A member of a bandit group who hijacked a train headed
towards
Central City so that he could trade the safety of the
passengers on board - most notably General Haruko - for the
freedom of his group's leader. Originally a member of the
military, he desired an Automail arm to increase his power.
This use of automail for unnecessary procedure was
prohibited by the State, and Bald was discharged and became
an outlaw, seeking revenge on the military who disbarred
him. His automail arm includes two gun barrels and a small
knife blade. While hijaking the train, Bald was confronted
by Edward, who disabled his arm and defeated the bandits, an
exploit which won him permission to take the State Alchemist
entry exam. He would later resurface in "Curse of the
Crimson Elixir" inside the sewers of Eastern City, and then
"Stray Rondo" to repeat the same crime, only to be put in
jail yet again both times by the Elrics.
