Darksilver Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 We don't really see it used for anything other than the compounding trick. If a feruchemist tapped youth to temporarily be, say, eight years old, would this make them more immature? If it does, how much does the retention of memory act as a moderating influence? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanLemon Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 Honestly we don't know. I don't think so though as Feruchemy does seem to distinguish between mental and physical effects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karger Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 First of all Welcome to the shard! Secondly good question. It could honestly go either way. You don't crush yourself with iron for example but speed of thought does effect how many calories you need to burn that day. Personally I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if an 80 year old became a teenager for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the Shard! I assume that you have read the first Mistborn Era at least, who is your favorite character and why? Also, what is your favorite book? In response to your Q: We don't entirely know. Rashek was tired in tFE, but that might just have been due to Kel's meddling. Or Ruin. That too. The main thing would be which age you perceive yourself to be. That Connection might be which maturity age you are. Short answer: We don't know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was about balance though and the fact that he was not strong enough to stand up again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is what I was going for. Maybe my earlier post wasn't quite clear. Sazed needs the support of Pewter to deal with his weight from Iron. If he didn't, then he would have fallen over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His weight should kill him yet we see Wax smash through floors no problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
