Terken
Type unknown
World of Origin Taldain
Universe Cosmere

A terken object is one that is immune to the effects of sand mastery. When mastered sand touches something that is terken it turns black and falls away. There are deep sandlings on the Dayside of Taldain with terken carapace.[1] It is possible to dissolve the carapace of a terken deep sandling and coat weapons or armor with the dissolved carapace making them immune to the effects of sand mastery.[2] It is also possible to make terken oil with this method, which can be used to coat a person's entire body making them entirely immune to the touch of mastered sand.[3] Many of the Kerztian assassins that attacked Kenton had terken armor, weapons, and in some cases their entire bodies were coated in terken oil.
