The Allomantic symbol for cadmium

Cadmium is the external temporal pulling metal. An Allomancer burning cadmium is able to stretch time in a bubble around them, making it pass more slowly. Feruchemists can use cadmium to store breath, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, cadmium steals an unknown quality.

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. Events outside the bubble appear to move much faster to someone inside.[1] It is suspected that it works similarly to bendalloy.

If cadmium and bendalloy are burned at the same time (in the same location), their effects are canceled.[2]

The time bubble created by someone burning cadmium is about the size of a room, larger than a time bubble created by burning bendalloy.[2]

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.[3] 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.[4]

Potential "non-combative" uses for cadmium allomancy:

-Advancing personal time to a desired date.

-Performance art in which one or more performers utilize cadmium "pulses" to enhance the exhibition.

-Scientific observation of processes/reactions which would otherwise not be observable in real-time.

Feruchemical Use

The Feruchemical symbol for cadmium

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.[1]

Hemalurgic Use

When used as a Hemalurgic spike, cadmium steals some unknown trait or quality.
