'''Ettmetal''' is a god metal. It is a kind of metal known to the [[Southern Scadrian]]s. It is also called '''harmonium''' by [[Harmony]].{{wob ref|3539}}{{wob ref|2544}} In conjunction with south Scadrian technology, ettmetal can reproduce a particular power of [[Allomancy]] or [[Feruchemy]] when it is in the vicinity of that power.{{book ref|mb6|17}}{{book ref|mb6|29}} When an Allomantic effect is produced, it slowly uses up the ettmetal,{{book ref|mb6|22}} similar to how metals are burned up by an Allomancer.
 
== Allomantic Use ==
When burned by an [[Allomancer]], ettmetal has unknown properties.{{wob ref|6082}} Because of its explosive interaction with water, ingesting ettmetal is likely fatal even for Allomancers, though a full [[Mistborn]] with access to [[gold]] [[Compounding]] could burn it for some effect.{{wob ref|9321}} It is also likely difficult to make ettmetal [[Hemalurgic]] spikes for the same reason, though not impossible. Whether or not a [[Feruchemical]] attribute can be stored or tapped from it is currently unknown.▼
 
== Feruchemical Use ==

When used by a [[Feruchemist]], ettmetal has unknown properties.{{wob ref|6082}}
 
== Hemalurgic Use ==
Ettmetal explodes when in contact with water and burns "with a pure whiteness" when releasing Allomantic energy. It is used to fuel Southern Scadrian Allomantic technology, including their airships that run via [[steel]]pushing.{{book ref|mb6|22}} They also have a device called the '''primer cube''' that can somehow regulate ettmetal's effects with the flip of a switch.{{book ref|mb6|17}} The Southern Scadrians also use ettmetal to create powerful bombs,{{book ref|mb6|22}} which the [[Set]] have been trying to replicate with limited success.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}▼
When used as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike, ettmetal steals some unknown trait or quality.{{wob ref|6082}} It is likely difficult to make ettmetal Hemalurgic spikes due to its explosive interaction with water, though not impossible.{{wob ref|9275}}

== Harmonium as a God Metal ==
 
== Trivia ==
* The term "harmonium" has never been used in the stories published so far, but [[Brandon Sanderson]] introduced the term in one of his talks even before the release of [[Shadows of Self]]{{wob ref|1033}} and has afterwards confirmed that it is another term for ettmetal.{{wob ref|2544}} [[Marasi]] probably did not know the term harmonium when [[Allik]] described ettmetal to her, as otherwise the word would have translated.{{book ref|mb6|22}}
▲* [[Brandon Sanderson]] has described harmonium as "super-cesium" in reference to its violent chemical reaction with water.{{wob ref|2544}} [[Wikipedia:Cesium|Cesium]], like other alkali metals, is an extremely reactive real life metal and will cause an explosion with water even at sub-zero temperatures.
* If harmonium followed the naming conventions of the other god metals it would have been named ''Sazedium''. However, [[Sazed]] didn't like the sound of it.{{wob ref|3539}}
