== Allomantic Use ==
An atium [[Misting]] is known as a '''Seer'''. Burning atium allows the user to see a few seconds into the future, by producing atium shadows of everything in sight. These shadows perform future actions. Burning atium expands the user's mind to be able to accept and process all of the information, even allowing the Allomancer to dodge incoming attacks from behind. If another Allomancer burning atium is encountered, the atium shadows will split, since each seeing into the other's future means that they can both make different decisions that affect both Allomancers' outcomes. An Allomancer's atium shadow will also split when burning [[electrum]]. [[Harmony]] speculates that atium makes the Allomancer burning it a more efficient killer because it draws upon Ruin's power.{{epigraph ref|mb3|78}} Atium does not enable a person to anticipate emotional Allomancy.{{wob ref|9038}}
 
Burning [[duralumin]] with atium will allow Allomancers to see farther into the future, by allowing them to peer into the [[Spiritual Realm]].{{book ref|mb3|81}}{{msh ref|6|9}}{{wob ref|3610}} The same effect can occur if a Hemalurgist has enough spikes enhancing their atium.{{wob ref|3610}} Aluminum objects do not generate atium shadows.{{wob ref|6870}}
