The paired alloy of cadmium used in the Metallic Arts is [[bendalloy]].{{book ref|mb4|10}}
== Allomantic Use ==
A cadmium [[Misting]] is known as a '''Pulser'''. Burning cadmium pulls on time around the user, causing time to pass more slowly in a bubble around them.
When a cadmium bubble and a [[bendalloy]] bubble occur in the same place, their effects cancel out resulting in no change whilst still burning the metals used.{{book ref|aol|2}}{{book ref|mb4|12}} The time bubble created by a Pulser is about the size of a room, larger than a time bubble created by burning bendalloy.{{book ref|mb4|12}} Careful examination may reveal the edge of the bubble, where air appears to shimmer. As long as some part of a person is inside the slowness bubble, they will be included in its effect.{{book ref|mb7|49}}
When a time bubble is created, the area of the bubble stays stationary with respect to a moving object as long as the
Some potential "non-combative" uses for cadmium Allomancy include advancing personal time to a desired date,{{book ref|mb4|12}} performance art in which one or more performers utilize cadmium "pulses" to enhance the exhibition, and scientific observation of processes/reactions which would otherwise not be observable in real-time.{{cite}}
▲When a time bubble is created, the area of the bubble stays stationary with respect to a moving object as long as the person creating it is stationed on an object large enough. For example, someone standing on a planet, which is quite massive, is still actually moving with the rotation of the planet, and the bubble moves with that person, but the bubble itself stays in the same place with respect to the planet. However, if the person who created a time bubble is on a small, moving object (or the person merely walks to the edge of the bubble), the person will be transported through the bubble, "popping" it.{{book ref|mb6|17}} If someone were able to burn the amount of Cadmium needed to become an Allomantic [[savant]] with the metal, they would be able to get further into the future than normal.{{wob ref|6557}}
Slowness bubbles can be popped by [[aluminum]].{{wob ref|4297}}
=== Savantism ===
If someone were able to burn the amount of cadmium needed to become an Allomantic [[savant]] with the metal, they would be able to slow time to a greater degree than a regular Misting.{{wob ref|6557}} They would be able to anchor the slowness bubble to themselves, allowing the slowness bubble to move with them. This would cause complications for objects moving in and out of the bubble as energy is transferred to and from the [[Spiritual Realm]] to prevent redshift and blueshift.{{wob ref|2761}} They would also be able to influence the size of the bubble and the amount of time it gives.{{wob ref|11691}}

▲A cadmium [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Gasper'''. Cadmium is used to store breath. While storing breath, the Feruchemist must hyperventilate to keep his body oxygenated. Tapping a cadmiummind allows the user to go without breathing, or to introduce extra oxygen into their bloodstream.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}}

==
During the [[Final Empire]], cadmium and [[bendalloy]] were inaccessible and unknown to Allomancers, though they were possibly known to the [[Lord Ruler]].{{wob ref|5493}} The fact that their technology couldn't create the metals made Mistings of these types impossible to discover. After the [[Catacendre]], advancement in technology eventually made the metals available.

== Trivia ==
* The original plans for bendalloy and cadmium involved blueshifting and redshifting or blueshifting of light passing through the bubble. But this was dropped as it would have lead to people outside being microwaved and blasted with radiation.{{wob ref|128}}{{wob ref|8084}} This was solved through the transfer of energy between the Physical and Spiritual Realms.{{wob ref|2761}}
