Ruin's influence is omnipresent on [[Scadrial]]; he was one of the planet's creators, and all things and living beings upon it are partially of him.{{au ref|Scadrial}}. Later, he manipulated its people and texts to arrange for his own freedom. He's also responsible by proxy for the planet's miserable state during [[Rashek]]'s reign, as the Lord Ruler's changes were partially prompted by his desire to oppose Ruin.{{epigraph ref|mb3|18}} Later, it was Ruin's destruction of the planet that caused [[Sazed]] to pick up the two powers and return Scadrial to its prior state.{{book ref|mb3|82}}
Unsurprisingly, Ruin features in a number of Scadrian religions. The cult of the [[Lord Ruler]] feared the [[Deepness]], an ancient enemy that Rashek defeated at the Well -- though that was a misinterpretation of [[Preservation]]'s snapping [[mist]]s.{{epigraph ref|mb3|81}} The religion of [[Trelagism]], from Scadrial's [[Classical Scadrial|Classical]] period, spoke of two gods, Trell and Nalt, who were each other's brothers and enemies.{{book ref|mb1|
Ruin's influence extends, however slightly, to other [[cosmere]] worlds. [[Hemalurgy]] has been used on other planets, albeit subtly.{{wob ref|2749}} Additionally, [[Nightblood]] contains Ruin's [[Investiture]].{{wob ref|10902}} How it got involved in the sword's creation is unclear, though it's likely due to the [[Command]] that made it being about destruction.
