Let's follow the pattern we've seen already. There's one feruchemical imbue per quadrant. +/-1, there seems to be one allomantic imbue per quadrant. So let's assume the four things we don't know of are also human traits, and let's further assume they are split into two groups, with each group having one member per quadrant.

You may notice I've assigned Metal Group 2 to both Quadrant 3 traits, even though we don't know which metals steal trait, or which traits. However, I'm applying sudoku rules here. We know both metals in Group 1 steal metallic imbues. I've already admitted it's an assumption that the other two will steal traits, but if they do, they must be metal group 2.
So. Which trait is in which set? Remember, I'm assuming the eight traits will break down into two sets of four, one trait per quadrant, following the "one of these is not like the other" rule.
Let's try something out. We know Senses are B1. Let's go ahead and pair it with Intelligence. B1 again. We don't know if it'll be paired with the A or B from Q3, but we know it'll be a 2. So we've got:
BB??
112?
If the rules are being followed, the final item will have to be Group 1. We know that 1B steals feruchemy, so that makes it 1A, Electrum. Also, B has to be the rule, not the single outlier, cuz there's already two of them, so the third metal is B2, Chromium.
BBBA
1121
Seems pretty simple. What does this leave us with? Might paired with stability, and a metal from the third quadrant in metal group 2.
BB??
222?
Meaning this time, the outlier is 1, not 2, and we already have 3x 2's. So the last one has to be one... but there's only a single 1 for the two to share. They can't both have electrum. So I've successfully managed to prove that one of the two possible combinations is, in fact, impossible.
So let's test the other way.
Senses with Emotional Stability, and assuming the third quadrant is metal group 2.
BB??
122?
Here the outlier on Group is 1, so the final one must be 2. In the fourth quadrant, we've got two to choose from, A or B.
BB??
1222
Of the question marks, one will be A, and one will be B. They're both free in both quadrants, so things seem fine here. I'm calling this Set X.
Let's check on the other pair. Might with Intelligence.
BB??
212?
Again, B is the rule, as is 2. We already have our metal group outlier, so we plug in the 2 for Quadrant 4... but both 2's are free.
BB??
2122
So we're in roughly the same boat. Everything fits. I'm calling this Set Y. If we pair Tin with Zinc, it will be completed by either Nicrosil and Cadmium, or Chromium and Bendalloy. The same is true for Iron and Copper.
It's worth noting that above, I came to the conclusion that it would fit the pattern if Electrum stole Q4 allomantic imbues; the only metal avoided in our scenario.
So. The outliers for Allomancy were in Quadrants 1 and 3. The Outliers for Feruchemy were in quadrants 2 and 4. From this, I'm actually going to suppose an inversion is true for the traits, as inverting expected patterns seems to be a pattern in hemalurgy.
So let's assume that rather than being evenly spaced, the outliers clump. We know the outlier for Set X (with Tin and Zinc) in metal group is in Quadrant 1. So let's assume the purity outlier is Quadrant 4.
BBBA
1222
This leaves us with Set Y, with its outliers in Quadrants 2 and 3.
BBAB
2122
So that's my idea. Set X of hemalurgically stealable traits is Tin, Zinc, Chromium, and Bendalloy, while Set Y is Iron, Copper, Nicrosil and Cadmium.
Now. What do they steal?

What do we see? Well, there's "one of these things is not like the others" again. Of those four, three of them are feruchemically storeable traits; moreover, they're traits to be found in that quadrant.
So, will the same hold true? Will one of the Set Y metals steal something that cannot be stored feruchemically? That'll be harder to determine. Let's look at the likely things for Set X, which presumably defaults to stealing traits which can be stored feruchemically, meaning Stability is our outlier.
The Q3 Feruchemical Traits: Connection. Identity. Investiture. Luck.
In our model, one or two of these will prove to be stealable by either Nicrosil or Chromium. I've put Chromium in Set X.
And I'm coming to the conclusion that I'm very tired and not making sense even to myself, so I'm just gonna stop now. I'll be back, when I've woken up, though I'm actually going to be away for a week. So, this will be my last update for some time. Please go to 17thShard.com, find the Charting Hemalurgy thread in the Mistborn forum (Search the fora for a thread named Charting Hemalurgy by Oudeis) and leave your thoughts! There will be a lot of travel in my upcoming week and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
