Edward Elric

English Voice: Vic Mignogna

Seiyuu: Romi Paku

Ed and his younger brother Al are the two sons of the renowned alchemist Hoenheim Elric. They inherited their father's amazing alchemic abilities and have been practicing alchemy ever since they were young children. However, when they tried to use a forbidden form of alchemy to bring their dead mother back to life, they suffered horrific consequences; Al lost his entire body and Ed lost his left leg. But Ed also gave up his right arm in order to save Al's soul by sealing it inside a suit of armor. After getting an auto-mail(mechanical) arm and leg from his friend Winry and joining the State Alchemists as one of their youngest members, Ed hoped that his position in the State would eventually help him find a way to turn his and Al's bodies back to normal.

Although Ed is the older of the two brothers and is a more skilled alchemist, he is not as emotionally stable as Al and sometimes his rashness, hot-temperment, and passionate feelings get in the way of his judgement(he especially hates it when people make fun of his short size.) He's very quick to react to his emotions, which sometimes gets him in trouble, but his powerful alchemy skills have saved him many times. Although he acts tough and doesn't let anyone, especially not the State, push him around, behind his confindent demeanor he is still a young boy haunted by a terrible past mistake. But he's dedicated his life to finding a way to correct this mistake and he knows that the brotherly bond that he and Al share is the only thing they have to keep on going, which is why he's always ready to place Al's well being before his own.
