=== Hemalurgy ===
In [[Hemalurgy]], Identity can be stolen by a [[duralumin]] spike.{{file ref| Hemalurgy table.jpg | Hemalurgy Table}}
Someone who has been granted Feruchemical abilities via [[Hemalurgy]] can access the metalminds of the Feruchemist whose abilities were stolen, presumably because they obtain some portion of the original person's Identity in the spike. If two people are spiked with spikes made from the same person, they will both be able to access the original person's metalminds, but not each other's, as their own Identity will interfere.{{wob ref|872}}▼

More generally, Hemalurgy can overwrite anything attached to the soul, including Identity.{{wob ref|3088}}{{wob ref|9431}}
=== Forgery ===
Storing Identity makes one more susceptible to being affected by many things in the cosmere, including [[Forgery]].{{wob ref|3547}} When a human is soulstamped, the transformation lasts a relatively short period of time, and the best crafted stamps last approximately a day. This is due to the fact that the Identity of a person, as opposed to an object, is constantly growing, changing and shifting.{{tes ref|30}}

===
Forming a bond utilizes Identity and Connection in some manner. Lessening those attributes, such as by storing them in a metalmind, would affect the bond.{{wob ref|9407}}
=== Healing ===
Most healing in the cosmere works by using the three versions of the user's self; their Physical, Cognitive, and Spiritual version.{{wob ref|9441}}{{wob ref|5306}} Healing typically heals the Physical version by matching it to their ideal Spiritual version, which is filtered through the lens of their minds (Cognitive version). Almost all forms of healing in the cosmere are filtered through the perception (Identity) of the user.{{wob ref|7024}}{{wob ref|9623}} If a person hasn't accepted a wound as a part of themselves, they can still heal it regardless of how long they've had it.{{wob ref|12149}} However, even if a wound is recent, if the person has changed their mindset to see it as a part of themselves, they will not be able to heal from it.{{wob ref|6501}}{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}
