Amelia Jones, a 16 year old, has been wandering through Amestris with an agenda; to find out how her uncle was killed.
At the young age of 8, Amelia was taken in by her uncle and aunt, Josh and Anna Jones. Two years later, her uncle was killed working a case in Central. Her aunt followed from an illness a few months later, leaving Amelia an orphan.
Through her uncle's study, she discovered Alchemy, both her beginning and end. She attempted human transmutation and as payment for her foolishness, Truth took both of her arms.
Thanks to the Rockbells, Amelia was outfitted with two automail arms and could once again fight for the life she wanted as well as answers.
I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist, only my OC. If you have suggestions, let me know! :))

Murmurs of the Soul || Edward Elric x Reader
Years after your father had been deployed for the Ishvalan War of Extermination, a grave illness overturned your life. With little other option in reach, you took your fate into your own hands and turned to medical alchemy as the cure. You eventually succeeded -- but perhaps not as completely as you thought. You're soon hurriedly relocated to live in the far reaches of Fort Briggs. There, you continue to study and hone your skills to repay those who've helped you regain your footing. But despite your efforts to ground yourself in Briggs, one thought continues to plague you: A red stone, seeping into your hazed memories on the night of your transmutation. After much convincing, General Armstrong grants you permission to pursue its secrets. Along your travels you encounter a strange pair of brothers who claim to search for the same stone, and while finding solace in their company is unexpected, it's welcome. With them at your side, the truths you uncover won't whittle down your resolve. ╔═════════•●•═════════╗ Edward Elric x Reader Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist or its characters!

IF YOU WISH TO READ THIS STORY IN ITS ORIGINAL, SAFE FORM, PLEASE GO TO WATTPAD * Unlike others around her, Arisa Lee was special. She was different, a child of darkness shunned by society because of her special ability, her power of alchemy. She chose a life of isolation when she grew because of that, and for a job that needed her to keep her identity and very existence a secret. And she loved it. A moment of recklessness and a dangerous mistake turns her life upside down though, throwing her into a world where alchemy is nothing uncommon. She is quickly surrounded by things she never expected to have existed - State Alchemists, Homunculi and the Philosopher Stone - though is quick to adapt and begin her journey to look for a way back home. While she meets many she comes to care for on her journey, she also meets with trouble, especially from a sadistic Homunculus who cannot leave her alone for more reasons than one. It is a test of time, emotions, bonds and secrets that Arisa must face on her journey, to protect those she wants to protect and achieve what she wants to achieve. But perhaps there is much more at stake and to be considered during her search for a way home - secrets, revelations, wishes and perhaps even love. ~~~~~~~~~~ Fullmetal Alchemist and all its franchise (C) Hiromu Arakawa KDrama Healer and all its franchise (C) Song Ji-Na OC and creative plot (C) Midnight_LilacComplete
The Silent Alchemist | FMA
Serena never asked for much. She never asked for a more luxurious house or fancy clothes. She never asked for her parents to come back after they left her and her older sister for some unknown reason. All she wanted was to live happily with her sister. But when her sister is ripped away from her, all Serena asks for is to talk to her one more time. But that was asking for far too much, so much so that it costs her the ability to speak with anyone. *I do not own "Fullmetal Alchemist", I only one my characters and plots* *This story will follow the Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood anime* *Updates on Tuesdays* •January 7, 2025 ~ Ongoing• ~Rankings~ 1st in #fullmetalalchemist - 7/4/2025 1st in #fullmetal - 8/5/2025
