A '''Twinborn''' is a [[Metalborn]] with at least one [[Allomantic]] power and one [[Feruchemical]] power.
Twinborn only began to appear after the [[Final Ascension]], due to the intermingling of the [[Terris]] people with the other citizens of the [[Final Empire]]. This mingling also had the effect of diluting Feruchemical power, creating [[Ferring]]s.{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} The interaction of

▲Twinborn only began to appear after the [[Final Ascension]], due to the intermingling of the [[Terris]] people with the other citizens of the Final Empire. This mingling also had the effect of diluting Feruchemical power, creating [[Ferring]]s. The interaction of [[Feruchemy]] and [[Allomancy]] in a single person allows for practical benefits of the power ([[Gold|Bloodmaker]]s healing in a time bubble, [[Coinshot]]s augmenting their weight with Feruchemical [[Iron]]), etc.
▲It should be noted however, that it is difficult to be born a [[Mistborn]] and full [[Feruchemist]]. This is due to fact that they share portions of the individual's "spiritual DNA".{{wob ref|3440}}, thus preventing a full manifestation of both abilities. Whether this means someone can be born a full [[Mistborn]] and [[Ferring]] or full [[Feruchemist]] and [[Misting]] is yet to be determined.

If the Twinborn is fortunate enough to obtain the Allomantic and Feruchemical abilities of the same metal, they can practice [[Compounding]]. Initially seen in The Final Empire, the [[Lord Ruler]] is able to compound all the metals (as a result of his

== 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
=== Resonance ===
Twinborn, individuals who are both [[Ferring]]s and [[Misting]]s, also have resonances.{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} [[Resonance]]s are additional powers or effects gained by people with access to more than one [[Investiture|Invested Art]].{{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}}
