|Marasi begins researching Trell in earnest{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}}
}}
'''Trell''' is a mysterious entity in opposition of [[Harmony]] on [[Scadrial]].{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}} Trell is also the name of the deity worshiped by followers of [[Trelagism]]{{book ref|mb1|9}} and [[Trellism]],{{book ref|mb4|epilogue}} though it is unclear to what extent
Trell is related to one of the sixteen [[Shards]] of [[Adonalsium]].{{wob ref|8631}}{{wob ref|11251}} The identity of that Shard is unknown, though some are more likely candidates than others.{{wob ref|6261}} It is possible that Trell is not itself a full Shard, but rather an avatar, or some other lesser being, which is merely related to a distinct Shard.{{wob ref|12232}}
Harmony used a vast, red haze around Scadrial to represent Trell when meeting with [[Waxillium Ladrian]], and Wax described a sensation of "dread and destruction" choking him upon observing it.{{book ref|mb6|28}} The use of red suggests that the entity is co-opting or corrupting the [[Investiture]] of another Shard.{{wob ref|8340}}{{wob ref|12126}}
== History ==
The onset of Trell's activity in the [[Scadrian System]] is uncertain, though the spread of Trellism, particularly among the Set, suggests Trell may have been quietly influencing events on Scadrial for at least several decades. Beyond Trellism, the first sign of Trell's involvement came in the form of a mysterious [[Hemalurgic]] spike used by [[Paalm]] to hide from Harmony's sight.{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} Between the activities of Trellists, including [[Miles Hundredlives]] and the [[Set]], and Paalm's use of Trell's metal, it seems likely that the actions taken by these parties conform to Trell's own plans. Broadly speaking, this seems to involve issues of social inequality paired with disapproval of Harmony's influences.{{book ref|mb4|11}}{{book ref|mb5|17}}{{book ref|mb5|20}} According to Harmony, Trell had surrounded the planet of Scadrial and was laying seige to Harmony's defenses sometime around {{date|340|FA}}.{{book ref|mb6|28}}

A silvery metal with distinctive, dark red spots is associated with Trell.{{wob ref|8555}} This metal has been utilized as a [[Hemalurgic]] spike in several ways. First and foremost is the strange way that such a spike blinds Harmony to the recepient of the spike.{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} Additionally, the spike may also be used to steal mysterious attributes previously unknown to the [[kandra]]. [[MeLaan]] theorized that Paalm was able to utilize stolen [[Allomancy]] and [[Feruchemy]] by means of these attributes.{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} Lastly, the use of such a spike in [[Rian]] appeared to cause, if nothing else, a level of psychological distress.{{book ref|mb5|9}} It is possible that Miles was spiked with this metal as well.{{wob ref|707}}
== Theories & Speculation ==▼
There are red-eyed [[Faceless Immortals]] which appear to act as agents on behalf of Trell.{{book ref|mb6|}} It is unclear who these beings are and how similar they are to typical kandra.

{{theory}}
Given the limited set of Shards which Trell may be related to{{wob ref|6261}} and the fact that many of these Shards are Shattered or otherwise preoccupied during the time of Trell's involvement on Scadrial, Trell is most often believed to be associated with [[Autonomy]] or [[Odium]].
There is some reason to believe that the [[Dayside]]r man named [[Trell (Taldain)|Trell]] is associated with the entity in some way. Given the man's connection to Autonomy, as a resident of [[Taldain]], some have concluded that the man himself may have been transformed by Autonomy into Trell. Others have supposed that [[Trelagism]] has roots which can be traced back to Trell of Taldain, as evidenced by the emphasis that the religion places on day and night, which has led to speculation that a Shard later co-opted this religion for its own purposes. This is again consistent with Autonomy's observed nature.{{wob ref|3974}}
== Trivia ==
[[Brandon Sanderson|Brandon]]'s plans for Trell in future books were not outlined until after he finished writing the original ''[[Mistborn]]'' trilogy.{{wob ref|4714}} As the ''[[Mistborn Era 2]]'' books were not planned at the time, it comes as no surprise that Trell will have a much more prominent role in the ''[[Mistborn Era 3]]'' trilogy.{{wob ref|12227}}
