The upcoming RPG video game will feature an original storyline created by Brandon Sanderson set several hundreds of years before the first Mistborn novel, and will focus on a unique combat system that puts Allomancy into the hands of gamers. Players will suit up as Fendin “Fiddle” Fathvell, an arrogant young nobleman who must quickly master his newfound Allomantic abilities before forces at work can destroy his entire family.

I HAVE considered doing a Mistborn game. In fact, I was in talks with a company at one point to licence the game to them. I even wrote up a proposal for the game. (I imagined it being a nice hybrid between an RPG and a platformer, perhaps something along the lines of the metroid/castlevania vein with a physics engine. Or, for something more big budget, I'd love to see a Morrowind style Mistborn RPG.)

As far as I can tell, Fathvell is a house that was made up for the Mistborn: The Inquisition RP here on the forum, which Brandon has apparently co-opted for his own nefarious purposes. Either that or it was mentioned off-handedly in one of the books and our fellow Sharders ran with it.
