* [[Steel Inquisitor]]s are former humans with nine to eleven spikes, each charged with an Allomantic or Feruchemical power. Their characteristic eye-spikes grant them Allomantic [[iron]] and [[steel]] to "see" in lieu of eyes. A linchpin spike, placed in the lower back, holds their fraying [[spiritweb]]s together; removal results in death. [[Seeker]]s are preferred candidates to become Inquisitors, due to their ability stacking with spikes granting Allomantic bronze, allowing Inquisitors to pierce [[Coppercloud]]s.{{book ref|mb3|37}}{{book ref|mb3|45}}

* [[Kandra]] are former [[Mistwraith]]s given sapience by two spikes, both charged with the same human attribute. To the Kandra this is known as a [[Blessing]]. It is possible for a [[Kandra]] to have sapience with only one spike.{{book ref|mb5|21}}
 
* [[Hemalurgic chimera|Chimeras]] are former humans, and are created with a single spike of an [[Trellium|unknown metal]], charged with an unknown attribute.{{book ref|mb5|21}} Their single spike makes them invulnerable to [[Harmony]]'s control, which requires two. They are quadrupedal, and their features have been twisted in such a way that they now more closely resemble canines, in addition to having thicker skulls to resist modern firearms.{{wob ref|6303}}{{book ref|mb5|21}}{{wob ref|6300}}
