Now to be serious she had to be at least a hemalurgist, wasn't she saying something about Vin being a princess or queen when Reen saved her?

Could tie in to the noble blood deal with Allomancy. Her mom might have known that she would be special if she had both Hemalurgy and Allomancy to work off of.

Doesn't Vin state that her mom was a ska? He father was the one that provided the noble blood.

Noblemen helped TLR at the Well the first time around, we think he gave them the mistborn metal as a reward so they have the ability to have mistborn and mistings for children, skaa do not.

Yeah no skaa has ever been known to give birth to an Allomancer without noble blood.

My point is....are the Skaa that different from noblemen? Genetically. That has never been clarified to my satisfaction, and a disturbing number of Skaa masquerade as nobles....do they not?

Yes, but if her mom knew Vin had noble blood, (I would hope she did,) then she would know that there was a good chance Vin would have Allomancy. By preforming the ritual to grant Vin Hemalurgy as well, she was ensuring her daughter would be quite powerful in her own right. She was rambling on about her being a princess because to her that meant she would have the powers of Allomancy.

And as for the others, I think the only genetic difference between noblemen and skaa is the genetic trait of Allomancy. When the Lord Ruler took power, he gave his closest supporters the metal that creates Mistborn, imbedding within them the genetic trait to pass down Allomancy. They are genetically different, but only by a very little amount. (Otherwise, there would be no way for noblemen and skaa to interbreed, which obviously happens.)

i think there is no physical difference and the only genetic difference is that they cannot use Allomancy.

This brings up the question of where Feruchemy came from. Why can only Terrismen use it?

The allomancy is the only difference. Well the wealth and that is one too, but genetically that is the only difference we've seen.

I'm still skeptic about her mom knowing what she was doing. The books make it sound as if she were just crazy, that's all.

That's something from another Age... hahahaha. We really don't know a whole lot about Feruchemy other than how it's used. Some of us think that Inquisitors are embedded with some feruchemical traits, but we have never seen it in any other person than a Terrisman

I like the idea of Vin's mom having known that the Hemalurgy would help her out.  I mean, she did potentially have the information, having slept with an Obligator.
