== Allomantic Use ==
A chromium [[Misting]] is known as a '''Leecher'''. Chromium acts just like [[aluminum]] inside the body, causing any [[Allomancer]]s touched by a Leecher to lose their metal reserves.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}} When burning away a person's metals, it feels like pulling power from the metal and returning it to an external source.{{file ref|New Ascendancy broadsheet.jpg|''The New Ascendancy'' Broadsheet}} This power is similar to [[Nightblood]] and [[larkin]].{{wob ref|5023}} When burning away a person's metals, non-[[Investiture|Invested]] metals go before the Invested ones.{{wob ref|881}} Only Allomantically relevant metals can be burned away.{{wob ref|12563}} The ability to burn the metal can be drained while leaving the metal.{{file ref|New Ascendancy broadsheet.jpg|''The New Ascendancy'' Broadsheet}}
 
=== Draining Investiture ===
Chromium is already widely known as of the events of [[Shadows of Self]], as shown when [[Reddi]] mentions that there is a Leecher in the [[Elendel]] constables' employ.
A Leecher can also drain other forms of Investiture. They would be fairly effective at draining a person's [[Breath]] or [[Stormlight]].{{wob ref|11742}} They would also be able to Leech from a [[Lifeless]].{{wob ref|11743}} A Leecher could prevent a [[Shardbearer]] from summoning their blade,{{wob ref|1899}} and can prevent a weapon using Investiture from working.{{file ref |New Ascendancy broadsheet.jpg|''The New Ascendancy'' Broadsheet}} If a Leecher touched [[Nightblood]], they would die.{{wob ref|312}}
 
A Leecher could prevent a [[Shardbearer]] from summoning their blade.{{wob ref|1899}}
 
== Feruchemical Use ==
A chromium [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Spinner'''. Chromium is used to store fortune[[Fortune]]. A FeruchemistSpinner filling a chromiummind will be unlucky, and can tap it to increase histheir luck.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}}

=== Compounding ===
A chromium [[Compounding|Compounder]] might be able to use chromium to have a nearly infinite supply of fortune and luck; however, the mechanics of Fortune are unknown at this time.{{wob ref|9668}}
 
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a Hemalurgic spike, chromium might steal destiny.{{file ref| Hemalurgy table.jpg | Hemalurgy Table}}
It is unknown what trait or quality chromium steals when used as a hemalurgic spike, as chromium is discovered after era 1 of Mistborn. It is only in Misborn era 1 that hemalurgy is in widespread use, and therefore only in era 1 that a list of the hemalurgic uses for metals is listed in the Ars Arcarnum.
