'''
▲'''Iron''' is the external physical pulling metal. An Allomancer burning iron can pull bits of metal toward his center of mass, and can also use iron to sense the presence of metal nearby. Ironpulling is not dependent on magnetic forces or Allomantic power--any metal can be pulled. Feruchemists can use iron to store physical weight, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, iron steals physical strength.
==Allomantic Use==
A pewter [[Misting]] is known as a Thug or Pewterarm. Pewter's utility is not simply from the increased strength or speed. It grants the user the ability to heal from otherwise deadly wounds, and to recover much quicker. It enhances the body's natural balance, granting almost unnaturally smooth movements. Finally, it also increases endurance, letting the body continue on long past when it would have normally shut down.
The increased speed and endurance allows a Thug with a sufficient amount of pewter to perform a "pewter drag;" running at roughly the speed of a galloping horse for extended periods. However, this can require several days rest and sufficient food to replenish the Thug afterwards.
Pewter can be dangerous when it runs out. A Thug having just survived a deadly wound, or completed a pewter drag, 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.
