This is a great threat.

So much well-founded speculation and discussion. I'm swooning here.

My two notes:

Pewter/Electrum

Someone uses pewter to accomplish a long-term taks, like holding a boulder or running huge distances, until it completely burns out, leaving them to the bodyshattering consequences.

Then they tap into their filled to brim Electrum-mind, the ensuing determination allows them to circumvent the part of the brain that prevents humans from using all of their strenght, giving them one last burst of energy and keeping them going no matter the pain and broken bones, because their goal is just so important.

A combination that is usefull once, for a very short time, and then they die.

(This is also my understanding of how the mythological marathon was run.)

Tin/Chromium

Professional cardgame-player or investigator. They could investigate a crime-scene with enhanced senses and if that isn't enough tap on the luck.

Also a good combo to actually fill up the chromium-mind without dying of bad luck, since the tin helps detect danger and gives a chance to drop filling.

Gold/Aluminum

The Gold lets the user see their past self/alternative self. The Aluminum prevents them from having an existencial crisis.

Gold/Electrum is probably similar.

Both are not very usefull for fighting, but can give someone a firm point to stand on characterwise.

Name: Doubtless

Provided they had enough recources to burn bendalloy excessively, would a bendalloy-misting age faster than other people?

I'm really confused right now, because I got this (in german) as a christmas present (and finished it).

Does anyone knowwhy this would be published in another language first?
