Burning pewter increases a;; your body's physical abilities. Pewter's utility is not simply from the increased strength or speed, as it also enhances the body's natural balance, granting almost unnaturally smooth movements. It also increases reaction speed and gives the user resistance to hot and cold temperatures.
Pewter can be dangerous when it runs out, which is a serious concern since it is the fastest-burning of the eight basic metals. A Thug having just survived a deadly wound can die from the resulting effects when the body runs out of pewter to burn. However, the body will naturally burn pewter in an attempt to heal itself, so even an unconscious Thug can be given additional pewter to survive otherwise life-threatening situations.
Pewter is the fastest burning of all the eight basic metals.
