Spook started as a shy boy. The main reason was that he talks “High Imperial”, which is an ancient and important language, this causes him not to be fully understood with the rest of the crew. {{wob ref|9696}}

His confidence is however not constant, and he has a feeling of inferiority, of being invisible, dismissible and ignored. {{book ref|mb1|49}} After Club’s death he adds to this a sense of guilt for leaving he crew and trying to escape Luthadel taking Vin and Elend. The greatest consequence was for him to keep burning tin for a year and sensing it all. He had a huge desire to feel useful and being recognized for it. {{book ref|mb2|14}}
== History ==
Named Jedal after his father, he was born and raised in the Eastern Lands, near the wastelands of grit and sand. It was many years before the Collapse, and the Lord Ruler still lived. He was a dirty, ragged thing—like most other skaa children in the Final Empire. He snapped at five years old as Tineye and was physical and mentally mistreated by his father and other Skaa. His mother [[Margel]] called for his brother Clubs asking him to come and save him. He did and in exchange for his nephew he gave a bag of coins to his father. When leaving the house, and asked the boy for his name, and due to his hatred of his father, he used the name ''Lestibournes''' as reference to the Eastern street slang phrase, 'lefting I'm born', which means 'I've been abandoned'. He would later be renamed Spook by Kelsier. {{book ref|mb3|23}}
=== Childhood ===▼
In his family it had been his grandfather who had had noble blood. Although it is not mentioned explicitly it is likely that it was his grandfather on his mother's side, as [[Clubs]] was also an [[Allomancer]]. He also mentions that he never knew his grandfather, having grown up on the streets. {{book ref|mb3|53}}
=== The Skaa rebellion ===
During the skaa rebellion Spook is mainly involved as a sentry with important watches, or lookout for the crew's hideout. He participates in the crew's planning sessions, but rarely contributes to them other than serving drinks or getting things. {{book ref|mb1|32}} He is captured along with [[Renoux|OreSeur]] and were being taken to the square for execution in the first cart of a caravan, {{book ref|mb1|33}} but were saved by Kelsier, Ham and the rest of the crew. {{book ref|mb1|34}} After that, during the last battle with the Lord Ruler, he fetched the apprentices and led them to be messengers. {{book ref|mb1|35}}
=== Siege of Luthadel ===
=== Urteau ===
Elend and Vin sent him to Urteau to gather as much information as he could about the Citizen and his government there. {{book ref|mb3|14}}
During his stay at [[Urteau]], he becomes an [[Allomancy|Allomantic]] [[savant]], flaring tin all the time, to spy on [[Quellion]] and [[Beldre]]. He becomes so sensitive to light that he has to wear a blind fold, however, his other sharpened senses are able to make up for the inconvenience.{{book ref|mb3|14}} During a fight, Spook is stabbed with a sword piercing a [[pewter]]arm. The tip of the sword become a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike and grants him the ability to burn [[pewter]].{{book ref|mb3|16}}{{book ref|mb3|26}} Thus he is corrupted by [[Ruin]], which causes him to have visions of [[Ruin]] in the appearance of [[Kelsier]]. He eventually realizes this and pulls the spike out of himself.{{book ref|mb3|58}} Guided by Ruin, he survived [[Quellion]]'s fire execution and is later called the '''Survivor of the Flames'''.{{book ref|mb3|38}} When Spook realizes Ruin's plan, he diverts water back to the canals to stop the raging fire, almost dying in the process. After Spook saves the city from destruction, he awakens from his collapse and is given a message to send to Vin by Kelsier in a vision.{{book ref|mb3|58}}{{book ref|mb3|64}}▼
He was a very good at sneaking into the Citizen’s house, where he went not only to listen to important information of the city, confirming the [[Quellion]]’s (the Citizen) ideology and concerns on Elend as tyrant; but to watch his sister [[Beldre]]. Spook liked her for her beauty and her sadness. {{book ref|mb3|14}} He becomes so sensitive to light that he has to wear a blind fold; however, his other sharpened senses are able to make up for the inconvenience. {{book ref|mb3|16}}
He scouted the city and understood the mood of the people. He was horrified with the killings of not only nobles but their descendants and all other inhuman practices in the City. Spook hired a thief lord [[Durn]] who helped him get some news from the City, he took him to the execution of 10 skaa with noble blood but asked him to count the skulls. During the speech after the execution, Spook got infuriated and when he got close to [[Beldre]] he spoke to her, fist asking if she agreed with the executions, later letting her know he was the man who would kill his brother. He was so into the conversation he failed to notice he was exposed and [[Quellion]]´s men went after him. He understood they were Allomancers when they used their power and he lost the fight. {{book ref|mb3|16}}
During the fight, Spook was stabbed with a sword that also pierced a [[pewter]]arm. The tip of the sword became a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike and granted him the ability to burn [[pewter]]. The spike also gave Ruin access to Spook and got into his mind using [[Kelsier]]´s voice. So when he wakes up from the lost fight inside the burning building and hears Kelsier asking him to move on, find vials and burn pewter, he obeys, thus finding his new ability (which he doesn’t recognize as Hemalurgy) and thus trusting the voice in his head.{{book ref|mb3|16}}{{book ref|mb3|26}}
Spook receives [[Breeze]], [[Allrianne]] and [[Sazed]] into the city and helps them hide providing them with intel. He shows them the cave where the Lord Ruler’s cache was and suggested it as their base. {{book ref|mb3|29}} He tried to talk to Sazed about Kelsier’s voice but with Sazed doubting his beliefs, Spook didn’t fully confide and just trusted they were being protected by the Survivor. {{book ref|mb3|31}}

=== The Final Ascension ===
After the [[Final Ascension]], he leads the survivors into the ''new world'' created by [[Sazed]] and is given the full powers of a Mistborn.{{book ref|mb3|epilogue}} However, he does not have the strength of a [[lerasium]] Mistborn, but a Mistborn of the strength of a typical Allomancer around the end of The Final Empire.{{wob ref|5265}} Sazed also heals the damage Spook had done to himself by becoming a tin Savant.
Spook was referred to as the '''Lord Mistborn'''. It is not clear what his role in that early government is, but he is clearly very prominent and powerful, judging by the fact that his Eastern street slang becomes known as [[High Imperial]]. He is also known to have engaged in philosophy and appears to be somewhat aware of the inner workings of the Shards, and is noted for
He is visited at some point by the
[[Steris]] implies that Spook ruled as an emperor for a century before stepping down from power.{{book ref|bom|5}} [[Marasi]] later refers to him as a "governor" who ruled for a century.{{book ref|bom|6}}
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Spook is the crew’s best Tineye, so he usually got the most important watches. He snapped at 5 years old. {{book ref|mb1|32}}

|Tin burning ... Notting about the seeing. Wasing about the not seeing.▼
He had flared his tin nonstop for a year straight—never letting up, keeping his body in a constant state of super-heightened senses—and it had changed him; he became an [[Allomancy|Allomantic]] [[savant]]. {{book ref|mb3|14}} Because of this, he had a blurring array of sensory knowledge that his body could instinctively use. He could feel disturbances in the air, sense tremors in the floor, and could know where people were simply by how close their heartbeats sounded. {{book ref|mb3|16}}

== Relationships ==▼
Spook had a particular relationship with Kelsier. The latter named him Spook and gave him a spot in his Crew. It was more than a favor to Clubs which is shown by Kelier’s interest on talking with him on his native language and giving him moral support. After Kelsier’s death, much of Spooks efforts is to become someone that he would have been proud of {{book ref|mb3|14}} to the point where Ruin uses this connection to impersonate Kelsier voice in Spook’s mind. {{book ref|mb2|14}}
▲== Relationships ==
=== Vin ===
Vin liked Spook, though she considered him strange and young. {{book ref|mb1|20}} Sensing her kindness, he gave her a pink handkerchief as the traditional gift a young man gives a lady that he wishes to seriously court, she was not interested though. {{book ref|mb1|22}} After that, Spook was uncomfortable with Vin’s presence until they had a quick chat and she confessed she would always love Elend; he understood and even gave her good advice on using
=== Elend ===
Elend and Spook have a cautious relationship in the beginning as the first one can sense the latter liked Vin {{book ref|mb2|6}} But they continue to grow fond of each other as they spend more and more time together. {{book ref|mb2|27}} Elend later on reinforces Spook that he is not being dismissed and he is valued for his skills of scout and Tineye. {{book ref|mb1|49}}
