'''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.
In the Metallic Arts, pewter is the alloy paired with [[tin]].

It also increases reaction speed and gives them resistance to hot and cold temperatures.{{book ref|mb1|24}} Pewter can theoretically be used to alter the user's appearance.{{wob ref|15782}} Finally, it increases endurance, letting the body continue on long past when it would have normally shut down.
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.
