The Eleventh Metal is a short story included in the Mistborn Adventure Game. It was released in full on Brandon's site during the Words of Radiance Steelhunt. It was republished in Arcanum Unbounded. A sample is available on Brandon's website.

Summary

It tells the story of how Gemmel taught Kelsier the art of Allomancy. They travel to Mantiz and attack Keep Shezler.

Characters

• Kelsier, three months after gaining his powers.
• Gemmel, Kelsier's Mistborn tutor.
• Antillius Shezler, a Western Dominance nobleman, obsessed with finding new metals.

Postscript

Note: the Postscript is found in Arcanum Unbounded, a collection of Cosmere stories.

The Eleventh Metal shows how Ruin manipulated Kelsier into obsessing about the eleventh metal, hoping that it was a secret weapon to defeat the Lord Ruler. Since it was written to go with the RPG, where some players may not have read the main novels, there is more exposition than the other auxiliary Mistborn stories.
