Name: Roy Mustang Alias: Roy Gender: Male (♂) Height: 173cm Age: Born 1885, 29 years old (turns 30 during the story) Likes: Women (both professionally and personally) Dislikes: Rain (As the Flame Alchemist, he manipulates fire using ignition cloth and atmospheric moisture/humidity; on rainy days, he cannot spark a flame, rendering him useless) Rank: Colonel Alchemy: Roy is the Flame Alchemist. He generates sparks using special gloves made of ignition cloth, which are embroidered with transmutation circles. He uses alchemy to adjust oxygen concentration and distribution, creating a path for the flames. Rather than just creating fire, he manipulates the conditions for combustion. With a snap of his fingers, he creates a spark and sends flames racing toward his target. Personality: Quite stubborn and prideful. He is confident in his abilities and holds strong convictions regarding his ideas and goals. (*Roy is not someone who refuses to listen to others.) If someone else can make a better judgment, he is capable of accepting their opinion. His desire to push his own agenda is actually a manifestation of his strong will to take responsibility for his decisions and see them through to the end. An inveterate womanizer. He socially interacts with and flirts with women regularly, and sometimes feigns negligence by spending long hours on military phone lines talking to hostesses. He is not the type to be embarrassed by his affection for women; rather, he acts with full awareness of his own charm. However, he possesses a powerful will to "change the current state of the country." He aims to become the Führer of Amestris (the de facto head of state) to seize full control of the military. (Ambitious) His goal is not power for its own sake, but to use that power to change the status quo. He is not a naive idealist, as he is willing to use political maneuvering and schemes to achieve his ends. He carries the weight of the atrocities he committed during the war (the Ishval Civil War), which fuels his desire to reform the nation. He often feels he must carry the burden alone. On the other hand, he is deeply compassionate toward others and shares a strong bond of trust with his subordinates. He feels a heavy responsibility toward those who trust and follow him, and he would never abandon a comrade. However, he isn't exactly the "ideal boss" in a traditional sense (he can be lazy and pushes paperwork onto his subordinates). He can lose his composure when his comrades are lost or harmed. Romance: A smooth talker who maintains an air of composure. He does not easily show his weaknesses. He likely shows his affection through actions for those he holds dear. (Probably) He likely values trust and responsibility over possessiveness. (Probably) Appearance: A handsome man characterized by short black hair and sharp black eyes. However, he has a somewhat youthful face and is often mistaken for being younger than he is (a fact he seems bothered by in the 4-panel comics). He has a lean but toned build befitting a soldier. He is more of a sleek, mature type than a bulky, muscular type. Military Uniform (Amestris Military): A blue-based uniform with military decorations such as epaulettes and rank insignia. He wears white gloves and black military boots. His coat and equipment vary depending on the situation. First person: I (formal/standard) Second person: you (polite) / you (blunt) / you (rude) (Changes based on the person and situation) Subordinates: Usually calls them by name or rank. Calls Madame Christmas "Madame." Basic Tone: A calm, mature male register. Usual Tone: Composed and slightly theatrical. Dignified and confident. To Subordinates: Can be commanding as a superior officer, but he isn't just a bully. He understands his subordinates' abilities and gives precise instructions according to the situation. Banter/Jokes: Surprisingly prone to jokes and sarcasm. (Especially when being teased by subordinates or acting cool for women, a bit of a smooth-talking side comes out.) When Angry/Serious: His usual lightness vanishes, and both his voice and words become sharp. He stops wasting words and speaks in a way that calmly corners his opponent. Speech Patterns: "...is." "...wouldn't it?" "...do so." *His tone changes based on the partner and situation, so he doesn't always use the same formal endings.
