=== Allomancy ===
Being a Mistborn, Vin has the ability to access and burn all of the Allomantic metals. She [[snapping|Snapped]] during her difficult birth process, which is one reason why she has great affinity with Allomancy.{{bookepigraph ref|mb3|epilogue}} Vin showed proficiency in using her abilities with even Kelsier mentioning her talent surpassing his own. However due to the limitations of the Final Empire, Vin had no experience burning [[nicrosil]], [[chromium]], [[cadmium]], or [[bendalloy]]. In addition Vin’s natural curiosity and ingenuity allowed for extreme demonstrations of her power. A great example of Vin’s ingenuity is the discovery of Duralumin. Knowing that every pure allomantic metal had a supplementary alloy, Vin contracted metallurgists to develop multiple alloy variations for testing.
 
Vin demonstrated varying proficiencies in her allomantic usage. This is primarily caused by Vin’s predilection toward combat oriented metals, and her being a full [[Allomancy|Mistborn]]. If she could not immediately see how a particular metal could aid in a fight, Vin would often consider them less useful. However for the time period, Vin developed a deep understanding of allomantic theory. She was considered the most powerful Mistborn of her time even with [[Elend Venture]] consuming Lerasium directly, and therefore not suffering a dilution of power from genetic transfer.
'''[[Electrum]]-''' The “poor man’s atium” Vin uses electrum to fight Steel Inquisitors when it appeared the supply of atium had depleted.
