Lord Ruler's Steel Plate

The Lord Ruler's Steel Plate stands as a legendary artifact from the Final Empire era in the Mistborn series, symbolizing the godlike power of Rashek, the Lord Ruler, who wore it to push away metal weapons with Allomantic steel. Though it plays no direct role in the primary narrative of The Hero of Ages, its legacy endures as a relic of the Steel Ministry's inquisitorial arsenal, highlighting the technological and magical innovations that defined the Lord Ruler's reign. Across the series, it evolves from an active tool of oppression in earlier books to a historical curiosity post-Catacendre, underscoring the fall of the old regime.
