Enkidu, the Noah & Fast Hands / Shackles of Enkidu

Since Enkidu can't have equipment, he can't steal equipment.
For the same reason, you can't put equipment on him (such as Shackles of Enkidu).

Generally speaking, you can't do illegal things or things that would result in an illegal situation voluntarily.

Because after Enkidu leave torpor him be controled this equipment.

You can strike with a Rowan ring, and send Enkidu to torpor, but then the ring is burned as it cannot be moved to Enkidu.

Correct.

The difference between the Shackles and the Rowan Ring is that the former is an effect to move equipment (illegal on Enkidu), the later is a strike to send to torpor (legal on Enkidu) with a side-effect that happens only if the strike is successful.

The real difference is that Kiss of Ra has an explicit restriction
prohibiting its use, whereas Wstake has an additional effect that
occurs only when certain conditions are met. When those conditions
are met, the additional effect is not optional. And, since it
is not allowable, the card is burned.

(replace Wooden Stake with Rowan Ring)

Name: Rowan Ring

Cardtype: Equipment

Cost: 1 pool

Unique melee weapon.

Strike: Send the opposing vampire to torpor. This card is transferred to that vampire, and he or she doesn't untap as normal during the untap phase as long as he or she remains in torpor.
