'''Feruchemy''' is one of the three prime manifestations of [[Investiture]] on [[Scadrial]]. The natives of that world consider it one of the three [[Metallic Arts]].
 
== Lore & Background ==
'''Feruchemy''' is the only of the Metallic Arts that had widespread existence long before the Lord Ruler's [[Ascension]]. It is a genetic ability found in the ancient people of [[Terris]], but now that most Terrismen are eunuchs because of the [[Lord Ruler]]'s breeding programs, Feruchemists are now exceedingly rare.
 
A '''Feruchemist''' can use metals to store particular attributes in metal, somewhat like a battery. The larger the piece of metal is (and the closer it is to Allomantic purity), the more of that particular attribute can be stored. A Feruchemist can draw upon their metals in increased, compounded qualities, but the faster they do this, the lesser returns they receive. Only the Feruchemist who stored those attributes can draw upon them later, however.
 
Like Mistborn and Mistings, there are Feruchemists that can utilize one or all of the metals. The former are known as '''"Ferrings"'''{{ref|17s|712|text=Q&A with Peter Orullian, 8/20/11}}
