Steel Inquisitor Spikes

item

Steel Inquisitor Spikes appears in Mistborn.

Steel Inquisitor Spikes, forged from steel metalminds imbued with powerful Allomantic abilities, represent the brutal pinnacle of the Lord Ruler's Inquisitorial enforcers in the Mistborn Era 1 trilogy. These large spikes, driven through the eyes and spines of Steel Inquisitors, grant them unnatural strength, Feruchemical steelmancy for speed bursts, and crucially, the rare ability to use Allomancy despite their hemalurgic origins. Across the series, they evolve from symbols of imperial terror to pivotal plot devices, enabling Inquisitors to pursue protagonists relentlessly and, in climactic twists, facilitating the Ruin-tainted resurrection of key figures.
