== Allomantic Use ==
For normal people, burning lerasium forges a permanent [[Connection]] between them and Preservation, turning them into very powerful Mistborn by rewriting their [[Spiritweb|spiritual DNA]].{{wob ref|10116}} For people who are already Mistborn, the same effect increases their power.{{wob ref|1304}} However, turning people into Mistborn is only a side effect of burning lerasium; if someone who knew how to use it correctly were to burn it, it would have a different, as of yet unknown, effect.{{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=38}} Someone knowledgeable enough could use the rewrite of their spiritual DNA to achieve a different result than becoming a Mistborn.{{wob ref|5499}}{{wob ref|11939}} Burning [[duralumin]] in conjunction with lerasium does not have any effect on the strength of the Mistborn created.,{{wob ref|3618}} but the size of the bead does effect the strength of the Mistborn created.{{wob ref|341}}
 
Alloys of lerasium have the side effect of turning those who burn them into [[Misting]]s of the alloy used.{{file ref|metal_wheel.jpg|text=The Allomantic table of metals (sans text)}}{{wob ref|7624}} Alloys of lerasium and other god metals can make those who burn them gain the [[Investiture]] associated with the god metal.{{wob ref|10624}} The primary effects of lerasium alloys are also unknown.
== Trivia ==
*Alloying lerasium and atium after Preservation and Ruin combined will not give [[harmonium]]. While it would not be possible to get atium and lerasium from harmonium through distillation or other mundane methods, some supernatural means may be achievable.{{wob ref|12145}}
* If [[Harmony]] wanted to, he could produce more lerasium.{{wob ref|9713}}
