== Scadrial == The method of Initiation for [[Allomancy]] is known as [[Snapping]].{{book ref\|mb1\|17}} A [[Scadrian]]'s potential for Allomancy is set at birth according to their [[Physical Realm\|Physical]], [[Cognitive Realm\|Cognitive]], and [[Spiritual Realm\|Spiritual]] aspects;{{wob ref\|1351}} sufficient trauma during life (or even during birth itself){{book ref\|mb3\|epilogue}}) can then provide the necessary damage to the soul to release this latent potential. A large part of the potential is determined genetically, and Allomancy is known in-universe to run through family lines.{{epigraph ref\|mb3\|81}}{{book ref\|elantris\|part=ars}} After [[Sazed]] [[Catacendre\|Ascends]], creating the new Shard [[Harmony]], he becomes bothered by how Snapping works and alters it somehow,{{wob ref\|4242}} making it much easier to reach the necessary threshold of Spiritual damage; however, he is unable to remove the need for the process entirely.{{wob ref\|1076}} Initiation for [[Feruchemy]] also has a genetic component;{{epigraph ref\|mb3\|68}}; whether it has any further requirements analogous to Snapping is unknown. [[Hemalurgy]] grants powers which have first been stolen from another person via a metal spike.{{epigraph ref\|mb3\|33}}{{epigraph ref\|mb3\|36}}{{epigraph ref\|mb3\|38}}. == Roshar == Little is known about [[Dakhor]], but it may only be available to those from [[Fjordell]], and training in [[Dakhor Monastery]] somehow enables monks to access it.{{wob ref\|14908}} And even less is known about [[ChayShan]] and [[Bloodsealing]] with the only known perquisite is that the person must be [[JinDo]] or [[Dzhamarian]].{{wob ref\|8617}}{{wob ref\|14908}} == Taldain == The precise method of Initiation for [[sand mastery]] on [[Taldain]] is unknown, but it differs from that of AonDor.{{book ref\|elantris\|part=ars}} Sand mastery must be taught and does not appear spontaneously.{{book ref\|ws\|part=ars}} It is unknown how someone gains [[starmarks]], but only a few are chosen to access the power.{{book ref\|ws\|part=ars}} == Vax ==
