Lerasium Ferring

[Staterus he/him]

Does anyone think it is possible to have a lerasium ferring?

Also what would their ability be?

[Droughtbringer]

It is possible (it still falls on the table)

We have no way to tell.

[Farnsworth]

A godmetal is by definition Very Odd, so I don't think so. There were no atium ferrings.

[Modal Seoul he/him]

The concept of a lerasium ferring would just destroy the minds of cosmere fans locally and globally. 

[+Extesian he/him]

Lerasium has feruchemical (and hemalurgical) properties but we don't know what those properties are.

ANDREW THE GREAT

Does lerasium have Feruchemical and Hemalurgical powers.

BRANDON SANDERSON (PARAPHRASED)

Yes. Brandon will probably be getting into these, and the other metals Hemalurgical and Feruchemical powers, in greater detail in the future Mistborn Trilogies

The best guess I have would be to let you store any powers but I suspect now Harmonium does that.

Lerasium grants all Allomantic powers when burned. Atium, when used as a spike, can steal any power. Is there a way to create a metalmind that can store anything?

BRANDON SANDERSON

There is a way to create a metalmind that can store anything.

 

[Staterus he/him]

Figberts atium can be used feruchemically that is how the Lord Ruler stayed ageless.

[Lord Bookwyrm he/him]

That's because he was a full feruchemist, able to store in/tap all the metals, including god metals. (By the way, a ferring is a feruchemist who can only store in/tap one metal). There are no god metal mistings. The only reason why there were atium mistings was because preservation altered the table so that, until the final battle in the hero of ages, mistings could burn atium. Since feruchemy was of both ruin and preservation, only harmony could change it, and since harmony has that no interference attitude, its unlikely that there will ever be, or have been, atium ferrings

[Farnsworth]

No, there are atium mistings. They are called Seers.

5 minutes ago, Figberts said:

Well there were but @Lord Adonalsium has the right of it, there aren't naturally atium mistings, it was a temporary hack by Preservation.

WICKTACULAR

At the end of Hero of Ages, it's significant that 1/16 of the soldiers who got sick were Atium mistings. We know now that there's more than 16 metals - what exactly happened there?

BRANDON SANDERSON

Well, you have to remember, by that point, Preservation wasn't entirely there. He was mostly concerned with leaving hints, clues, with the number 16, towards his plan.

WICKTACULAR

So, were the other remaining group of soldiers that fell sick all still mistings of the other base metals?

BRANDON SANDERSON

Yes.

WICKTACULAR

So, did Preservation bump out one of the base metal types so those could be Atium mistings? And if so, which was it?

BRANDON SANDERSON

Yes, that's right. It would probably have been one of the metals that was difficult to get at that level of technology. It would have been Chromium - Chromium would be hard gather at that time. Actually, no, it would have been Aluminum. (about a minute later, while signing someone else's book) - Hold on, there's a caveat to that last answer. Let me finish signing this and expand on that. So, it would still have been Aluminum, but not for the reason your thinking. It would have been Aluminum, but there's an asterisk next to that answer.

Now there are (probably) none for that very reason.

I asked to confirm whether after Sazed's ascension if there were any more atiumor malatium Mistings. He said "there are no more, in that way..." and I said "In that way, huh?" and he gave me an ominous look.
