Yeah, it's a pretty cool detail!

This is something that they thought about, how Allomantic symbols might have actually been co-opted from Hemalurgic ones.

I’m now extremely anxious to see the symbol for Hemalurgy.

We considered creating these but soon realized that Allomantic symbols were probably used by Hemalurgists and actually might've been Hemalurgic symbols before they were Allomantic. (See the little nails sticking through each symbol?) Feruchemy, though, needed something different.

Given the rather dark and arcane nature of Hemalurgy, it does make me wonder if Rashek simply co-opted it’s symbology for Allomancy, given the quick spread of Allomantic powers during his rise and reign and the need for classification.

That's very likely!

In the allomantic symbols, there are allomantic beads, feruchemical bands, and hemalurgic spikes. It true
