Of the two external physical metals, iron is by far the less flashy. Utilized by a misting, iron is generally used as a purely defensive mechanism, cancelling out the efforts of enemy coinshots by ironpulling enemy projectiles into a wooden shield. Iron is also less useful by itself in jumping, since using iron requires a large, well anchored piece of metal at your destination. Both metals performance is greatly enhanced when used in tandem, allowing feats like those performed by Kelsier in his battle with the inquisitor.
A misting who can use iron is called a Lurcher.
==Feruchemical Use==
Iron, when used by a feruchemist, can be used to store physical weight. This is not accomplished by changing the Feruchemist's mass, but by changing the force of gravity on the Feruchemist. This change does not effect things that the Feruchemist is wearing, but is great enough that a feruchemist storing weight can safely fall great distances, as the feruchemist's surface area is sufficient to slow the fall to safe speeds.
A feruchemist tapping weight can grow proportionally heavier than their size. Although this is not as useful as storing weight in many cases, it has significant martial applications. Specifically, by tapping iron during key moments, the feruchemist can add force to their blows, and can use added weight to withstand attacks.
