The Allomantic symbol for brass

Brass is the external mental pushing metal. An Allomancer burning brass is able to dampen the emotions of those around him. 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 mental Feruchemy.

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 him. The effects can be targeted a specific individual or group, and can focus on specific emotions.[1] Soothing emotions can be used to decrease someone's fatigue, fear, or happiness. It can accomplish many of the same things as Rioting emotions by Soothing all but the specified emotions. Extreme emotions in the target will interfere with emotional allomancy.Template:Annotation ref Emotional allomancy can affect animals, however it requires a certain amount of sapience.[2]

Feruchemical Use

The Feruchemical symbol for brass

A brass Ferring is known as a Firesoul. Brass is used to store warmth. While filling a brassmind, a Feruchemist will be cool.[1] A Brass Ferring's body, not unlike an Iron Ferring's, is able to resist the higher temperatures of their Feruchemy, but is not immune to intense heat in general. [3] By cooling the body by filling a brassmind, however, one could resist higher temperatures - heat would flow to the colder region that is your body, allowing one to become immune to fire and other sources of intense heat by carefully regulating the rate at which one filled their metalmind. [3]

Hemalurgic Use

When used as a Hemalurgic spike, brass steals mental Feruchemical powers.

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.[4]
