Fullmetal Alchemist Anime Info

Character Bios: Winry Rockbell

Edward and Alphonse's closest childhood friend. She is exceptionally skilled in making automail, but also has a short temper, similar to Edward's. She occasionally pops up in the series as Edward's mechanic, repairing it when it becomes damaged.

There was also one case mentioned briefly in the series, in which Edward and Alphonse once argued as children as to which one would marry Winry. As a result, there are rumors of a romantic air when it comes to Edward and Winry.

------

Ed and Al's childhood friend. They performed their first alchemic transmutation to create her a doll, but she becomes terrified by the transmutation process, which foreshadows both the amazing and horrible aspects of alchemy. She's a self-professed "gearhead" who helped her grandmother Pinako build Ed's "automail" machine limbs. She sometimes travels with the Elric Brothers to maintain Ed's artificial leg and arm. Her parents were doctors who were killed during the Ishbal War by Roy Mustang under Basque Gran's orders because they treated the enemy as well as Amestris soldiers. (In the manga version, Scar was the man that killed Winry's parents, not Mustang.) Winry helped out when the Thules attacked. But in the end, she begins doing her own Automail research, no longer worrying about the Elrics like she usually does, as she is sure they're all right.
