'''God Metals''' are the solid manifestation of a [[Shard]] of [[Adonalsium]]'s [[Investiture]].{{book ref|mb6|part=ars}}

 

The God Metals are metals formed directly from a [[Shard]] and can be made from any Shard.{{wob ref|2530}} Creating a God Metal without a Shard is extremely difficult, but possible.{{wob ref|14137}} They can be alloyed with the lesser metals to form sixteen different metals each, though few are known.{{wob ref|7624}} They can also be alloyed with each other.{{wob ref|11949}} Besides having an Allomantic, a Feruchemical, and a Hemalurgic property, each God Metal can also do something else.{{wob ref|6082}}

 

If a Shard is [[Splinter]]ed, God Metals that existed before will remain unaffected.{{wob ref|12055}} The Vessel of the Shard can slightly change the properties of its God Metal over time, but not the main functions of what it does.{{wob ref|2554}}

 

 

[[Lerasium]] is the God Metal corresponding to the Shard [[Preservation]]. A normal person burning lerasium becomes a [[Allomancy|Mistborn]] of undiluted power. A Misting or Mistborn burning lerasium drastically increases their powers.{{wob ref|10116}} [[Feruchemist]]s can use lerasium to store an unknown quality, and when used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, lerasium steals all abilities.{{file ref|Hemalurgy table.jpg|Hemalurgy Table}}

 

[[Atium]] is the God Metal corresponding to the Shard [[Ruin]]. An Allomancer burning atium is able to see into the future by a few seconds. Feruchemists can use atium to store youthfulness, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, atium steals any property or power.{{file ref|Hemalurgy table.jpg|Hemalurgy Table}}

 

[[Malatium]] is an alloy of atium and [[gold]].{{book ref|mb3|part=ars}}{{wob ref|6086}} An Allomancer burning malatium is able to see either who another person was in the past, or who they could have become if they had made different choices.{{book ref|mb3|5}}

 

[[Ettmetal|Harmonium]] is the God Metal corresponding to the Shard [[Harmony]]. Called "ettmetal" in their native tongue, the Southern Scadrians use it to power their technology. Harmonium burns "with a pure whiteness"{{book ref|mb6|22}} when used in Southern Scadrian machinery, and explodes when it is exposed to water (similar to the [[Wikipedia: Alkali metal|alkali metals]]) making it dangerous if not impossible to ingest for Allomantic purposes. Unlike alkali metal reactions, this reaction does not yield a "Harmonium oxide," but it will yield "something else relevant to the [[cosmere]]." Harmonium's atomic structure is that of a single element, rather than a compound or alloy.{{wob ref|1663}}

 

[[Raysium]] is the God Metal of [[Odium]]. Raysium can naturally conduct Investiture, drawing it in from any source.{{book ref|sa4|84}}

 

[[Trellium]] is from a Shard currently known in the cosmere but which particular Shard is unknown.{{wob ref|6261}}{{wob ref|13226}} It is a silvery metal with a red cast to it, and dark red spots similar to rust.{{book ref|mb5|21}}{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} Its Allomantic and Feruchemical properties are unknown. It can be used Hemalurgically to steal some, if not all, Allomantic and/or Feruchemical abilities and grant them to [[Kandra]].{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} It can also be used on humans to create Hemalurgic constructs.{{book ref|mb5|21}}{{wob ref|6261}} Kandra and Hemalurgic constructs with a single spike of trellium will be hidden from Harmony.{{wob ref|6300}}

 

[[Shardblade]]s and [[Shardplate]] are both made out of a mixture of the unnamed God Metals of [[Honor]] and [[Cultivation]]. The precise proportion of the two differs depending on the type of [[spren]] that forms the Blade, or the order to which the Plate belongs; as such, there are at least ten alloys.{{wob ref|11211}}{{wob ref|11949}}{{wob ref|2541}} Like all God Metals, they are Allomantically viable, and thus burnable by a [[Allomancy|Mistborn]], although it's yet to be seen what the effects would be.{{wob ref|13315}} Presumably, they would also have Hemalurgic and Feruchemical effects.{{wob ref|6082}}

 

[[Honorblade]]s are made out of the unnamed God Metal of Honor.{{wob ref|13996}}

The [[Dor]] is the remnant of [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]]'s combined powers after the Shards themselves were Splintered.{{wob ref|2787}}{{wob ref|1533}} There is a God Metal that comes from the Dor.{{wob ref|13354}}
