Alphonse Elric was but an innocent young child when a
tragic chain of events changed his life forever. First, his
father mysteriously vanished while Al was too young to
remember. Then, after battling a terrible illness, Al’s mother
succumbed to death. Finally, during a horrific accident
performing forbidden Alchemy, Al’s body was sealed inside
a suit of armor. Undaunted and unashamed by all that
has happened in his short life, Al carries on, eternally
supporting his older brother, Edward, in his search for the
Philosopher’s Stone, a legendary gem with the power to
restore Al’s body and Edward’s lost limbs. Al knows that
he and his brother’s actions were wrong. He only wishes
for the chance to make things right.
