Edward Elric is the main protagonist in the Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood anime series and the youngest State Alchemist in history at the age of just 12. At a very young age, his father, Van Hohenheim, left the family to go on to research on his own. Edward lost his left leg while resurrecting his dead mother by alchemy, which he failed.

Later, he went on a journey with his brother to find the Philosopher's Stone to bring back his brother's body and his lost body parts. Edward is 149 cm (4”11) inches tall, which is short in terms of males, which is why most people who meet him call him short, which makes him angry all the time.

He is among the strongest alchemists in the series and the youngest.
