Feruchemists wear metals on their body, and depending on the type of metal, they can store particular attributes into the metal which they can draw upon later, like a kind of battery. The larger the piece of metal is (and the closer it is to Allomantic purity), the more of that particular attribute can be stored. A Feruchemist can draw upon their metals in increased, compounded qualities, but the faster they do this, the lesser returns they receive. Only the Feruchemist who stored those attributes can draw upon them later, however. Like Mistborn and Mistings, there are Feruchemists that can utilize one or all of the metals.
