== Allomantic Use ==
A brass [[Misting]] is known as a '''Soother'''. Emotional Allomancy is not mind control, but it does allow the practitioner to influence the emotions of those around himthem. The effects can be targeted at a specific individual or group, and can focus on specific emotions.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} Soothing emotions can be used to decrease someone's fatigue, fear, or happiness. It can accomplish many of the same things as [[zinc|Rioting]] emotions by Soothing all but the specified emotions. Extreme emotions in the target will interfere with emotional allomancyAllomancy.{{wob ref|8025}} Emotional Allomancy can affect animals, however it requires a certain amount of sapience.{{annotationwob ref|mb33950}} Emotional Allomancy also has a more compelling effect on [[Lifeless]] compared to a regular person.{{wob ref|chapter=7013062}} Soothers can affect a [[singer]]'s Rhythms and may be able to dampen [[Odium]]'s influence.{{wob ref|8424}}
 
Very powerful Soothing can put a Hemalurgic creature under complete control, and once controlled, the Soothing is no longer required. This can be achieved by a single [[Allomancy|Mistborn]] or [[hemalurgy|Hemalurgist]] burning [[duralumin]] and brass together, a combination of a [[nicrosil|Nicroburst]] and a Soother, or a group of Soothers and/or Rioters working together, though in the early days of [[Final Empire]], when Allomancy was much more powerful, a single Soother was able to do it.{{book ref|mb2|54}}{{book ref|mb3|3}}{{epigraph ref|mb3|21}}
 
After the [[Catacendre]], it is unlawful for a business to use emotional Allomancy to influence customers.{{book ref|mb5|14}} This was one of the provisions of the [[Allomantic Agreement of '94]]. There is evidence of consensual emotional counselling.{{book ref|mb4|2}}
 
== Feruchemical Use ==
A brass [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Firesoul'''. Brass is used to store warmth. While filling a brassmind, a FeruchemistFiresoul will be cool.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} A Brass FerringFiresoul's body, not unlike ana [[Ironiron|Skimmer]] Ferring's, is able to resist the higher temperatures of their Feruchemy, but isare not immune to intense heat in general. {{qawob ref|977|30|As everything in Feruchemy, you become immune to the effects of the ability only.|date=Sep, 20121097}} By cooling the body by filling a brassmind, however, one could resist higher temperatures -; heat would flow to the colder region thatof is yourtheir body and then get stored in the brassmind, allowing one to become immune to fire and other sources of intense heat by carefully regulating the rate at which one filled their metalmind. {{qawob ref|977|30|Growing colder, however, would be more helpful in this regard.|date=Sep, 20121097}}▼

=== Compounding ===
It is difficult, but possible, for a brass [[Compounding|Compounder]] can create so much warmth that they can hurt themselves in the process.{{wob ref|5025}}
 
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, brass steals mentalCognitive Feruchemical powers ([[zinc]], brass, [[copper]], and [[bronze]]).{{file ref| Hemalurgy table.jpg | Hemalurgy Table}}
 
== Trivia ==
*Brandon made a mistake while writing [[The Well of Ascension]]. The Feruchemical effects of brass and [[electrum]] were to be swapped. By the time he realized this was forgotten, however, the book was already in print. Brandon didn't want to retcon this, so the effect of brass was canonized.{{qawob ref|977|23|How is heat a mental attribute in Feruchemy?|date=Sep, 20121090}}
