History
Birth and Early Life
Vin was born to Tevidian Tekiel, lord prelan of the Steel Ministry,[1][2] and a skaa prostitute.[1] Her birth was extremely difficult, and she Snapped while her mother was in labor.[3] She had an older half-brother on their mother's side, Reen[1], and a younger unnamed sister. Vin and her sister inherited Allomantic powers from their father, the latter being born a Seeker[4].
Tevidien (apparently) tried to have Vin's mother, Vin, and possibly her sister killed. However, this attempt on their lives was unsuccessful.[5] Vin's mother was insane, and was driven by Ruin to kill Vin's infant sister with a bronze pin, thereby creating a Hemalurgic spike.
