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.{{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.{{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=70}} Emotional allomancyAllomancy can affect animals, however it requires a certain amount of sapience.{{wob ref|3950}} Soothers can affect a [[singer]]'s Rhythms and may be able to dampen [[Odium]]'s influence. {{wob ref|8424}}

Very powerful soothing can put an hemalurgicHemalurgic 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}}
