Any Hemalurgy warps the Spiritweb, but physical change is required for a subject to be classified as a Hemalurgic Construct.
Four types of Hemalugic Construct are known on Scadrial:
 
* [[Steel Inquisitor]]s are former humans with nine to eleven spikes, each charged with an Allomantic or Feruchemical power. Their characteristic eye-spikes givegrant them enough Allomantic [[Ironiron]]/ and [[Steelsteel]] to "see" in lieu of eyes. A linchpin spike, placed in the lower back, is required to holdholds their fraying spiritwebs[[spiritweb]]s together; removal results in death.
