== History ==
After the [[Lord Ruler]]'s death and the [[Collapse]], he quickly takes control of the [[Western Dominance]] but is unable to keep control of [[Fadrex City]].{{book ref|mb2|3}}{{book ref|mb2|43}} Cett ended up in a struggle for power whitewith [[Aradan Yomen]], an [[obligator]] in the city. At some point Cett lost 2,000 soldiers in a battle against 500 [[koloss]]. After one year it began to become clear that Yomen would be the one to take control. Cett blamed his disadvantage on a lack of Allomancers (he only had 9). He was manipulated by [[Breeze]] who convinced him that the Lord Rulers [[atium cache]] was in Luthadel and that he could use the atium to buy Allomancers. He decided to lay siege on [[Luthadel]] with an army of 40,000 soldiers to take the Central Dominance and the atium from [[Elend Venture]].{{book ref|mb2|50}}. Before his army arrived he sent 4 Pewterarms, a Smoker, a Lurcher, a Coinshot and a Mistborn with atium to kill Vin. The assassins failed and were killed, but made Vin use up her last atium.
 
In the [[Siege of Luthadel]], Cett's Army was outnumbered by [[Straff Venture]]'s forces of 50,000. Realizing this, he secretly entered Luthadel and presented himself to [[Elend Venture]] at a [[Luthadel Assembly]] meeting, proposing that his troops enter the city and the pair ally against Straff.{{book ref|mb2|35}} However, when Elend is attacked by Mistings, [[Vin]] believes these to be agents of Cett after recognizing one Thug supposedly as a servant of Cett.{{book ref|mb2|38}} Vin and [[Zane Venture]] then enter [[Keep Hasting]], killing Cett's soldiers and almost killing Cett himself--Vin suspected him to be a Mistborn, although he was not.{{book ref|mb2|43}} Cett then leaves the city with his troops.{{book ref|mb2|44}}
