From Full Metal Alchemist d20
[edit]
Episode 3 - Mother
- Introduction to Alchemy text
- there are hills/mountains around Rizembool
- need to agree on spelling for some things, like Rizembool/Rizenpool
- there's a shot of the Rizembool train station that could serve as a map
- the war in Ishbal is going on when Ed & Al are kids, so about 8-10 years before 'present'
- Trisha Elric
- State Alchemists can use the watches like a badge
- SAs are called dogs/dogs of the military as early as post-Ishbal
[edit]
Episode 4 - A Forger's Love
- Another alchemist who doesn't work for the state: Majhal
- I should just read up on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fullmetal_Alchemist)
- also fullmetalalchemist.info (http://www.fullmetalalchemist.info/alchemy.html)
- Majhal has a wristband with an alchemic circle on it (which shines with red light): another person with a device like Roy's that lets him perform alchemy without a circle.
- Majhal notes that souls have a tendency to reject vessels unlike them in terms of soul-binding. So successful soul-binding is unusual
