Thank you all for replying =) @TheBobs: The vomiting would work indeed, but I find it rather crude! I'm looking for a more elegant solution =) @Eri: I am in possession of the Mistborn Adventure RPG, it just doesn't suit my (and the players') ideal of the perfect RPG. It has some nice aspects but I find the WFRP (2nd Edition ;-) ) system appliable to almost everything that requires a big sense of realism and danger. Like the world of Scadrial. The Mistborn RPG is intended to start with people who already have some power, or are even Kandra. I prefer to make an RP group of Skaa that finally get the guts (or the proper motivation *que evil laugh*) to rise up and seek the revolutionaries in Luthadel. @Fyodor: That's a great reference, they did get sick for one day if I'm correct right? Maybe this is the direct effect of Snapping? If this is correct I can keep to my original plan in order for them to Snap, without them knowing that they have Snapped, I like it It's so much more rewarding if your players experiment on themselves because of some vague hints from my part. @Windrunner: I'm hosting a game during the rule of the Lord Ruler, that's why I opted for getting them beaten too!

It is known that burning Lerasium gives you very strong Allomantic powers, it works instantly like duralumin. Burning an alloy of Lerasium with one of the 16 other metals gives you the Misting ability of that metal.

Hey guys, I've been pondering about this for a while now and I cannot recall if there was any mention in the books! We all know that people have to Snap to become a Misting, but how does this manifest? What happens when you 'Snap'? Do you instantly know which metal(s) you can burn? And if not, how the hell do you find out? It's not like you're going to swallow all base metals because that's rather poisonous, isn't it? I've started a Roleplaying group (WFRP rules) for Scadrial and I want my players to start the game thinking that they have no Metalurgic abilities, so they can get used to RP'ing first (they've never done so before). Then I want to encourage them to make a terrible, terrible decision that allows me to beat them up something fierce, in order for them to Snap! I already figured out which Mistings they'll become and my idea is now to offer them some opportunities to eat food that contains small traces of said metal so they can immediately burn 'something' when they Snap. Any more information on Snapping would be lovely though!!
