[QUOTE="Dragonblade, post: 4056765, member: 2804"] There are no Warforged in Full Metal Alchemist. They do have Auto-Mail which is sort of the fantasy equivalent of cybernetic prosthetics. The walking suit of armor is actually a unique character in the story. Its been a long time since I have seen the show, but one of the main character's bodies was destroyed in a failed attempt to resurrect his deceased mother using forbidden alchemy (the series version of magic). Before his soul could depart the mortal realm, his older brother used his alchemy to bond the soul to a suit of armor. The older brother's arm and leg were also destroyed in the accident and replaced by Auto-Mail. Since he has metal prosthetics, he is nicknamed the Full Metal Alchemist (hence the series name). The series is basically about the two brothers going on this quest together to restore the body of the younger brother and to restore the destroyed limbs of the older brother. Later on the brothers realize that their attempt to resurrect their mother allowed evil beings to enter the world from the underworld. So they try to stop them as well. I'm sure I got some details wrong. I haven't watched the show in a long time and I never saw the whole series. My wife was a bigger fan than me. I'm more of a Naruto/Bleach fan myself. :) [/QUOTE]
