Mistborn

Mistborn is a series of epic fantasy novels by the American author Brandon Sanderson and published by Tor Books. The books follow a series of Allomancers, who are individuals who can consume metal to wield magical powers.

The books are organized into four eras, with large time skips between them; the first two are complete, and the third is currently being written. The first era (published 2006-2008) is fantasy. It chronicles the efforts of a secret group of Allomancers who attempt to overthrow a dystopian empire and establish themselves in a world covered by ash. The second (2011-2022) is a detective story set 300 years later, following the Lawmen Wax and Wayne in their efforts to undermine a criminal ring. The third series will be set in the early computer age with 1980s/1990s technology. The fourth series is planned to be a space opera.

Mistborn has been a critical and commercial success, and has led to adaptations in other media, including tabletop gaming. It is part of Sanderson's Cosmere, an interconnected universe, and thus some elements from Mistborn have appeared in or influenced other stories.

Setting :

Mistborn is set on the planet Scadrial. It is home to two gods, Preservation and Ruin, both of which are shards of an original deity named Adonalsium. The imbalance and relationship between these powers have shaped Scadrial into a borderline inhospitable place, with a red sky, brown foliage, and an unnatural thick mist that blankets the land each night. The only habitable regions of the planet are at the poles. The habitable North is organized into the Final Empire, an autocratic society dominated by an unageing emperor known as the Lord Ruler. The empire is also overseen by an extensive nobility; the distant descendants of the Lord Ruler's allies during the formation of the empire a thousand years earlier. Much of Era One takes place in and around the city of Luthadel, capital of the empire and home to the nobles' keeps as well as the Lord Ruler's sanctuary, Kredik Shaw.

By Era Two, set 300 years later, the planet has been greatly reshaped by an apocalyptic interaction of divine power known as the Catacendre. This has wildly adjusted the climate of the planet and resulted in a new god named Harmony. The former territory of the Final Empire has been replaced by a lush grassland of Harmony's creation named the Elendel Basin. More distant are the Roughs, which are less arable. On the far side of the planet, the world's south pole is inhabited by a distinct group of humans, who had been totally isolated until the improved climate and technology made interaction possible. These include the Malwish, an enigmatic advanced society that always wears masks.

Magic :

Scadrial is home to three magical disciplines: Allomancy, Feruchemy, and Hemalurgy. All three magic systems are based on metals, which are used by the Invested individual to grant them specific abilities. The series makes use of hard magic principles, and so all three disciplines have rigorously defined rules which are defined in the books' appendices.

Allomancy :

In the Mistborn series, Allomancy is a predominantly genetic ability that allows a person to metabolize ("burn") metals, ingested by the Allomancer, for magical powers that can enhance physical and mental capacities. For example, by burning tin, an Allomancer may improve their perceptive abilities, such as eyesight and hearing. There are 16 metals that such Allowances can use, with each metal granting a specific ability. In addition to these, there are "god metals" with other effects. A Mistborn is able to use all 16, and a Misting may use a single one only.

Feruchemy :

Feruchemy is a genetic ability found among the people of the Terris region. A person who can use only one Feruchemical metal is known as a Ferring, while those who can use them all are called Feruchemists. They use the same metals as Allomancers, but rather than ingesting them, they can be worn, carried, or implanted. The metal is not consumed but is used like a battery to store a property for retrieval later. For example, a Feruchemist could store physical strength in a piece of pewter- making themselves weak for a time- to later retrieve that strength and become very powerful for a short period. Usually only the Feruchemist that originally stored the attribute can use it. Beginning in Era Two, interbreeding has introduced Twinborn, who have a single allomantic power as well as a Feruchemical power.

Hemalurgy :

Hemalurgy allows the transfer of allomantic and feruchemical powers from one person to another, though with a net loss of power. It is the least known among the three arts. It is done by driving metal spikes through the body of the power donor, and then permanently impaling these in the receiver's body in specific locations. These spikes may pierce key organs without killing the host; notably, the Steel Inquisitors of Era One had large spikes through their eye sockets.

The world of Mistborn / Scadrial is home to many women who could end up naked and embarrassed.

Will it be Vin :

from Mistborn Era 1?

or will it be one of the women of Mistborn Era 2, such as Steris :

or Marasi :

or maybe it is Ranette :

In either case, how does the nudity occur, and how does the character in question react to her sudden, unexpected, and hopefully extended period of time stuck in a state of embarrassing nudity?
