==Quotes==
*The law is there to keep us from ruining everyone else's ability to explore. Without law, there's no freedom. That's why I am what I am.  
*Steris, I think we're all like that. Shuffled from place to place by duty, or society, or God Himself. It seems like we're just along for the ride, even in our own lives. But once in a while, we do face a choice. A real one. We may not be able to choose what happens to us, or where we'll stop, but we point ourselves in a direction.  
*The definition of a lawman, Uncle, is easy... He's the man who takes the bullet so nobody else has to.  
*His clothing was terribly dusty, but well tailored: a fine suit, a silver cravat at the neck, twinkling cuff links on the sleeves of his fine white shirt.  He had cultivated a look that appeared out of place, as if he were planning to attend a fine ball back in Elendel rather than scrambling through a dead town in the Roughs hunting a murderer.  
*He always felt stronger in the mists. He felt like someone was watching, when he was out in them.  
*What is it about you that makes me want to punch you, even when you're saying something helpful?  
*Wax clenched his jaw, but couldn't force down the trembling that took him. He lived it again, holding her as she died. Knowing he'd killed her.  That hatred seethed inside of him. Hatred for Harmony. Hatred for the world. And yes. Hatred for himself.  
==Trivia==
*Brandon originally intended Wax's instinctive ability to create a steel bubble to be a result of him being a savant in the combination of his Allomantic and Feruchemical powers. He has since backed up on that, as he realized Wax wasn't showing any savant-like consequences.[75]
*Wax is one of only three Crashers ever born.[61]
*Wax prefers Stagin's whiskey in his Allomantic vials. Steris prefers to use cod-liver oil in the vials that she prepares for Wax.
