'''The Set''' is a secret organization on [[Scadrial]]{{book ref|mb4|15}} who serve the deity known as [[Trell (Trellism)|Trell]], which is an avatar of [[Autonomy]]. Their primary purpose is to overthrow the [[Elendel Basin]] government{{book ref|mb6|27}} and rule Scadrial in order to prove to Autonomy that life on the planet can continue to exist.{{book ref|mb7|35}}

== History ==
=== Origins ===
The Set was the result of a domino effect stemming from [[Kelsier]]'s actions. At some point a number of semi-cosmere-aware individuals discovered the existence of [[Shard|ancient gods]], went looking for them, and ended up finding/being found by Autonomy.{{wob ref|15983}} [[Telsin Ladrian]] eventually discovered the existence of the Set and joined it (in a manner very similar to how the Set found Autonomy), later recruiting [[Edwarn Ladrian]]. They eventually rose to the ranks of Sequence and Suit, respectively.

=== The Vanishers ===
Edwarn Ladrian faked his death{{book ref|mb4|3}} to enter the Set. He provided funding for [[Miles Dagouter]] and the [[Vanishers]].{{book ref|mb4|epilogue}} The Vanishers were instructed to kidnap female descendants of the [[Spook|Lord Mistborn]] in order to breed more [[Misting]]s for some unknown purpose.{{book ref|mb4|7}} The Vanishers did this through a series of elaborate, and seemingly supernatural, train robberies. [[Waxillium Ladrian]] discovered that his uncle lived after capturing Miles. During Wax's encounter with his uncle, Wax stole Edwarn's pocketbook that contained appointments and notes.{{book ref|mb4|epilogue}}

=== The Bands of Mourning ===
Wax was provided with information from the [[kandra]] that the Set was operating in the city of [[New Seran]], and that his sister [[Telsin]] was observed there.{{book ref|mb6|3}} While Wax and company traveled to New Seran they were attacked in a Set train robbery.{{book ref|mb6|7}} Professor [[Irich]] was present.{{book ref|mb6|8}} When they arrived in New Seran Wax and [[Steris]] attended a ball at the home of a local noble Lady [[Kelesina Shores]]. Wax learned about Set activities near [[Dulsing]]. When he confronted Lady Shores she was communicating with Suit through a strange metal box. Lady Shores was killed by a servant and discovered to be wearing a [[gold]] [[metalmind]] that was not keyed to an individual. The goldmind had a large amount of health stored in it and [[Wayne]] was able to tap it.{{book ref|mb6|16}}

The party then traveled to Dulsing, where a Set compound had been built around the entire town. They infiltrated the compound and discovered what appeared to be a large boat in the center. The boat was actually the ''[[Brunstell]]'', a [[Southern Scadrian]] airship. Wax was able to rescue Telsin. [[Marasi]] and [[MeLaan]] discovered and rescued a Southern Scadrian named [[Allik]] who had been held captive in the offices of Professor Irich. They escaped the compound in the ''[[Wilg]]'', an outrigger from the main airship. 

From there they attempted to get to the [[Sovereign's temple]] to secure the [[Bands of Mourning]] before a Set expedition could. They arrived at the Temple first and the Set arrived shortly after. Suit used threats and was able to accompany Wax into the Temple. Wax and company were then betrayed by Telsin who was revealed to hold the Set rank of Sequence, a higher rank than Suit. Suit and Sequence were also revealed to have [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] Spikes, granting themselves three [[Metallic Arts]] abilities each. 

The search for the Bands appeared to be lost. The Set was interested in the Bands of Mourning, but their primary objective was to secure the Hunter airship, and its bombs, that were abandoned at the temple.{{book ref|mb6|27}} Upon first entering the Temple [[Wayne]] took the spear tip from a statue of the [[Sovereign]]. He had put the spear tip in Marasi's bag. She discovered that it was in fact the Bands of Mourning. She was able to rescue Wax, who then used the Bands to confront Suit on the departing airship. He apprehended Suit and recovered the airship. The Set members were imprisoned and the airship was returned to the surviving Southern Scadrians. Sequence escaped from the Temple in the ''Wilg''.

=== Accelerated Timeline ===

The Set had evidently planned for its goals to be reached a century in the future. With the discovery of the Bands of Mourning, Southern Scadrians, and their technology, the timeline was accelerated. While held in an Elendel jail, Suit was visited by a mysterious creature with red eyes. He told Suit that the Set had decided that allowing civilization on Scadrial to continue was too dangerous and that they decided to "remove life on this sphere instead." The creature then activated an explosive device, killing Suit.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}

== Organization ==

The Set is an organization with a strict hierarchy among their ranks, codenames are used to indicate where one is in this hierarchy.{{wob ref|15848}} The highest rank among them is 'The Key' who serves as the organization's leader.{{book ref|mb7|21}} Each rank within the set must immediately report to the rank above them, serving at their direct orders, despite this rigidity however [[Autonomy]] encourages its members to be bold and thus it is common for those on the bottom rungs to try and climb up the organization.{{book ref|mb7|35}} The lowest ranked members, Cycles, are those in charge of local hired muscle, this muscle is granted no rank themselves.{{book ref|mb7|3}}

The ranks within the set are:{{book ref|mb7|21}}

* The Key
* Series
* Sequence
* Suit
* Cycle
