Feruchemy

Magic System

5 characters

A Scadrian magic system in which practitioners, known as Feruchemists, store personal attributes (such as weight, speed, health, or memory) in metalminds - metal jewellery or accessories - and later tap those stores to gain enhanced abilities. Each of the sixteen Feruchemical metals stores a different attribute; for example, pewter stores physical strength, zinc stores mental speed, and copper stores memories. Unlike Allomancy, Feruchemy is end-neutral - it does not create or destroy power, only redistributes it across time.
