a cloven hoofed, pointy horned, fallen angel inside it. Im afraid it doesnt work like that.

 I've seen rings and bracelets advertised to help with wealth, prosperity, patience, etc... but I've never heard of someone claiming there was a demon or spirit inside. Do they not realize how easily these things are broken? Especially if it's something you wear in your day to day life?? Bang your hand on something and the ring breaks... if there really is a demon inside... you're farking screwed.

Im not saying that those rings on e-bay were real but i do have a ring with a spirit trapped inside. i confiscated it from a young man who started acting a little wierd after he fell upon this ring. he bought it at a flea market and started wearing it around all the time. he never took it off. I asked him to see the ring and he almost bit my head off over it. so i argued wiht him for about an hour trying to get him to give me the ring when a buddy of mine walked in. he had noticed the same thing i had (mind you this had been going on for like a week) we started preying on his weaknesses and eventually got the ring from him. after a couple days he went back to normal. to this day i have the ring sealed in a locked container in my garage until i can get the proper means to destroy it.

So yews they are real

Post by: matthew321 on July 26, 2010, 04:30:31 PM
Tronth I would do as you have done, Confiscate and store for later. However I am not sure I would destroy it. I would meditate on the best action for a long period of time. I would determine if communication with spirit is possible and safe. If it is then I would talk things over and ask spirit what it wants. I would ask its name and do research.

It may want out and go to heaven or it may be a demon who wants to make a necklace out of you.

I know it is indeed possible to put spirits into objects but that usually requires their consent. Unless they are being trapped inside for punishment. To actually have a real entity in an object and not an image or a blessing of the entity is rare. These objects are to be handled carefully.
Title: Re: Demon Rings

Well i never had the intention of destroying the spirit inside by destroying the ring i would thus release the spirit back to its realm

ok i have one word for this, even tho its possible to trap DEMONS but if u think 'bout it with COMMON SENSE then its completely understandable that this is for sure a SCAM. i mean come on trapping a DEMON only pisses 'em off even more and then torture u even more for that, not back down and be a slave XD. u've got to remember that demons don't like to play nice unless they get to hurt u later  *<:)

The closest thing I would say to this that would be real is a piece of jewelery that has had a spell done over it for luck, love or something along those lines. I wouldn't just dismiss the possibility of a spirit being trapped in it. After all, don't we spend every day discussing demons, monsters and magic? I personally doubt it but I do not dismiss the possibility.

Its amazing what some people will sell. Also it depends on the persons definition of the words. Demon can be used very loosely, it could just be a spirit and trapped could just be another way of saying tethered or attached. Much like the christan belief that a cross carries devine protection or a Saint Christopher pendant can give us guidance by Saint Christopher himself. Some people just jazz up the lingo to make it sound cooler than it is.

  BRAVO!!!!  This thought had occurred to me long ago (though my term was Poltergeist).  After all it would be much easier to tether a spirit to an object than it would be a demon would it not.  That and the spirit would cause just as much damage to the untrained observer.  Also the one who attaches the spirit would run a much smaller risk by dealing with a human spirit as opposed to a demonic one. 

  I want to ask a question.  What does a circle represent in magic?

  Oh hell, I just can't wait for someone to answer this so....

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_circle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_circle)

  Now what about the metals used to make the rings?  Yes, metals posses a definite place when used in magics.  I'll let you guys play with that one for a bit.  (I do however think we have diluted the trapped entity from Demon down to ghost/poltergeist).

Quite true. I wear a pair of Tungsten steel rings; one is my original wedding band, the other is its replacement. Each has a definite and noticeable effect on my focus, and it increases exponentially over time... Also, just to get you kids interested; Tungsten steel is just about the only alloy or element which WILL NOT accept any imbuing, or cannot be imbued with ease. So, no spells, ties, or entrapments can be laid within my rings.

talking about focus, I can open up all chakras from root to troath at will without meditation, I'dd say you don't really need external items to get focus, just practice...
Also
Wizard's first rule!!!!!!!!! remind what I've stated in other threads: People are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want it to be true; or they're afraid it's true.
this works not only from person A to person B
if you want the rings to work to advance your power they will because you'll get more focused you'll believe you'll be able to use the full extent of your powers because of the rings, but it's between your ears like we say it in belgium...
The items themselves in most cases don't do s**t except make you believe that you can do it with those on you.
there are items that give boosts though, but they are rare, more common are those that drain your powers because they emmit negative energy and negative substances that make you ill or tired...
True power comes from within! if I would hand you a plain plastic ring and I would deceive you saying that it works and you'll be able to use your powers at will to the extent that you are 200% sure it will work you will have the confidence that will make it work, but guess what... if you believe in your own will and when it finally works the results are more amazing because the power will be nothing compared to the effects of fake rings and such.
I'm doing what I was taught here, train your will and practice. That's what I'm doing and I believe in myself
Also I have a drive that I find may come in the open now: (directed to Moloch) Moloch says that all by all I'm weak... I train because I need to power to protect those I love that are unaware of the dangers surrounding them. but also I want to prove him wrong, sry Moloch, you're wrong and I'll prove it, I'm getting stronger by the day. if you want I will pm you the achievements I've gained so far since our last contact via via.

believe in yourself, find a good drive to keep your focus on your goal and you'll get there without external focus materials. I've never needed them and I have a concentrationdisorder... if you want it, really want it, you can overcome anything by your will alone.

please my offer of pointing out my theoretical flaws still stands... this is my opinion and what I use to get by, it works for me, but this does not mean it's true.

I never said what kind of focus, Lex... And you have an inkling of what I can do when I set my mind to it. Others here have far more than an inkling.

As for my comments about Tungsten steel alloys, they are based on research, both external, and personal. Can I imbue them, and make them accept energies? Certainly. But I am no ordinary magical practitioner, and so cannot simply say this because your average little pagan will never be able to do what I do.

As for what you can do, Lex; don't get cocky.

there are items that give boosts though, but they are rare, more common are those that drain your powers because they emmit negative energy and negative substances that make you ill or tired...

You have been told what I am, and some of what I am capable, and since then I have grown more in every direction... exponentially more, and even back then, Negative energies were my bread and butter - as we say here in the US. I am an energetic toxic waste dump, young man. Never forget it. I also understand more of what you speak on than you even dream that you grasp. So, please, stop lecturing me on matters that I can lay waste to you on.

Moloch says that all by all I'm weak... I train because I need to power to protect those I love that are unaware of the dangers surrounding them. but also I want to prove him wrong, sry Moloch, you're wrong and I'll prove it, I'm getting stronger by the day.

If you have grown so much, use your newfound strengths and gaze on me, as Kreepy once did. He was by far and away stronger than you, and even he fell out of his chair in sheer terror at what he saw. And this was a couple of years ago, before I began to advance again.

But, by all means, train, practice. Work to become the best you can be. There is nothing wrong with that. Just don't measure your success against the likes of me, or Kreepy; you will likely be disappointed.

I'm well aware you don't need them for that, I'm stating that others shouldn't turn to focus items too quickly because it's a weakness.
About your rings, that's cool^^
I don't lecture you, never my intention. I apoligize if it came over that way.
about my advancing in training is to show you I'm not as weak as you state I am, nothing more.
I keep all advice you've given me close to heart and in my mind at all times ;)
If you don't mind I'll pm you now on what I have achieved in the time since the last time you helped me out.
edit: also: I'll try my best not to get cocky ^^ I can't do much now, maybe never will, but I can perhaps become more than you said I can be ;) that's what I want to reach

unless it was actually made by the person selling it...i don't see how binding something spiritual to a cheap piece of jewelery would be possible...in most bindings there are always symbols required and some metals are better at containing spiritual energy than others...not to mention settings and other fabrication methods, someone who actually knows how to work with metal could do it. otherwise it could be any pewter/tin quarter machine ring.  i don't thinf many people could afford the materials to make a ring that would hold anything with a significant will...eastern metalsmiths are the original spritual metalurgists, so naturally they could forge something that fantastic, like a gold oil lamp and easily chase the symbols to forever imprint them.

Lex - Understand that I speak from a level of experience you have no idea of yet, and no, you don't know what I am now. You only know what I was. The difference between these two states of being is as great a gulf as the one between what I was and what you are. Understand that I do not say these things to discourage you, but to educate you. It is fine and desirable to teach a youngling to look at the sky and wish for the stars, but it would be irredeemably irresponsible to not teach you to set realistic goals for working towards those stars.

Look at it this way: You are an Earthling, and you have been visited by a being from across the cosmos who arrived without the aid of any ship or any technology you understand. You decide that you want to be able to do the same thing. However, you haven't even mastered flight yet.

Get off the ground first, youngling.

Jordyn - I actually noticed this effect after I got married and this with the original band. I had bought it because it was nigh on indestructible. After I noticed the effect, I did some research. There are no symbols on either of my rings, and considering the nature of Tungsten steel, there never will be unless I reforge them.

@ moloch: you have a demon in your ring?  my response was actually in reference to the original question from the perspective of a metalsmith that understands the spiritual realm. i don't know who made your rings but there are so many metals out there now and people who mix and match them that i'll need another two year degree to understand it beyond smithing.  i imagine if the wearer's will is stronger than the bound spirit's, maybe...until it found it's escape, i sure as heck wouldn't buy it online, i'd just forge it myself. ;)       it got backon topic. :D

Title: Re: Demon Rings
Post by: jordyn on August 02, 2010, 10:15:39 PM
a properly fabricated piece of jewelery will survive time, no enchantments required.  however trapping, binding or other infusing would have to be done during creation. in my not so humble opinion as an apprentice metalsmith.  i'd never compare you to an insignificant demon, a dichotomy of arcane knowledges possibly but that's not a bad thing, i doubt you could be contained in a ring anyhow. ;)

moloch: autism ^^
anyway, some theories are: placing energy beneath yourself as to make you ligther, another could be placing energy platforms on the air that float on which you could attempt to stand. I have had loads more and the one I think has the highest chance of succes is the one where you place energy beneath you pushing you upwards (kind of telekenisis on yourself).

flight theories?

if we were intended to fly we'd have had wings, we figured out how to create flying machines instead.

the only, possible way one could experience flight would be something astraly, the spirit is light enough to defy gravity, i hear they have zero g experiences, it's more weightlessness then flying, but physically?  even traditional witch flight sensation is attributed to an herbal mixture of belladonna and babyfat.

it's like a human female giving birth to a half breed demon...physically it's not possible and if anyone could do it they'd be rich or involved with a small, elite group of dark magicians that figured out how to alter our physical state allowing us to be lighter than air, they can figure out how to make goldstone, but it's not gold, just a pretty glitter rock.

the whole point of the metaphor was to show that you need to know how to get a ticket before you can go to europe, you have to have credit before you get the credit card to book the flight and you most definitly need to know what you are getting involved with, before you get involved and end up lost somewhere you have no clue how to get back from.

however d&d has rings of flight...

Ok, since flight is what you're interested in... here's one. See, it's said that when you die, you float away from your body. So, all you need to do is engineer a little NDE, then you get to fly to your heart's content. Good luck though, most people only get it half right. We call them "suicides".

I personally don't express my bias when people demonstrate their stupidity. If they can't figure out that what they are doing may cause their death then let nature settle this problem. I like to watch natural selection in person (way better then animal planet). Who am I to rob nature of its job?

I don't think it is a sin to let nature run its course. Without my intervention I am enhancing the genes of future offspring.

If other individuals find nature entertaining as well then I don't see a problem with it. I am not going to get angry, I am going to get a lawn chair.

However when there is stupidity expressed through non-life-threatening means I must endure the pain of losing my I.Q. points. Usually it is too painful for me to find it humorous.  :doh:

stuff like this... you don't wanna mess with it, real or fake. When you put a demon in a ring or necklace or something like that you conduct its energy into yourself in order to accomplish your goal. Demon's are essentially their power, and they could theoretically destroy/possess someone easily through that object. Demon power... bad idea

interesting point about real or fake; at what point can our fake become real and what we thought was a fun game, becomes a nightmare for others?

we can't figure out the human brain and the depth of it's abilities, have no clear definition of what's being engaged and can't even agree on where they come from, we just know they are there.  *shrugs*


so, what's a demon?

at that point i think a person could began to play around with such notions... but if they fail to have the knowledge of what they're going up against and the counters available, they need to learn a lot more before about the capabilities of their mind, before playing cat and mouse with creatures we really have no clue as to what they are or what drives their minds.

humans are easy too figure out...we're still in our primal stage, they ascended the flesh and we're still bound to it.

I so hope this doesn't count as a dead thread... if it does, I'm sorry! (On the positive side of it being dead, I now know the perfect time span of when not to comment!)

Through my experiences, I've used marbles in order to remove a dark entity from a location or another object and place a seal on it. I have yet to have one jump out of it. So, it's possible to trap demons/darker spirits into objects. It's just harder to keep them in it without the proper work. But I agree with Cylinder (and anyone else who may have said this), don't mess with it unless you know what you are doing...

On a note about E-bay, I wouldn't trust too much of their mystical gear. I know people on there and 4 out of 5 are just looking for a nickle in their pocket.
