Name: Greed | appealingavarice Race: Homunculus, go ahead and know it. What that is is fully explained below. World Information: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood | Canon Information
In summary, it's an earthlike alternate world at about a dieselpunk tech level, in which a magical-ish science called "alchemy" plays a major role. God is a being that calls itself "The Truth" (as well as "the world", "the universe", "God", "All", "One", and "I am also... you") and is kind of a jerk, really. A malevolent being from beyond the Gate of Truth, called Father, plans to "strike God to Earth and become a perfect being", and to the latter end he removed from himself the parts of his soul that he considered to correspond to the seven sins. Greed himself is one of these.
Issues to Be Explored: Self-deception- although he makes a big deal about never lying, he's mostly been pretty successful in pretending that his deepest desire isn't simply to have friends. Grief and guilt and the inability to protect people, because the best friends he ever had all died trying to help him, very recently, in one case at his own hand. Duality, because he's actually living in the body of a human named Ling Yao of whom he is incredibly fond. And free will, because he was recently memory-wiped and forced back into the service of his Father, hence killing that last one of his people as I mentioned. Also, though he himself doesn't have an issue with it, his creation involved a Philosopher's Stone, which in this world is made of countless stolen souls and is a horrible thing and because of it his psychic presence has been described as "sickening". Religious Affiliation: lolnope. Plot: He's pretty much just making friends, and finding it extremely difficult to call them friends rather than "possessions". Stipulations: Most of it, sure, but I'd rather be consulted before his dead friends come up and especially the one he killed himself. Tagging: All right with me.
