'''Zinc''' is the external mental pulling metal. An [[Allomancer]] burning zinc is able to inflame the emotions of those around them. It can be targeted at a single person or a group. A [[Feruchemist]] can use zinc to store mental speed. When used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, zinc steals emotional fortitude.
The paired alloy of zinc used in the Metallic Arts is [[brass]].
== Allomantic Use ==
A zinc [[Misting]] is known as a '''Rioter
Rioting emotions can be used to increase someone's desire, determination, or anger. It can accomplish many of the same things as [[brass|Soothing]] emotions by Rioting all but the specified emotions. Extreme emotions in the target will interfere with emotional [[Allomancy]].{{wob ref|8025}} Emotional Allomancy can affect animals, however it requires a certain amount of sapience.{{wob ref|3950}} Emotional Allomancy also has a more compelling effect on [[Lifeless]] compared to a regular person.{{wob ref|13062}} A Rioter cannot Riot themselves.{{book ref|mb2|46}}
Very powerful Rioting can put a Hemalurgic creature under complete control of the Rioter, and once controlled, the Rioting is no longer required. This can either be achieved by a solitary [[Mistborn]] or [[hemalurgy|Hemalurgist]] burning [[duralumin]] and zinc together, a combination of a [[nicrosil|Nicroburst]] and a Rioter, or a group of Rioters and/or Soothers, though in the early days of [[Final Empire]], when Allomancy was much more powerful, a single Rioter was able to do it.{{book ref|mb2|54}}{{book ref|mb3|3}}{{epigraph ref|mb3|21}}▼

After the [[Catacendre]], it is unlawful for a business to use Rioters to influence customers.{{book ref|mb5|14}} This was one of the provisions of the [[Allomantic Agreement of '94]]. There is evidence of consensual emotional counselling.{{book ref|mb4|2}}▼
Rioting inside of a [[Bendalloy|speed bubble]] could give the same effects as burning duralumin, and can still be aimed without the normal hindrances of exiting time bubbles.{{wob ref|15224}} Aluminum over the victim's head or possibly the Rioter's chest stops Rioting.{{wob ref|8223}} It can also be stopped by the helmet of a [[Shardplate]].{{wob ref|15717}}

== Feruchemical Use ==
A zinc [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Sparker'''. Zinc is used to store mental speed. It allows the Sparker to think very quickly and come to conclusions faster. While filling a zincmind, the Sparker will be dull-witted and slow.{{book ref|

While filling a zincmind, the Sparker will be dull-witted and slow.{{book ref|aol|ars}} Storing does not affect the Sparker's ability to process physical information, such as being able to hear when they are spoken to.{{book ref|mb2|50}}
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, zinc steals emotional fortitude.{{book ref|mb3|part=ars}}
=== Kandra Blessing ===
The [[kandra]] can use a pair of these spikes as a [[Blessing]] and call them the '''Blessing of Stability'''.{{epigraph ref|mb3|38}} Like all kandra Blessings, the Blessing gives the [[mistwraith]]s sentience, with the added benefit of emotional stability.{{epigraph ref|mb3|38}}
== Fabrial Use ==
A [[fabrial]] with a zinc cage will increase the strength of the fabrial's function.{{epigraph ref|sa4|7}}
== Culture ==
Zinctongue is a colloquialism for smooth talkers.{{book ref|mb5|5}}{{msh ref|1|1}}
== Trivia ==
In the [[Ars Arcanum]] of [[The Final Empire]], the allomantic roles of [[Brass|brass]] and zinc were swapped. This was fixed in [[The Well of Ascension]], then repeated in [[The Hero of Ages]].
