The Elric Family plays a crucial role in the story of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. They have a long history with the world of alchemy, especially Ed and Alphonse, who lost their limbs in a forbidden ritual.
In this article, we will discuss about all Elric family members in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Who are they? Check out the review below!
Van Hohenheim
Van Hohenheim is the father of Edward and Alphonse and a powerful alchemist user. He mysteriously disappeared, leaving his two sons behind. However, he later reappeared to correct his past mistakes.
Although Van Hohenheim appears cruel and ambitious, he is truly a gentle person towards his family. He deeply regrets neglecting his two sons for years.
Trisha Elric
Next, there is Ed and Al's mother, Trisha Elric. She is kind and caring. Although she is saddened by the loss of her husband, she always tries to smile in front of her sons to mask her sadness.
Trisha contracted a terminal illness that took her life. After Trisha's death, Ed and Al performed Human Transmutation to resurrect their mother. However, the ritual ended in disaster.
Edward Elric
Edward is the eldest son of the Elric family. During the Human Transmutation incident, Edward lost his right arm and left leg, which he replaced with devices called Automail.
Another side effect of the incident is that Edward retains his youthful, childlike appearance. He is often teased for his short stature. Despite this, Edward is a skilled alchemist.
Edward can use alchemy without first creating a formula circle. He can manipulate metal to attack enemies. He also possesses skilled martial arts skills.
Alphonse Elric
Alphonse Elric is Edward's younger brother, who lost all his limbs in a forbidden ritual. Edward was only able to save his soul and place it in a suit of armor.
In contrast to Edward's aggressive nature, Alphonse has a calm nature and tends to avoid conflict. However, he does not hesitate to fight to protect what is precious to him.
Winry Rockbell
Winry Rockbell was Edward's best friend and later his wife. She is a skilled Automail mechanic. She has a cheerful nature, strong determination, and a deep passion for her work.
Windy often worries about Edward's well-being. Ultimately, the two of them are able to live together as a happy family. They also have two adorable children.
Edward and Winry's 2 Children
So far, there is no information about the names of Edward and Winry's children. Their first child is a boy who looks very similar to Edward. Meanwhile, their second child is still a toddler and looks exactly like Winry.
