On the surface, Amestris seems like an ordinary country with a happy, orderly population governed by a infamous military. Some look up to the military as if they were heroes, idols, and the saviors of Amestris, others see them as heartless monsters filled with corruption, and of course, there are the State Alchemists. Some people treat them like master alchemists, geniuses, and heroes of the Civil War, but others see them as nothing more than mindless dogs that faithfully obey the every command of their master without fail, never failing to take an innocent’s life. While the population is divided on where they stand on the military, none are aware of what the military is really after. Those who are well connected with the Elric brothers, Mustang and his squad, or even closer to the Fuhrer and the higher ups are likely to be familiar with what’s going on. They’re likely to be aware of why Ishval was destroyed, who’s really controlling the military, and they’re likely to be aware of what’s required.

In order to get what they really want, they’re in need of five human sacrifices, people that have successfully opened up the Portal of Truth, or people that could possibly be used to open it up. So far, the only confirmed candidates are the Elric brothers and their teacher, other possibilities include Colonel Mustang, Scar, Dr. Marcoh, Daniel, and several other people. Of course, most of the people mentioned are trying to do what they can to stop this. In order to do so, they need to bring the attack directly towards those pulling the strings, but it won’t be easy to convince the loyal soldiers that their Fuhrer is really their enemy, before you can that, you’ll need to get help from those you’d never think of, like the Ishvalans, the northern soldiers, among many others. Will you be successful in saving Amestris from this deadly plot?


Essentially what I’m looking for is a small group of 2-4 people to join in me a Fullmetal Alchemist RP that loosely follows the plot in Brotherhood, just with a few differences; like Mustang and Hohenheim may not be the final sacrifices, this could easily change depending on what you want to do. Besides a few aesthetic differences, it’ll largely be similar to the plot in Brotherhood, starting up sometime during the Fifth Laboratory arc. In addition to Daniel (and his sister) as I listed above (found on page 3 on my Anime OCs profile), I’ll also be adding Eliwood and Thomas (he’ll be introduced later on, as he’s still under construction), I would also like to take over the role of King Bradley, Major Armstrong, and Sloth. I don’t care about the others, but we can divy them up as needed; OCs and canons are more than welcome to join.

I don’t have too many requirements, but I need at least a paragraph per post and patience is needed when it comes to RPing with me, I could respond right away or sometimes it might be a week before I get to you. Romance is a possibility in the RP, but I’d rather it not take over the purpose of the RP. Out of my characters, only Daniel and Eliwood will be available for romance, though the latter will be unlikely. Combat will happen, and likely be frequent; and it’ll mostly be freeform, but before the battle starts, you’ll roll a 1d100, any number between 51 and 100 will result in a victory for you, now if you’re battling with another player, you’ll both roll a 1d100, and the player with a higher number will be victorious. Character death is a possibility, so be wary. Comment down below if you’d be interested in trying this with me. I’m also willing to do this 1x1 if you’d prefer, but I’d prefer a small group RP.
