This is my first post here so please give me any tips or whatever you got for me that I may need. I've watched the site for a long time, and love a lot of the things that come out of here, but am AMAZED no one has had a thread on this. If there is one let me know, but I have been unable to find it. So. Here we go!
We know as per WOB that Vin was special for reasons he has not explained yet. This was on October 12 of 2015. I have included everything to keep it in context.
QUESTION
We were talking about Kelsier, and how he was much more powerful than most Mistborn, and how Vin was slightly more than most Mistborn ?
BRANDON SANDERSON
Why were Vin and Kelsier more powerful?
QUESTION
I know why Kelsier, but why Vin?
BRANDON SANDERSON
Vin was not more powerful. Vin just took to it very naturally. She was highly skilled. It was very instinctive to her, but Elend was actually more powerful than she was, if you count just raw power. Vin just knew her stuff. Beyond that Vin is a rare individual that for reasons I have not explained yet, was able to draw in the mists for a little extra boost at times. And there are other characters you have seen do this.

QUESTION
What made Vin so special?
BRANDON SANDERSON
RAFO
So. Brandon STILL refuses to explain why Vin was a rare individual. I haven't been able to find anything in regards to this and am wondering if Vin being a rare individual will be important in the future. It seems like it would be if Mr. Sanderson still won't say anything about it. Does anyone have anything about this they can share? Any theories, crazy or not, with proof or not, would be loved.
