Mistborn are Allomancers who are able to gain power from all Allomantic metals, and are some of the most powerful characters in the Mistborn series.
Creation of Mistborn
Mistborn were created when Rashek condensed the power of Preservation into the metal Larsium which he and a few of his closest friends and allies ingested, granting them Allomantic powers. However, potential for Allomantic power became diluted as Allomancers passed their powers on to their children, and Mistborn of subsequent generations became progressively weaker as a result. Eventually, there were born those who could only burn one of sixteen of the Allomantic metals; these people are called Mistings.
