'''Identity''' is
== Feruchemy ==▼
== Mechanics and interactions ==
Across the cosmere, use of magic is tied to the user's Identity, and power stored by one person is hard to access by a different person (though it is possible, albeit ''extremely'' unlikely, for two people to have matching Identity by chance{{wob ref|874}}). This restriction is the reason, for example, that [[BioChromatic Breath|Breath]]s stored or [[metalmind]]s charged by one person cannot be used by anyone else.{{book ref|mb6|3}} However, if someone "blanks" their Identity and stores power, it becomes easier for others to use that power (especially other blanked people, but potentially also non-blanked people, depending on the magic system).{{wob ref|1709}}
▲=== Feruchemy ===
In [[Feruchemy]], Identity is stored in [[aluminum]]. To effectively use aluminum, one must have Feruchemical access to at least one metal besides aluminum. By storing Identity in aluminum and then filling another metalmind, they create an "unkeyed" metalmind that can be used by any Feruchemist.{{book ref|mb6|3}} One example is in [[The Bands of Mourning]]: [[Wax]] finds a gold bracelet filled with healing power that [[Wayne]], a gold Ferring, can access, Wax cannot.{{book ref|mb6|17}} Through a method that has not yet been fully revealed, but which builds on unkeyed metalminds{{wob ref|5656}}, it is also possible to create an [[unsealed metalminds|"unsealed" metalmind]], which ''anyone'' can use to access Feruchemical power; the [[Southern Scadrial]] medallions are an example.{{book ref|mb6|21}}{{wob ref|2112}}
As of [[Mistborn Era 2]], the [[Kandra]] and the [[Terris]] community have begun experimenting with Identity and the other spiritual aspects of Feruchemy, but still understand very little, owing to the rarity of the appropriate Ferrings and metals.{{book ref|mb6|3}}
=== Hemalurgy ===
Someone who has been granted Feruchemical abilities via [[Hemalurgy]] can access the metalminds of the Feruchemist whose abilities were stolen, presumably because they obtain some portion of the original person's Identity in the spike. If two people are spiked with spikes made from the same person, they will both be able to access the original person's metalminds, but not each other's, as their own Identity will interfere.{{wob ref|872}}
More generally, Hemalurgy can overwrite anything attached to the soul, including Identity.{{wob ref|3088}}{{wob ref|9431}}
=== Awakening ===
Like with Feruchemy, Breaths that have been put into an object are keyed to the original Awakener's Identity, and so can only be reclaimed by that Awakener.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}{{wob ref|1709}} However, when Breath is transferred directly from one person to another, the magic system automatically rekeys the Identity of the Breaths to that of the recipient, making Awakening the easiest of the magic systems to gain access to.{{wob ref|1473}}
=== Forgery ===
Storing Identity makes one more susceptible to being affected by many things in the cosmere, including [[Forgery]].{{wob ref|3547}}
=== Lightweaving ===
There is a "pretty tenuous" link between Identity and the different personae that Shallan creates with [[Lightweaving]].{{wob ref|8480}}
=== Parshendi forms ===
[[Syl]] hints that Identity and Connection are involved with the Parshendi ability to [[Singers#Forms|change forms]] and that humans, in denying them that ability, somehow ripped off parts of the Parshendi's souls.{{book ref|sa3|17}}
== Notes ==
* Blanking Identity and tapping Connection can cause someone to gain an accent for a particular area.{{wob ref|2558}}
