A Twinborn was a metalborn with one Allomantic power and one Feruchemical power.

Notable twinborn included Waxillium Ladrian, Wayne, and Miles Dagouter.[citation needed]

Twinborn only began to appear after the events of the first First Mistborn Trilogy, due to the intermingling of the Terris races with the others. This mingling also had the effect of diluting feruchemical power, creating Ferrings. The interaction of Feruchemy and Allomancy in a single person allows for both practical benefits of the power (Bloodmaker healing in a time bubble, Coinshot augmenting their weight with feruchemical iron) and a more involved process called compounding.
