What if Elrond had possession of the One Ring at the end of the battle?

Gil-Galad dies, of course, as well as Elendil. But for some reason, Elrond comes into poseesion of the One Ring instead of Isildur. Would there be a possibility that he would have been swayed by the One Ring? What would that possibility be? (or would there be none at all?) This is an idea I've pondered for a long while.

Imagine that all other canon factors are still in place. Answer with whatever you think might have happened, but try not to carry it out too far -- leave some room for someone to add on. For example, Bob could write "Boromir wouldn't go crazy." and Larry could add "And then Frodo wouldn't have left the fellowhip." If you don't agree with what someone else thought would be the outcome, post your own idea -- if you think Frodo would have left, take advantage of the way the LJ comment system works and start a new branch of that train of thought.

This little plot-bunny has been harassing me for a while now. Any ideas would be *much* appreciated.

This is one of my favorite AUs ever (and when done well, makes a damn good fic):

What if Harry had been sorted in Slytherin?

Imagine that all other canon factors are still in place. Answer with whatever you think might have happened, but try not to carry it out too far -- leave some room for someone to add on. For example, Joey could write "Ron would eternally hate him and never talk to him" and Karen could add "And then Hermione would have never been saved by the troll." If you don't agree with what someone else thought would be the outcome, post your own idea -- if you think Hermione is the one who'll hate him, take advantage of the way the LJ comment system works and start a new branch of that train of thought.

What if the hobbits had not met Aragorn in Bree?

Imagine that all other canon factors are still in place. Answer with whatever you think might have happened, but try not to carry it out too far -- leave some room for someone to add on. For example, Bob could write "Frodo would be killed by the wraiths" and Joe could add "And then Sam would carry the Ring."

What if Sirius had been completly aquitted of killing Peter and the 12 muggles?

Imagine that all other canon factors are still in place. Answer with whatever you think might have happened, but try not to carry it out too far -- leave some room for someone to add on. For example, Joey could write "James would have a heart attack and die" and Karen could add "And then Lily would have to move in with the Dursleys, having nowhere else to go."

What if Merry and Pippin weren't allowed to join the Fellowship?
