Tin is the Internal Physical Pulling metal. An Allomancer burning tin has greatly enhanced senses. Feruchemists can use tin to store enhanced senses, and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, tin steals senses.
Allomantic Use
A tin Misting is known as a Tineye. Burning tin grants an Allomancer increased sensitivity in all five senses.[1] Furthermore, they are able to see through the mists that cover Scadrial.[2] An Allomancer can flare tin, causing a huge burst of sensory input, to clear his head from pain or exhaustion.[3] Tin will allow an Allomancer to see in the dark.[4]
Feruchemical Use

A tin Ferring is known as a Windwhisper. Tin is used to store sensitivity of senses. One sense may be stored each in a tinmind.[1] Unlike an Allomancer burning tin, it does not allow a Feruchemist to see things that would be otherwise unobservable; instead, it compounds the potency of their senses currently available.[5] While storing senses, those senses become weaker. For example, Sazed wore glasses while storing eyesight.[6]
Tapping sight causes the edge of the Feruchemist's vision to blur, and sacrifices immediate field of vision in favor of a more distant, binocular view. Tapping too much sight can induce nausea. [7]
Storing sense of smell dilutes a Feruchemist's sense of taste. [8]
Creatures with other senses can create tinminds for those senses as well as the standard five. For instance, a platypus feruchemist could create an electricfieldsensemind.[citation needed]
Hemalurgic Use
When used as a Hemalurgic spike, tin steals human senses.[9] The kandra Blessing of Awareness[9] gave the mistwraiths sentience, with the added benefit of heightened senses.
