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.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}} It is suspected that it works similarly to [[bendalloy]].

When a cadmium bubble and a bendalloy bubble occur in the same place, their effects are canceled.{{book ref|mb4|12}} The time bubble created by someonea burning cadmiumPulser is about the size of a room, larger than a time bubble created by burning bendalloy.{{book ref|mb4|12}}

When a time bubble is created, the area of the bubble stays stationary with respect to a moving object as long as the personPulser 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 personPulser who created a time bubble is on a small, moving object (or the person merely walks to the edge of the bubble), the personPulser will be transported through the bubble, "popping" it.{{book ref|mb6|17}} Objects entering or exiting the bubble are thrown wildly off-course, most likely because different parts of the object are moving at different speeds during the transition.{{book ref|aol|2}} When leaving the bubble, time bubbles interfere with almost all forms of [[Investiture]].{{wob ref|78}} When multiple bubbles occur in the same space their effects are multiplied.{{wob ref|3936}}

Some potential "non-combative" uses for cadmium allomancyAllomancy 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}} Cadmium is involved in multiple ways with faster-than-light travel.{{wob ref|12107}}

A cadmium [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Gasper'''. Cadmium is used to store breath. While storing breath, the FeruchemistGasper must hyperventilate to keep histheir 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}}
