  1. Why don’t they? They shouldn’t be particularly difficult to obtain, and you don’t have to do much to make people think you a Mistborn, just wear one. I suppose that someone with no Allomantic powers might have to worry about getting caught, but a Coinshot or Thug, someone with a visible power, might be able to pass as Mistborn in a pinch, I would think, but we don’t see even them wear Mistcloaks.
  2. Mistcloaks have always nagged at me a little bit. I assume that smarter folks than myself have pointed out the similarities between Mistcloaks and (spoilers for Warbreaker) Mistcloaks in general would make WAAAY more sense for an awakener than for an allomancer. In the back of my head, I've always kinda suspected that at some pre-final-empire point in the early Scadrian history, they had a nice visit from a Nathlian worldhopper (a Scholar, you ask? Seems plausible, I reply), and when the early Allomancers came into their Shardic investiture, they were like "Hey! I know what kind of clothes you're supposed to wear when you do magic!" while the Feruchemists just sort of rolled their eyes and kept on rockin' the V-robes. I've never really given it much thought beyond "oh, that sort of makes sense and would be cool," but in BoM, Marasi has a reeeeeeeally interesting thought. When they're on the stagecoach escaping New Seran, Marasi pulls out the little box and finds a switch. She has a whole internal monolog about how you don't expect an ancient mysterious magical device to have an on switch. Then she and Wax and Steris talk about for a minute after she tries to kill the horses with cadmium. While she's looking at it, she thinks to herself (bold added by me for emphasis): Steris then refers to it as an "eldritch device." I'm not saying this is conclusive, but the nomenclature there definitely feels like a hint pointing towards Nalthis, at least to me. What do you all think?
