Abstract: Using an extension of the abundancy index to imaginary quadratic rings with unique factorization, we define what we call $n$-powerfully perfect numbers in these rings. This definition serves to extend the concept of perfect numbers that have been defined and studied in the integers. We investigate the properties of $2$-powerfully perfect numbers in the rings $mathcal{O}_{mathbbQ(sqrt-1)}$, $mathcal{O}_{mathbbQ(sqrt-2)}$, and $mathcal{O}_{mathbbQ(sqrt-7)}$, the three imaginary quadratic rings with unique factorization in which $2$ is not a prime.
