Mistborn Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Vin — The entry implies Kelsier first sees her burning pewter as the discovery moment, but Kelsier actually recruits her based on her being a half-skaa with Allomantic potential, and the pewter-burning is revealed during training.

Vin — The Eleventh Metal is not used to separate the Lord Ruler from his Feruchemical bracelets; Vin uses the mists to empower herself and then physically pulls the bracelets off. The Eleventh Metal is used earlier to reveal the Lord Ruler's true nature.

Kelsier — Kelsier did not recruit Vin because Marsh tipped him off; he discovered her himself and Marsh later confirmed she was a Mistborn.

Kelsier — Kelsier did not assassinate several powerful nobles to start a house war; he assassinated specific nobles to frame the Lord Ruler, and the army he recruited was large, not modest.

Sazed — The entry includes the invented detail 'rainbow flowers' in describing the world Sazed reshapes, which is not present in canon.

Dockson — Dockson was not the only non-Allomancer in Kelsier's crew; Clubs was also a non-Allomancer (a Smoker is an Allomancer, so this is incorrect; the actual non-Allomancer was Dockson, but the flag's reasoning is muddled; however, the real error is that Dockson was

Dockson — Dockson was not Kelsier's closest friend; Kelsier's closest friend was his brother Marsh, not Dockson

Allomancers — The entry states that the Lord Ruler suppressed Allomancy for nearly one thousand years, but in canon he actively used and controlled Allomancers among the nobility while suppressing it among skaa.

Allomancers — The entry claims that the rebellion led by Kelsier marked a turning point where Allomancers stopped hiding, but in canon noble Allomancers were openly known and not hiding; only skaa Allomancers were hidden.

Kandra — Kandra were bound by the First Contract to serve the Lord Ruler and his designated masters, not all humanity, and they could refuse certain orders like killing other Kandra.

Kandra — Kandra's primary role was as spies and assassins for the Lord Ruler, not general economic laborers.

The Lord Ruler — The Kandra were not created by the original Terris people; they were created by the Lord Ruler using Hemalurgy and mistwraiths.

The Lord Ruler — The Lord Ruler's eyes are described as having red irises and black pupils, not entirely black with white pupils.

The Final Empire — The event is called the 'Lord Ruler's Ascension' or 'the Lord Ruler's rise,' not the 'Final Cataclysm'; the Final Cataclysm is a different event (the end of the world in the far future).

The Final Empire — The Lord Ruler did not claim to protect humanity from 'evil spirits in the mist'; the mist was a natural phenomenon, and he claimed to protect humanity from the Deepness, which was a destructive force, not evil spirits.
