Difference between revisions of "Allomancy"

'''Allomancy''' is a magic system from the ''[[Mistborn trilogy|Mistborn]]'' series that allows users, known as '''Allomancers''', to "burn" (or use) ingested metals, thereby enhancing various physical and mental capacities. For an additional burst of power, an Allomancer may burn their metal(s) especially quickly, consuming them at an accelerated rate, but gaining greater benefits from them; this is referred to as "flaring" metals. A person who is only able to burn one of the metals listed below is known as a '''Misting'''. Anyone capable of burning more than one metal is capable of burning all of them; these people are known as '''Mistborn'''.

 

 

==Allomantic Metals==

There are 16 metals that Allomancers are able to use: 8 basic metals (4 base metals and 4 alloys) and 8 Higher metals (4 base metals and 4 alloys). There are also 2 additional metals referred to as 'God metals' that sit outside of the main 16, which have as many as 16 alloys each.
