The Allomantic symbol for electrum

Electrum is the internal temporal pushing metal. An Allomancer burning electrum is able to see who they may become in the future, depending on his choices. Feruchemists can use electrum to store determination, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, electrum steals an unknown quality.
