No More Rings

[Colt Cape]

Hypothetical time! Let's say DC editorial came to you and said that ONLY the GL Corps had Power Rings. What would you replace the other Corps' rings with?

I'll start with an example.

Replace the Orange Lantern Ring with a Crown.

I'd phase out the other corps and possibly spare a few of the cooler characters. I'd thin out some of the Gl population( certainly any on Earth and probably everywhere. Just my opinion. Maybe not a popular one.

[Jabare]

honestly I'd knock down the corps and only make it 20 to 25 power rings in the universe max.

Replace the Orange Lantern Ring with a Crown.

-- I think I'd actually give the crown back to the Star Sapphires since the stone was originally affixed to a tiara/crown.
-- The Indigo Tribe already seem to use their staffs.
-- Red Lanterns would get swords because when you get mad, you get stabby.
-- Orange Lantern would get goggles or a visor - to highlight his covetous nature.
-- Blue Lanterns would use a hand mirror - something about reflecting... (and it's no more silly than a lantern)
-- The Yellow (or Sinestro) Corps would get ... scary masks, with like sharp teeth and stuff...

I know they used to show beams coming from her hand sometimes even though the jewel was in her crown. I guess it just looks better coming from her hands usually. Not sure if she ever wore bracelet...

Is the Ultraviolet Corps from Justice League still a thing? If so maybe a medallion for them.

Is the Ultraviolet Corps from Justice League still a thing?

I mean, it was just introduced so I don't think STILL would be the right way to put it. It's kinda just a thing, it hasn't really been fleshed out all that much yet

On the topic:
Star Sapphires - crystals in various forms individual to the user
Red Lanterns - I think it doesn't matter what it is because of the heart replacement concept. However, I think making Red Lanterns have to be branded and the mark seeping into them and changing their physiology would be an interesting idea
Indigo Tribe - their staffs are fine
Blue Lanterns - blaster86 said prayers beads, that's perfect for their monk like aesthetic
Yellow Lanterns - they should stay as rings to drive home that Green Lantern parallel
Black/White Lantern - should mimic whichever Corp the individual is most aligned with

bonus* i think the UV tattoos is a cool idea

This but switch out the Orange one with blaster86's suggestion of chains for them

A while back, I did a reimagining of the various Corps to make them less cookie-cutter:

• Instead of the Red Lanterns, you get the Crimson Hunters, who wield various bladed weapons. Knives, swords, claws, etc.
• I never liked the solitary nature of Larfleeze, so I replaced him with the Amber Syndicate. Chains work well here.
• The Sinestro Corps became the Sinestral Overwatch, with their outfits refitted to give more of a jack-booted thugs aesthetic. Gauntlets would be perfect for them.
• The Blue Lanterns became the Order of Adara, emphasizing their semi-religious overtones and going with an amulet.
• The Indigo Tribe is fine as is.
• The Violet Lanterns became the Sisterhood of the Star Sapphire, and reverted to crowns.

[Mutant God]

Sinestro/Gold Corps - A mask
Red - A piercing
Blue - A book
Sapphire - An amulet
Orange - Treasure chest with a pocket dimension inside
Black - A Black heart inside them
White - At least one of the above of their chosen

Oh: I’d redo the Black Lanterns to be less about death and more about shadows and darkness, the absence of light: Alan Scott’s son Obsidian, Jay Garrick’s opponent the Shade, etc. I might even keep Black Hand, but replace his “green energy collector” device with the ability to use shadows and darkness to drain light. There would still be aspects of death in there; but it wouldn’t be the all-pervasive “zombie corps” that we got.
