In modern times the Renaissance physician/alchemist Paracelsus re-introduced the mythological figure of Vulcan as the patron deity of alchemy and as symbolic of the hermetic art. To Paracelsus Vulcan was synonymous with both the alchemist/physician’s manipulation of fire, heating and distilling of nature’s properties for medicine, and the transforming power and creative potential locked within Man, the greater invisible Man or a ...

Alchemy is an early protoscientific and philosophical discipline combining the elements of chemistry, metallurgy, physics, medicine, astrology, semiotics, mysticism, and art. Alchemy has been practiced in ancient Egypt, India, and China, in Classical Greece and Rome, in the Islamic Empire, and then in Europe up to the 19th century — in a complex network of schools and philosophical systems spanning at least 2500 years. The alchemists did not follow what is now known as the scientific method, and much of the "knowledge" they p ...

In the anime he is the second youngest Homunculus. With the appearance of a Seven to eleven year-old child, he is exceptional as he possesses the ability to perform alchemy (unlike the other Homunculi), and is unique even among most alchemists in that he can transmute without a transmutation circle. He can do this because of his right arm and left leg, which originally belonged to Edward Elric. He can also fuse his body's form with other objects, whether or not the objects are organic. In one instance, Wrath accidentally fused himself to the ...

He is one of the older Homunculi. In the anime, he is old enough to have been familiar to Greed but young enough that he doesn't recognize Hohenheim. He has the total mentality of a child and has a very dependent nature. True to his name, he is always eager to eat anything, or anyone, living or dead. In the anime version, he is physically very strong, with agility disproportionate to his size. The muscles in his jaws are also very powerful and his saliva is acidic, dissolving even the toughest metals to feed his ravenous appetite. He emotion ...

Sultry and cool-headed, Lust is the first of the full-fledged Homunculi encountered in the series. Her title is "Ultimate Lance." Her fingers (actually her fingernails/tips) are able to extend, and her fingernails or fingertips turn into razor sharp blades which can seemingly pierce through everything. She has also lashed out thin projectiles from her fingertips from time to time (which are never physically seen, but are depicted as a glimmering strand no thicker than the breadth of a strand of hair), although it is possible they are ...

An effeminate figure with a dry wit, Envy has the ability to assume the form of any person and copy their voice. He also displays high agility, feats of superhuman strength when enraged, and the power to manipulate his body to form weapons. Envy claims that he has forgotten what he originally looked like (a teenage Hohenheim in the anime), but in truth chose not to revert to his human form out of hatred for his "father," whom he resembled. As the oldest surviving Homunculus, he is most comfortable in the "adorable" form of a young androgynou ...

The youngest Homunculus in the anime. She assumed the identity of Captain Juliet Douglas, a soldier who was said to have sparked the Ishbal War by killing an unarmed Ishbal child (yet mysteriously died two years before the war had started). Through manipulation and plotting with Pride she became his secretary, serving as his emissary/executive assistant. Sloth is hydrokinetic and is watery in composition (as all homunculi powers match up with the laws of alchemy one can only assume that Sloth can control the color and pressure of her ...

A slick character, a ladies' man and all-around arrogant fellow, Greed is the ancient Homunculus known as the "Ultimate Shield." He is able to make himself impervious to harm by rearranging the bonds between the carbon atoms in his body and changing his skin into an unnamed carbon-based substance (presumably black diamond or carbon steel), which gives him the appearance of a black-skinned monster. Interestingly, when in this form he does not move his mouth when he speaks, but does when he laughs. Unlike the other Homunculi (except Env ...

A loyal Chimera that swore loyalty to Greed. Much like Nina, he was fused with a dog but retained his human appearance. Because he is part dog, he can use his newfound speed along with his great swordsmanship, and his sense of smell is superior to that of a normal human. He was killed by the Homunculi when he fought them to give Greed safe passage to Dante. In the English dub, his name is romanized as Dorochet. In the manga version, Roa and Dolcetto are killed by King Bradley in the sewers during the military raid on Devil's ...

One of the Chimeras that joined Greed to get revenge on the military for what they did to her. She, Dolcetto, and Roa were part of the Amestris Special Forces, whose defiling of an Ishbal temple and killing everyone in it was the real catalyst for the war. Her unit was sent to the 5th Laboratory to keep them quiet, under the supervision of Basque Grand. There they became test subjects in Chimera research. Martel was fused with a snake, giving her enhanced agility, the ability to contort/move her body like a ...
