'''Zinc''' is the external mental pulling metal. An [[Allomancer]] burning zinc is able to inflame the emotions of those around him. It can be targeted at a single person or a group. [[Feruchemists]] can use zinc to store mental speed. When used as a [[Hemalurgic spike]], zinc steals emotional fortitude.
