FMA question...

Post by Sugarflower »

I have a question about the Homunculus. So in case no one has seen the
series, plans to, or is currently watching I will use spoiler tags for my
questions.

I just finished watching the series today and topped it off with watching the
movie. So I want to know...
Was it ever revealed who created King Bradley and Gluttony? I
understand who and how the other Homunculus (Homunculi?) were created
and by whom, but I may have not paid attention to how King Bradley and
Gluttony came to be.

Was it revealed and if so did the anime series reveal it or the manga?

Hi Sugarflower! I have seen the whole FMA series (In English) and they never told how King Bradley and Gluttony were created. Now that you mentioned that I'm curious as well! ^_^ I never really thought that much about how those two were created. Now I want to know too! ^_^

I haven't seen the movie, but I might be able to go see it in theaters! ^_^

I forgot to mention that I have volumes 1, 3, and 4 of the manga. Yeah I know, I need number 2! I just got them out of order because #3 came with a card and #4 limited edition, came with and Ed or an Al figure (I actualy have both! ^_^). Anyway, I still haven't read them so I don't know if their creation is explained in the manga.

Well, I found the info out for myself on Wikipedia. But if anyone has more depth to the mystery then please add to this:

For the anime:
Name of Homunculus - Created By - (Reason) - Sacrifice required

* Envy - Hohenheim of Light - (To resurrect his and Dante's dead son) - Unknown
* Greed - Dante - (unknown, suggested as result of curiosity or in attempt to resurect a former lover.) - Unknown
* Gluttony - Dante (unknown, implied by Hohenheim to be a living forge for Philosopher's Stone) - Unknown
* Pride - Dante - (To have someone run the government and work as a spy for her) - Unknown
* Lust - Scar's elder brother - (To resurrect his lost lover) - Reproductive organs
* Wrath - Izumi Curtis - (To resurrect her dead child) - All organs in the abdominal cavity
* Sloth - Edward and Alphonse Elric - (To resurrect their dead mother) - Alphonse's entire body and Edward's left leg and right arm.
For the manga:
Name of Homunculus - All created by Father (Reason)

* Pride (Unknown, though, like the Pride in the anime, he acts as a "Lieutenant" for the Homonculi.)
* Lust (To gather information)
* Greed 1
* Envy (As a way of gathering information and eliminating obstructions without suspicion)
* Sloth (Unknown task)
* Gluttony (Failed attempt to recreate the Gate)
* Wrath (To act as head of state keeping State alchemists and the people in check)
* Greed 2 (To replace the original Greed)

(It is presumed that a second Gluttony will be created, but a second Lust's creation is unknown. If a new Lust is created, she would likely be different from the original in both appearance and powers due to the destruction of the original's Philosopher's Stone)
