'''Hazekillers''' are specialized warriors on [[Scadrial]] who are employedtrained to fight and kill [[Allomancer]]s.{{book ref|mb1|5}} The term is also used to refer to methods and weapons used to fight Allomancers.{{book ref|mb4|14}}
 
After the [[Catacendre]], the term hazekiller is rarely heard, but "kill squad" is used as a rough synonym.{{book ref|mb5|prologue}}{{book ref|mb6|20}} [[Ranette]] also invents specialized bullets used to fight Allomancers that she names "hazekiller rounds".{{book ref|mb4|14}}
During the [[Final Empire]], hazekillers were non-Misting specialists trained to fight and kill Mistings and Mistborn. They carry no metal that can be pushed or pulled and are armed with simple, non-metallic weapons and shields, notably duelling canes and shields to deflect coins or other projectiles. They worked in large groups or with allomancers to overwhelm the enemy mistings.{{book ref|mb1|5}}
 
==Final Empire==
After the [[Catacendre]], the term "Hazekiller" is considered to be archaic, it is currently unknown if hazekillers still exist in the era or do so under a different name.{{book ref|mb4|14}}
During the [[Final Empire]], hazekillers were ordinary people trained to fight and kill [[Misting]]s and [[Mistborn]].{{book ref|mb4|14}} Wealthy [[noble]] houses such as [[House Venture]] employed squads of hazekillers in addition to their regular security forces in order to defend their keeps against Allomancers.{{book ref|mb1|5}} Hazekillers were also used as guards to prevent entry{{book ref|mb1|31}} or escape by Allomancers.{{book ref|mb3|60}}
 
Hazekillers typically wore no armor, and they carried no metal.{{book ref|mb1|5}}{{book ref|mb1|33}} They used non-metallic weapons such as dueling canes, staves, or obsidian blades.{{book ref|mb1|5}}{{book ref|mb1|33}}{{book ref|mb2|43}} They had special training in recognizing the effects of the metallic arts and are not easily deceived by Allomancy. They often utilized large wooden shields that could be used to deflect coins or other projectiles.{{book ref|mb1|5}}{{book ref|mb2|43}} They worked in large groups using aggressive tactics to overwhelm enemy Allomancers.{{book ref|mb1|5}} Alternatively, they could try to stall until help from friendly Allomancers arrived.{{book ref|mb1|5}} Because Mistborn had a wide range of abilities, they were particularly difficult for hazekillers to contain; highly skilled Mistborn such as [[Kelsier]], [[Zane]], and [[Vin]] successfully fought large groups of hazekillers.{{book ref|mb1|5}}{{book ref|mb2|43}}
[[Ranette]] pays homage to hazekillers by making special ammunition rounds to dispatch individual Mistings and naming them "Hazekiller rounds", such as a round that causes loud noise to panic and discomfort a [[Tineye]] or a [[Coinshot]] round made with a mixture of ceramics and metal, the purpose of which is to trick the coinshot into thinking they can push on the round, leaving the ceramic part of it to continue on its course, unaltered.{{book ref|mb4|14}}
 
==Post-Catacendre==
After the [[Catacendre]], the term "hazekiller" was considered to be archaic, and it was not in common use.{{book ref|mb4|14}} However, people that used hazekiller tactics still existed and were sometimes referred to as "kill squads".{{book ref|mb6|20}} [[Wayne]] directly equated kill squads to hazekillers.{{book ref|mb6|20}} Kill squads received some training in recognizing the effects of temporal Allomancers such as [[Slider]]s, which did not exist in the Final Empire.{{book ref|mb6|20}}
 
[[Granite Joe]] sent a kill squad that carried no metal and used crossbows after [[Wax]] in [[Weathering]].{{book ref|mb5|prologue}} The [[Set]] also employed multiple kill squads, and sometimes even outfitted them with expensive [[aluminum]] weapons and bullets.{{book ref|mb6|16}}{{book ref|mb6|20}} The Set was also prone to including Allomancers or [[Feruchemist]]s in their kill squads.{{book ref|mb6|16}}{{book ref|mb6|20}}
 
[[Ranette]] paid homage to hazekillers by making special bullets intended to dispatch each type of Misting and naming them "hazekiller rounds".{{book ref|mb4|14}} These included:
*Coinshot: Rounds with a ceramic tip that keeps travelling after the metal of the bullet has been pushed away.
*Lurcher: Rounds with ceramic sides that explode when pulled on, causing shrapnel, which is said to be harmful but not lethal.
*Tineye: Rounds that make a loud noise when fired and a different noise when they hit. They are intended to disable rather than harm.
*Pewterarm: Rounds that are larger and packed with more gunpowder. They are intended to overpower the resilience of a pewterarm until death.
Ranette believed that her hazekiller rounds were even more effective than [[aluminum]] bullets against Allomancers, because they would not realize the danger of her rounds until it was too late.{{book ref|mb4|14}} [[Vindication]], the specialized revolver that Ranette gave to Wax, was able to fire both standard bullets and hazekiller rounds.{{book ref|mb4|14}}
