Silver is a significant substance in the Forests of Hell as it is known to repel spirits.[1] Shades that touch it are thrown backward, though the touch of the Shades ruin it.[1]
Silver can also heal the effects of a Shade attack. Silver dust is applied to areas of the body that are affected, reversing the necrotic effects of the Shade's touch.
Around the Cosmere
Scadrial
Silver is Allomantically inert.[2] "Silver has some interesting properties, but on Scadrial they are largely undiscovered."[3]
Trivia
Brandon originally envisaged the Allomantic powers of tin as silver, falsely assuming that pewter had a high quantity of silver.[4] He also considered using it instead of aluminum when Vin is captured in Kredik Shaw, but decided it was too abundant.[2] After changing it, he was concerned that Vin's earring might be confusing, so it became 'silver coated'.[5]
