The mists during the Lord Ruler's reign appeared every night, providing a dense fog that obscured everything.{{book ref|mb1|prolouge}} They acted in a different fashion than normal fog and never appeared during the daytime.{{book ref|mb1|5}} The mists would disperse soon after entering a structure or tent wafting in with misty tendrils then dissipating.{{book ref|mb2|23}} The [[skaa]], fearing the mists and the [[mistwraith]]s, stayed indoors at night time and only went out into the mist when absolutely necessary.{{book ref|mb1|prolouge}} [[Noble]]s, however, did not have the same pathological fear of the mists and even named their most powerful warriors after it, although the title Mistborn may be something The Lord Ruler gave them because he knew the true nature of the mist and lerasium.
The mists during this time did not seem to Snap people; however, most noblemen would have been Snapped as a child and skaa always hid from the mists.{{wob ref|7797}} Skaa that did go out in the mist and were Snapped could have very easily justified skaa fears of the mist, preventing more Snapping from occurring. Additionally, a skaa Misting may have never known of his powers, or if he did find out, he may have chosen to hide the fact, since being a Misting meant death for skaa in the [[Final Empire]]. The mists changed the moment the full power of the Well returned to be drawn again and started to [[Snap]] people.{{wob ref|7525}}
