== Metalborn and Twinborn ==
'''Metalborn''', sometimes called ''' Metalblessed''',{{book ref|mb7|47}} refers to those who have Allomantic or Feruchemical abilities. Such label can be used to refer to those who have access to all sixteen metals, Mistborn and full Feruchemists, as well as Mistings and Ferrings, who can only access a single power. [[Kandra]] are also considered to be Metalborn.{{book ref|mb6|4}}{{wob ref|8654}} [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgists]] are not included under this term as Hemalurgy is not an inborn ability. The useage of Metalborn as a label did not seem to appear until after the [[Catacendre]], which may be a result of the Lord Ruler suppressing knowledge of Feruchemy during the time of the [[Final Empire]].
[[Twinborn]] refers to someone who is both a Misting and a Ferring. They are extremely rare, and their Allomantic and Feruchemical powers seem to be independently determined, resulting in many interesting combinations of Investiture. Having access to both of these streams of the Metallic Arts also allows Twinborn to [[Compounding|Compound]] their Feruchemical abilities.
