'''Pewter''' is the internal physical pushing metal. An Allomancer burning pewter has increased physical strength, speed, durability, balance, and enhanced ability to heal. It allows the user to push their body far past what they would normally be able to achieve. Feruchemists can use pewter to store physical strength, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, pewter steals Physical Feruchemical powers.

'''Pewter''' is the internal physical pushing metal. An Allomancer burning pewter has increased physical strength, speed, durability, balance, and enhanced ability to heal. It allows the user to push their body far past what they would normally be able to achieve. Feruchemists can use pewter to store physical strength, and, when used as a Hemalurgic spike, pewter steals Physical Feruchemical powers.
 
== Alloy Composition ==
 
Pewter can be dangerous when it runs out, which is a serious concern since it is the fastest-burning of the eight basic metals.{{book ref|mb1|5}} A Thug having just survived a deadly wound can die from the resulting effects when the body runs out of pewter to burn. However, the body will naturally burn pewter in an attempt to heal itself, so even an unconscious Thug can be given additional pewter to survive otherwise life-threatening situations.
 
Pewter roughly doubles the average persons strength, and triples it when flared.{{wob ref|7674}}
 
=== Pewter dragging ===
By constantly flaring pewter for a long time (Pewterpewter Draggingdragging), a Thug can achieve incredible things, such as running at roughly the speed of a galloping horse for extended periods. However, this is extremely dangerous and could even be lethal when the Thug stops burning Pewterpewter, for they would suffer from the sudden burst of fatigue which was suppressed by pewter. Several days of rest and sufficient food are required to replenish the Thug afterwards.{{book ref|mb1|26}}
 
=== Savantism ===
 
== Feruchemical Use ==
A pewter [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Brute'''. Pewter is used to store physical strength.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}} However, as opposed to the simply enhanced body granted to an Allomancer burning pewter, a Brute tapping a pewtermind gains muscle mass and becomes physically larger. The additional muscles allow the Brute to have increased strength. For this reason, pewter metalminds are often designed to be able to stretch wider to accommodate the extra muscles. While storing physical strength, a Brute becomes scrawny and weak.{{book ref|mb1|37}}

It's possible for a Brute to tap so much strength that their girth makes it difficult for them to maneuver properly.{{book ref|mb2|53}}
 
=== Compounding ===
A pewter [[Compounding|Compounder]] would be able to use pewter to have a nearly infinite supply of physical strength.{{wob ref|5503}}{{wob ref|851}}
 
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a Hemalurgic spike, pewter steals Physical Feruchemical powers ([[iron]], [[steel]], [[tin]], pewter, [[cadmium]], [[bendalloy]], [[gold]], and [[electrum]]).{{wob ref|5508}}{{wob ref|10046}} All [[Steel Inquisitors]] were given a pewter spike charged with Feruchemical gold, allowing for their rapid healing.{{book ref|mb3|36}}
 
=== Kandra Blessing ===
The [[kandra]] can use a pair of these spikes as a [[Blessing]].{{book ref|mb6|24}} Like all kandra Blessings, the Blessing gives the [[mistwraith]]s sentience, with an unknown added benefit.
 
== Fabrial Use ==
A [[fabrial]] with a pewter cage will express the element corresponding with the trapped spren, creating an augmentor fabrial. For example, a fabrial with a trapped flamespren will radiate heat. As with its use in Allomancy, this consumes [[Stormlight]] more quickly than other fabrials.{{epigraph ref|sa4|9}}
