And, of course, there were also mighty Homunculus hiding in the shadows. But don't forget, there is one military man who has a lot of fans, namely Roy Mustang.

Edward and Alphonse Elric are the main protagonists of this series which was adapted into a live-action film and aired on Netflix. Ed and Al are on an adventure in an attempt to restore their shattered bodies. One of their greatest allies is Colonel Roy Mustang, a soldier and alchemist who uses fire to fight his enemies without hesitation. He aims to become the ruler of Amestris one day, and he is a strong man with a determination to pursue his ambitions. But he also has a soft side. What is there to know about the Roy Mustang? find out here!

1. He Needs Pawns For His Ambition

Roy Mustang is not a person who likes to act alone. In order to quickly rise through the ranks and fulfill his ambition to become the new president of Amestris, he is surrounded by agents who are loyal and ready to help, unlike Greed the Homunculus.

the chief among Roy's trusted pawns is Riza Hawkeye, but Roy also counts on Jean Havoc, Falman, Furey, and Breda. So, to anticipate Roy, Wrath aka King Bradley spread Roy's pawns to the 4 corners of Amestris. The real reason for relocating all the military figures was so as not to be able to support Roy effectively.

2. He and Edward are Quite Similar in Nature 

In many ways, Roy Mustang is actually the opposite of Edward Elric. Both interfere with each other and try to sabotage each other's authority or plans, and they often fight more than once.

But it just shows how similar they are, and each of them is trying to fix the nation from within the military. The two of them are also stubborn people who have the most valuable friends and they will risk their lives to protect that friend. Edward has Winry, and Roy has Riza Hawkeye.

3. He Delegate Differame Flame Alchemy to Each Hand

Among the country's alchemists, Roy Mustang was an extremely formidable alchemist and his reputation had spread far and wide. He can deliver powerful fireball attacks and can strike targets with great precision if he has to.

Roy can also deliver powerhouse attacks with his right hand, and his left hand is used for attacks with higher and smaller accuracy. Envy learns this the hard way when he duels Roy on the promised day where Roy's right-hand triggers a violent explosion and his left hand vaporizes Envy's eyes.

4. His Blindness Was Predicted by Lust

Roy Mustang is the first character to kill a Homunculus in the series, and he sends a series of fatal explosions at Lust who enjoys stabbing her victims. But, as Lust crumbles to dust, she comments that Roy's eyes, so clear with his ambition, will soon be shrouded in agony.

And Lust was right. When Roy is forced to open the Gate of Truth later on, he pays for the truth not with his hands or feet, but with his eyesight. He had a clear vision of his very noble goal. And finally, on Promised Day, he suffers greatly when the criminals get what they want.

5. His Name is Inspired by World War II Fighter Planes

Manga creator Hiromu Arakawa put a lot of effort into researching many aspects of the Full Metal Alchemist series, including the names of the characters. In this case, "Roy" sounds like a French word meaning "king," and, indeed, this Colonel aims to rule the country someday.

Meanwhile, "Mustang" comes from the P-51 Mustang fighter in the World War II era, one of the most fearsome and prominent fighter aircraft of its time.

6. He Sometimes Seems Silly Despite His Stiff Attitude

In the Full Metal Alchemist series, we will have some very serious characters like Riza Hawkeye and King Bradley, and we will also get very funny characters like Alex Armstrong, Prince Ling, and the Elric brothers.

Roy Mustang often scolded others for playing games, especially with Maes Hughes, but Roy also often acted silly. Roy can be quite silly when he overreacts to Maes' taunts, and Roy's loud outbursts of defiance by the Elric brothers are also quite funny. Roy's most ridiculous moment occurred when Elric and Hawkeye had to stuff Roy into a car and get him off the battlefield despite his protests.
