The Ring of Hircine (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim)

First Appearance:

A ring that belonged to the Lord of the Hunt, Hircine's ring was stolen from him by the werewolf Sinding, who had hoped to use it's powers to control his lyncanthropic transformations. However Hircine discovered the theft and planted a curse on the ring, causing it to have the opposite effect on him and cause him to transform into a werewolf at random.

Sinding was trying to return the ring when he murdered Lavinia and was thrown into Falkreath jail.

Although the Dragonborn was tasked to kill Sinding, they returned to Hircine to report that they spared him and killed the hunters. Thinking this amusing, Hircine gave the Ring to him as a gift.


"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim"

Sinding explains that the death of Lavinia was the fault of the ring (the cursed ring) and reveals that the Ring of Hircine was no longer the Daedric Artifact it had been since Hircine cast his curse upon it. 

The Dragonborn excepts the ring and says he will return it to Hircine. Upon their meeting, the Apsect of Hircine considers removing the curse if he complied with his favor to kill Sinding.

However after teaming up with Sinding and saving him from Hircine's hunters, the Dragonborn meets with the Aspect of Hircine again and declares that he has failed to complete the task. But Hircine replies that he found the fact the Dragonborn had killed the hunters instead of the hunt to be amusing. As a reward he removes the curse from the ring and grants the Dragonborn the ring as a gift.
