Roy Mustang

[Edit]
Overview
Roy Mustang (ロイ・マスタング Roi Masutangu) is a character from the Fullmetal Alchemist anime and manga series. Holding the title of the Flame Alchemist, he is a skilled State Alchemist who ambitiously strives to become the next leader of Amestris. Although he has also held the ranks of Major (in flashbacks), Lt. Colonel (episodes 3-8), Brigadier General (episodes 45-51), and Corporal (The Conqueror of Shamballa movie after resigning his commission), Mustang holds the rank of Colonel in most of the anime and manga, and so he is referred to as such here.

A powerful alchemist in his own right, Mustang wears gloves with transmutation circles on them that are made of a material called "pyrotex/ignition cloth" that create sparks or flames when he rubs his fingers together. By adjusting the oxygen densities in the surrounding atmosphere through alchemy, he can create flames anywhere in the surrounding area at will and manipulate them as he desires.

Extended Information

Despite his ambition, as the series continues Mustang decides to overthrow the State Military after his best friend, Maes Hughes, is killed by the homunculi, who are controlling the Military. Therefore, he joins forces with Edward Elric, Alphonse and his most trusted comrades to defeat the Military.

Outwardly arrogant and playfully manipulative, Mustang is intelligent and adaptable. These traits usually ensure that he is always one step ahead of his opponents. At the beginning of the series, he appears as a ruthless careerist and a shameless womanizer. However, he is eventually shown to be a rather paternal commander who greatly cares for the emotional and physical well-being of his men. This earns him the fierce loyalty of his friends especially with Riza Hawkeye as both share a closer relationship in all adaptations of Fullmetal Alchemist. He also feels obligated to look out for the Elric Brothers, though he and Ed maintain an antagonistic relationship.
