After the [[Catacendre]], the surviving Terris began to interbreed with the general population. The genes for Feruchemy began to break apart, as a result of mixing with those for Allomancy. Whereas before people had either the ability to use all of the Feruchemical abilities or none of them, Ferrings, who could use only one (analogously to [[Misting]]s), began to appear.{{wob ref|4696}} Conversely, Feruchemists with all of the Feruchemical abilities, now referred to as "Full Feruchemists", have disappeared, though the Terris community began to work on creating one through careful breeding of Feruchemical lineages.{{book ref|mb6|3}} This dilution of power eventually caps and cannot decrease any further, and has reached that point by [[Mistborn_(series)#Era_3|Era 3]].{{wob ref|10873}} This period also saw an explosion of Feruchemical and Allomantic research; a number of new metals and their Feruchemical attributes were discovered, with the Spiritual abilities being of particular interest to the Terris community.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}}
 
After the [[Catacendre]], the [[Southern Scadrian]]s have developed [[#Unsealed Metalminds|Unsealed Metalminds]] and advanced technology based on Feruchemy.{{book ref|mb6|21}}

=== Savantism ===
Feruchemists who [[Compounding|Compound]] their metals for extended periods of time may be physiologically altered by the constant influx of power. Since Feruchemy doesn't draw from an external power, it is very difficult to become a [[savant]] from just using Feruchemy.{{wob ref|13463}} If the Feruchemist is able to Compound and draw power from an outside source they could become a savant more easily.{{epigraph ref|mb3|32}}{{wob ref|13393}}

Apart from the regular metals, [[Scadrial]] also has access to two godmetals, formed of the [[Investiture]]s of [[Ruin]] and [[Preservation]]. While the feruchemical properties of '''[[lerasium]]''', Preservation's godmetal, are unknown, Ruin's metal, '''[[atium]]''', allows for storing age, letting a person appear younger or older. Ordinarily, this power has limited use outside of temporary disguise, as one must spend equal time old and young. However, it can be Compounded to greatly extend the user's lifespan.{{book ref|mb1|epilogue}}
 
It is possible to use gold Feruchemy in order to heal the damage caused by a Shardblade, restoring function to a "severed" limb.{{wob ref|4111}}

The earliest inspiration for Feruchemy dates to when Brandon was a teenager and had insomnia. He would lie awake at night and be really tired during the day, so he wished that he could store up his sleepiness so that he could be sleepy when he wanted to be sleepy.{{wob ref|8974}}
 
An early version of Feruchemy, then referred to as "Hemalurgy"," appeared in [[Final Empire Prime|''Final Empire'' Prime]]. During the development of ''[[Mistborn: The Final Empire]]'', Brandon realized that Feruchemy would work very well as the magic system for Sazed and the Keepers, so he imported it into that novel and added the restriction of storing attributes in metal.{{annotationwob ref|mb1|chapter=22-12377}}
 
The attributes stored in brass (warmth) and electrum (determination) were originally supposed to be reversed. By the time Brandon realized his mistake, brass storing warmth had already been canonized in released books. Brandon decided not to retcon this, citing the fact that Feruchemy operates on different principles than Allomancy.{{wob ref|5508}} Brandon also notes that the organization of the metals in the Feruchemical chart is of human invention.{{wob ref|1090}}
