== Allomantic Use ==
AAn aluminum [[Misting]] is known as an '''Aluminum Gnat'''. Burning aluminum causes the body to instantly metabolize its metal reserves without any other effect.{{ref|name=a-mb1-36-2}} As such, an Aluminum Gnat serves no purpose and gains nothing from their powers.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}} When burning metals, non-[[Investiture|Invested]] metals go before the Invested ones.{{wob ref|881}} Only Allomantically relevant metals can be burned away.{{wob ref|12563}} Since aluminum can shield against emotional Allomancy, those who can afford to, often wear [[Wikipedia:Tin foil hat|hats]] with aluminum lining.{{book ref|mb5|1}}
An Aluminum Gnat would be able to heal from the withering inflicted by a [[Shade]] by burning aluminum.{{wob ref|6374}}
