'''Brass''' is the external mental pushing metal, an alloy of [[zinc]] and [[copper]]. It is the paired alloy of zinc (the alloy paired with copper is [[bronze]]). An Allomancer burning brass is able to dampen the emotions of those around them. It can be targeted at a single person or a group. Feruchemists can use brass to store warmth, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, brass steals Cognitive Feruchemical powers.
 
== 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}} SoothingIt emotionsis can be usedeasier to decreasetarget someone'sa fatigue,specific fear,direction or happiness. It can accomplish manyinstead 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.{{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=70}} Emotional allomancy can affect animals, however it requiresat a certainspecific amount of sapienceindividual.{{wobbook ref|3950}} Soothers can affect a [[singer]]'s Rhythms and may be able to dampen [[Odium]]'s influence. {{wob refmb7|842460}}

Very powerful soothing can put an hemalurgic creature under complete control, and once controlled, the soothing is no longer required. This can be achieved by one person ([[Mistborn]] or a [[hemalurgy|Hemalurgist]]) burning [[duralumin]] and brass together, a combination of [[nicrosil|Nicroburst]] and Soother, or a group of Soothers and/or Rioters. 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 Soothers 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}}
 
Soothing inside of a [[Bendalloy|speed bubble]] could give the same effects as burning duralumin, and can still be aimed without the normal hindrances of exiting time bubbles.{{wob ref|15224}} Soothing can be stopped by an [[aluminum]]-lined hat and possibly by aluminum over the Soother's chest.{{wob ref|8223}} It can also be stopped by the helmet of a [[Shardplate]].{{wob ref|15717}}

=== 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 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. {{wob ref|1097}} 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. {{wob ref|1097}}

=== Compounding ===
It is difficult, but possible, for a brass [[Compounding|Compounder]] to create so much warmth that they can hurt themselves in the process.{{wob ref|5025}}
