== 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 them. 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 Allomancy.{{
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}}
Soothing can be stopped by an [[aluminum]]-lined hat and possibly by aluminum over the Soother's chest.{{wob ref|8223}}
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}}
=== Savantism ===
Savanthood is less debilitating for Soothers compared to other metals.{{wob ref|14917}}
== Feruchemical Use ==
A brass [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Firesoul'''. Brass is used to store warmth. While filling a brassmind, a Firesoul will be cool.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} A Firesoul's body, not unlike a [[iron|Skimmer]]'s, is able to resist the higher temperatures of their Feruchemy, but are not immune to intense heat in general.{{wob ref|1097}} By cooling the body by filling a brassmind, however, one could resist higher temperatures; heat would flow to the colder region of

=== Compounding ===
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, brass steals Cognitive Feruchemical powers ([[zinc]], brass, [[copper]], and [[bronze]]).{{file ref| Hemalurgy table.jpg | Hemalurgy Table}}
== Fabrial Use ==
A [[fabrial]] with a brass cage will reduce the strength of the fabrial's function.{{epigraph ref|sa4|7}}
