  • He changed his enemies into the skaa, making them shorter, hardier, and more fertile.
  • He converted all the Terris Worldbringers to kandra.
  • He flattened the original Terris homeland, where the Well of Ascension was and built Kredik Shaw on top of it .
  • He raised mountains in the North and named the location Terris.
  • He became functionally immortal, compounding both gold and atium.

Lord Ruler

He formed the Final Empire, and conquered the whole of the world. He subjugated all but ten people, who he made Mistborn and allowed them to rule over the masses.

Hero of Ages
