The First Generation or Firsts were the first generation of kandra. They were made up of Rashek's friends, the Feruchemist packmen of Alendi.

History

When Rashek took the Preservation's power at the Well of Ascension, he realized the threat posed by other Feruchemists gaining access to Allomancy. He decided to turn every living Feruchemist into a mistwraith. However, he decided to spare his friends. After their transformation, Rashek used the knowledge of Hemalurgy he had gained by holding the power, as well as subtle hints from Ruin, to design to kandra. He then used spikes to return his friends to sentience.

These kandra began to try to fit into human societies. However, people were terrified of them and many kandra were killed, or became slaves to the Allomancers who Soothed or Rioted them. They were also afraid of creating a government independent of the Lord Ruler. As a result, the First Generation developed the First Contract, the laws of the kandra.

Appearance and Abilities

The First Generation appear differently from most kandra. Their skin, rather then being transparent, was a greenish color. It is unknown whether this is an effect of the First Generation's age or the fact that they were once human, whereas the other kandra were born mistwraiths.

The First generation also does not wear a True Body. They
