Personallity:
Edward Elric, the older of the two brothers, is charactaristically short (And sensitive about it).
But following the principles of equvalent trade, what he loses in height,
he gains in his abilities as an alchemist. Edward becomes the youngest
state alchemist in history, a prodigal genius.
As all state alchemists have, he is given a codename, Full Metal Alchemist,
rooting from his auto-mail (artificial metal) arm and leg.
In order to recover his original body, along with his brother, he travels
to find the philosopher's stone.

Quotes
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT!?!?!"
Hughes is delivering a message from Mustang
Hughes: He said: "Don't die under my command, you're enough of a pain without with the paperwork." *Shrugs* That was it.
Ed: Tell him, "Fine... there's-no-way-I'm-dying-before-you-do, you-morally-bankrupt-Colonol-with-a-god-complex".
"Alchemists be thou for the people."
"It's been a long time since I killed someone. Wanna watch?"
Al: So what's your strategy?
Ed: (with an evil grin) I already told you; a fist in his face!
"At least we're alive..."
Ed has taken off Al's head and shows Al's anchoring point to Armstrong
Armstrong: It looks like that was drawn with blood.
Ed: Yeah, that's my blood. I was in kind of a hurry.
tears streaming down his face, Armstrong gets up and makes a dramatic pose,
sparkles appearing around him
Armstrong: Awe-inspiring! Such a bond! Such a display of brotherly love!
Ed: (interrupting) Back up, Major Spazz ... You're really getting in the way of the work here.
The sparkles around Armstrong fall to the ground
Pinako: Normally even full grown adults scream at the pain of connecting each individual nerve...
Ed: This pain is nothing... No matter how bad it is, it's nothing compared to his... Screen cuts to Alphonse, sitting outside
Ed: "Look closely, Rose. This is the body of one who delved into human transmutaion,
which is gods right. (Takes off coat) The sinners body."
Rosa: "You broke the most forbidden taboo! Your body was taken to the other side!"
Alphonse: "That is why his title is the Fullmetal Alchemist!"
"Al and are nobodys puppets, not the States', and definately not yours!"
