== Feruchemical Use ==
A tin [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Windwhisperer'''. Tin is used to store sensitivity of senses. One sense may be stored each in a tinmind and a different tinmind must be used for each sense.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} Unlike an Allomancer burning tin, it does not allow a Windwhisperer to see things that would be otherwise unobservable; instead, it compounds the potency of their senses currently available.{{book ref|mb3|66}} While storing senses, those senses become weaker. For example, [[Sazed]] wore glasses while storing eyesight.{{book ref|mb1|22}}
Tapping sight causes the edge of the Windwhisperer's vision to blur, and sacrifices immediate field of vision in favor of a more distant, binocular view.{{book ref|mb2|19}} Tapping too much sight can induce nausea.{{book ref|mb2|12}} Storing sense of smell dilutes a Windwhisperer's sense of taste.{{book ref|twoa|50}}
