oooo I was thinking the ring was actually made by the goblins hence they are so anxiously in recovering it
but if you have the idea of being the descendant of the ring maker, that'll do, as long as you can figure it the power of the ring. (too bad it cannot be 1 of the deathly hallows - the resurrection stone, since the ring was in the Slytherin ancestry line)
and that the power is what the goblins are craving for (eg, they could use to it to change something?)
but how to tie it up with Nikolaus being responsible for the loss of the ring for that nice idea of goblin curse to work
*ponders*
Ideas I can think of at the moment (seeing how dead my brain are now)
1. Have Sabian steal the ring right under the goblins' watch and somehow activate the power of the ring, temporarily allowing Sabian to escape. And he will seek the help of Damien, Head of Slytherin. The goblins can stay as long as the construction is not complete, but I wrote previously that they will only require 1 more week (seeing how fast n efficient goblins are). Feganor, the goblin, in desperation, forces Nikolaus to take the ring back (citing the contract). Somehow Nikolaus refuses, and he activates the goblin curse, which affects Nikolaus (by causing a series of unfortunate events to befall) and in order to free himself of the curse, he will attempt to take the ring forcefully
But that will only make my character having a lot of subplots. Nikolaus will be a very busy man
2. Someone find the goblin highly suspicious and follows him which leads the character to find Sabian. Maybe Geneve can be the one who discovers Feganor acting suspiciously since she was the other character whom Feganor had approached before. She then seeks for help, either from Damien or Nikolaus. Together, they successfully rescue Sabian (and maybe during the course, Sabian activates the ring). Furiously with the loss of the ring, Feganor activates the goblin curse which affects Nikolaus?
At least there will be more characters involved in this type of scenario
3. Anymore idea?
