It is only briefly talked about right before Zane goes to the final confrintation between him and Vin. He runs from Straff's tent into the night to a small tree down by the river. He then pulls out his atium, and mistcloak, which he says he doesn't wear because he doesn't like the way it rubs against  protusion in his back made from a spear tip lodged in him from a wound earlier in his life. Hope this helped.

And then The Heros of the Ages after that.

He was very cool and all, but his heart sick self monalouge(Sp?) got out of hand every once and a while. How can some one with so much power be just so emotionally powerless. Kinda ironic if you ask me.

((off the subject though, I would have to say I really want to see a coinshot in the next book that has a Keslier personality. Testing his powers when ever he can. Man I loved that guy.))

Shades are known through the ages in many a many a book. Most recently I believe, was the Everis Cale Triology and the Twilight War Triology as well. These of course steming from the even older books of the "Return of the Archmage" when the shadow enclave (almost all shades) returned from the shadow plane and back to faerun.

Anyways, you'll find Shades in many a tales of mythology. Enough that if Atium mistings went by the name, that don't think BranSand would need to pay any dues to any one person.

It's been dead for a while now, but my Username on there is Vox of Faleast, and I have up one charactor so far, with a little bit of back story to him.

The crowd has spoken and thug seems to be the over all favorite, but it just seems a little one dimensional. You take hits and keep on going. At least with a soother it would take some pretty advanced body language learning. I guess the thing that keeps me going back to the Lurcher and Coinshot is the ingenuty it would take to make them worhwhile.

Take a lurcher for example. Standing between two buildings, both two story, with windows and metal latches. Pulls on the top most window really hard so he shoots up, tugs on the opposite buildings top window causing him to arc away from the origanol building, but still pulling on the origanol latch so his momentum would carry him to the roof. After some practice, both the lurcher and a coinshot would easly be able to fly through the night like a mistborn, and probably be a decent assassin/crowd control figure.

Like a little person getting drunk faster when drinking?

When ever I played/wrote short stories/ whatever else, I thought that flaring Atium just let you see a little further into the future. I imagine with duralumin inhanced atium you would just see insanely farther into the future, but this would only hinder you as it would give you more time to alter the effects of which know the future has created, effectivly making that small twitch Vin saw on Zane, into a step or jump. Muh more noticeable.
