Haunted by the past
A nightmare that seemed so unreal
I wish that I could turn back time
And spare the pain that we both feel
And now we’ve changed
Things will never be the same

We were foolish then
But our trials served to make us strong
The burdens are not yours alone
We’ve sought the answers for so long
But they’re not free
They cost you more than they cost me
(My brother…)

I promise you, there is nothing I won’t give
To see this through

To find a way to make atonement for my sin and see
See your smiling face again

†»Overall | Edward stands at about 5’4 weighing in at about 150 pounds, the automail making him heavy for his height. He is rather slim about the waist with a wide chest and shoulders, making for a sort of strong, stocky build. Currently, he sports the automail Hohenheim made; not nearly as good as what he was wearing in Amestris, but decent enough to get the job done. Edward’s hair is long and golden, kept in high ponytail out of the way, defying the short, slick look of the period. His eyes are large and also golden, more like a cat’s than a human’s a pleasant compliment to deeply tanned skin from years wandering deserts. He usually dons an ivory button down shirt with arm bands and a tan vest over khaki coloured slacks.

When we’ve paid the price at last
And we are whole once more
Life will be the way it was
The way it was before the day
She slipped away
Together we’ll redeem that day

†»Personality |
Edward’s personality is often conflicting; his moods swing more than a pregnant woman’s. Ed is still a child at heart. He's quick to attack whenever anyone comments on his height inclinations. He frequently has fits of rage in these instances which usually result in one party or another being restrained, that party spoken of being mostly Ed himself. Ed is wise far beyond his years, even for the trauma he’s been through but more often than not he’s too emotional to put any of his acquired wisdom to use, which make for an interesting mental standing. Edward is immensely violent, though his morals are strong, and he is compassionate about them in every sense of the word.
Ed tries not to let anything hold him back except where his little brother is concerned. He feels guilty about the situation he’d led them into as children and because of it is protective to a fault. There is nothing in the world apart from –maybe- the value of human life in general that is more important to Ed than his brother and it is a failing of his.

†»History |
Edward Elric's story began in February 1910, when he and Alphonse Elric , his younger brother, attempted to resurrect their dead mother by a forbidden act of alchemy: human transmutation. Unfortunately the attempt backfired, resulting in Alphonse losing his body and Ed his left leg, as well as bringing to life an inhuman monster. In order to save Al's soul, Ed sacrificed his right arm to bind Al's soul to a nearby suit of armor using knowledge he attained from this glimpse into the Gate [of Truth]. Unbeknownst to Ed at the time, he also gains the rare ability to perform transmutations without a circle.

In order to regain what they had lost, Ed and Al decided to search for the legendary Philosopher's Stone. To gain access to the vast amount of research and information on alchemy available only to State Alchemists, Ed and Al decided to take the notoriously difficult State Alchemist’s entrance exam. They stayed for a year in Central with Shou Tucker, the Sewing Life Alchemist, while studying for the exam.
After passing the alchemy exam, Edward and Alphonse set out to look for the Philosopher's Stone. Since the Stone allows the owner to bypass the laws of equivalent exchange, Ed and Al believed that locating the stone would enable them to regain what they have lost in their failed attempt to resurrect their mother. In an effort to help the Elric Brothers in this quest, Mustang issued orders to Edward to conduct an alchemic investigation into the Philosophers Stone, allowing Ed to use his position in the military to legitimately search for the stone without raising suspicion among other officers in the military.

Their search, though, remained ineffective, after searching for some time they had found the answer was buried in the sacrifice of human lives. Unwilling to use this method the brothers looked for other answers, along the way figuring out a deep plot veining through the group of Homunculi that roamed their country. Their part in his life led him eventually, once again to the town of Lior, his first militant assignment. Where, the State Alchemist assassin was planning on using a military attack on the town to create his own philosopher’s stone. The attempt this time is successful, only Ed’s brother ends up being the result, leading to his kidnapping by Dante and the homunculi.
Not long after, in his own desperate attempt to save Alphonse from being used as the philosopher’s stone Edward ended up being killed by the homunculus Envy in a duel for situation dominance. He ended up in a strange place called London, where he once more met his father Hohenhiem who explains what he can of the parallel between Edward’s world and our early 1900’s world. The Edward’s body he was trapped in during this time is killed in a zeppelin crash, allowing his soul to be returned to Amestris when Alphonse uses the stone to resurrect him. As another switch he ends up sacrificing himself once more to bring Alphonse back, both soul and body, the effort leaving him trapped in a country from the parallel world called Germany.
