== Classification ==
Just as individuals with only one Allomantic or Feruchemical power have a special name (i.e. Coinshot, Archivist), each combination of Twinborn has one as well. At this time, only the combination of Crasher (Coinshot and Skimmer) is known in the books. However, [[Wayne]] claims to know the names for each of them.{{book ref|mba1|1}} Excluding the [[God Metal]]s, which have faded into legends by the time of Wax and Wayne, this makes for a total of 256 possible combinations.
 
=== Resonance ===
Twinborn, individuals who are both [[Ferring]]s and [[Misting]]s, also have resonances]{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} [[Resonance|Resonances]] are additional powers or effects gained by people with access to more than one [[Investiture|Invested Art]] or [[Surge]].{{wob ref|4570}} This is described as the two powers combining to create an effect, implying that Twinborn resonances are not a new power all together.{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} [[Waxillium Ladrian]]'s ability to create a "[[steel#Allomantic Use|steel bubble]]" to deflect metal moving around him{{book ref|mb4|1}} was originally intended to be the result of him being a [[savant]] in the resonance between his [[steel#Allomantic Use|Allomantic steel]] and [[iron#Feruchemical Use|Feruchemical iron]]. Brandon later indicated that may not still be accurate, as he realized Wax was not manifesting the usual consequences of savantism.{{wob ref|1563}}{{wob ref|8115}}
