Steel Inquisitors
OrganizationHemalurgic creatures: robed priests with massive metal spikes hammered point-first through eyes and out back of skull, granting Mistborn powers
Steel Inquisitors begin as terrifying Hemalurgic enforcers of the Lord Ruler's theocracy, their eye-spikes granting them Allomantic and Feruchemical powers. As the series progresses, their role shifts from unquestioning agents of the Final Empire to pawns in the larger cosmic conflict between Ruin and Preservation. Their very existence becomes a symbol of Hemalurgy's corrupting influence, with their spikes serving as conduits for Ruin's control. By the end of the series, the Inquisitors' fate is tied to the fate of the world itself, their powers and purpose ultimately subverted by the very forces they were meant to serve.
