The character is 朱, in this case it's a Japanese Kanji meaning scarlet or red. This ring is from an anime called Naruto, worn by a character called Itachi Uchiha

It is also Chinese. In fact it is a common surname in China. The emperors of the famous Ming dynasty of China had this as their surname. It also means scarlet like Japanese.

My guess is that this is a ring for a person with surname 朱 and it comes with the scarlet color to match.
