'''Human''' was a [[koloss]] that was created some time before the [[Lord Ruler]]'s death. He was a relatively minor character in [[the Hero of Ages]], and had two small viewpoints in the final section of the book. Human, when pushed, showed [[Vin]] how koloss were made, and served Vin to a very limited degree for a short time, although hating her by his own admission. He is also one of the koloss that discovers the empty [[atium]] cache in the [[kandra]] [[Homeland]] towardjust thebefore conclusion of the[[Ruin]]'s bookdeath.
 
== The Hero of AgesHistory ==
=== Vershad ===
Human's first appearance in The Hero of Ages was shortly after [[Elend]] and Vin exposed villagers to the [[mist]]s outside of [[Vetitan]] in order to inoculate them. He diffused Vin's assumption that all koloss were of a homogenous mentality - "just the same stupid beast repeated over and over", in her words - with his observations and remarks. This continued in following scenes with the two of them, where she discerned that he could use fair logic and somewhat keen observations. However, she was puzzled by Human's insistence that he was human.{{ref|b|mb3|c|8}}
 
Later, Human again insisted that he was human, and expressed the desire for human things, such as a house. Vin attempted to explain that he couldn't have those things, because human ways are not the same as koloss ways, stating that humans don't kill someone because they make them feel uncomfortable. Human observed that instead of killing each other, humans just use koloss to kill one another.
 
Vin questioned Human about the mists, whether he and the other koloss feared them. He responded by stating that mist does not kill, thus it is nothing to fear, just like any other weather. But he continued his line of thought, and stated that he hates the mists, because he can feel their hatred of him, and reckognised that Vin felt the same; that the mists hate her. This was, of course, due to having [[hemalurgy|hemalurgic]] spikes, but niether of the two realised this at the time.{{ref|b|mb3|c|15}}
 
Yet again later, shortly after [[Yomen|Yomen's]] attack upon Elend's camp, Human surprises Vin with the first known indication of values from a koloss, stating that it's not right that he shows her how koloss are made. Vin Pushes Human [[Allomancy|Allomantically]] to get him to reveal how koloss are created, and he screamed, then proceeded to run into the human camp with a dead koloss, and immediately attempted to take the hemalurgic spikes from the koloss and place them into a wounded human soldier, but Vin stopped him, and finally discovered how koloss are created. Human once again stated that he is human.{{ref|b|mb3|c|37}}
 
During the final conflict between [[Ruin]] and [[Preservation]], ([[Ati]] and Vin) Human lead koloss soldiers inside the underground tunnels of the kandra Homeland, all under the influence of Ruin. Human was aware that it was Ruin controlling him, and that Ruin was far more powerful than Vin. Ruin forced Human and his soldiers to ignore the humans in order to find the atium, and he entered the kandra atium storage, only to find it empty of all the atium.{{ref|b|mb3|c|81}}
 
When [[Harmony]] ([[Sazed]]) took up the power and began to restore Scadrial to what it had been before the Lord Ruler took up the power at the Well of Ascension over one thousand years prior, Human and the other koloss soldiers with him were still in the underground tunnels, and survived the reshaping of the world. Harmony altered these surviving koloss to become true-breeding, although it is not known how this was achieved.{{ref|annotation|mb3|chapter=81-2}}
 
== Origin ==
Before he was spiked to become a koloss, Human was a [[skaa]] rebel known as Vershad.
He was the leader of a rebellion in the southeast of the [[Final Empire]], in the same area where [[Clubs]] fought in his youth.
 
As a koloss, Human retained much of his intelligence and determination, which made him a noticably clever koloss at the time.{{ref|annotation|mb3|chapter=37-2}}
