Add 5 scene-class overlays for event backgrounds: Noble interior (bright marble, colored fabrics, candlelight), Institutional interior (cold stone, iron fixtures), Noble arena (Colosseum-style fighting pit with house banners), Skaa/underclass (ash-stained, cramped), and Exterior (overcast Scadrial landscape). Scene-class mapping table routes each event scene to its overlay. Noble interiors use bright marble instead of dark mahogany to contrast wealth against the ash-choked exterior world.

Core Systems
- Allomancy — Genetic trait system. Dormant potential activates via "snapping" into Misting types or full Mistborn.
- Lord Ruler Attention — Variable (0–100) tracking defiance; escalating consequences.
- Compounding — Allomantic + Feruchemical overlap triggers on yearly pulse.
- Hemalurgy — Spike-based power transfer system.
