This plan entails the use of 'human sacrifices' to open the gate, alchemists of notable skill, with those who have 'opened the gate' before (Elric Brothers, Van Hohenheim, Izumi Curtis, and Roy Mustang) as 'confirmed sacrifices. Parting ways, the Homunculus became the legendary Eastern Sage who taught the country of Amestris alchemy in for the sake of his master plan, engineering every war in the country's history, to bring it into the form of a perfect circle with sites of bloody carnage at all the cardinal points-the necessary configuration for the transmutation of another Philosopher's Stone.įather's "goal" appears to be to create the perfect Philosopher's Stone and the Gate, by using all of the citizens of Amestris. Soon after, the Homunculus uses the stone within it to creates a new body for himself and another for Hohenheim, each new body holding half million souls. After the alchemical process occurred, it was revealed that Homunculus had deceived the king as it intended itself to receive it while sacrificing Hohenheim's body to the gate. īut things changed when the Homunculus told the King of Xerxes the secret to immortality would cost the lives of everyone within the empire and gained his blessing to create a Nationwide Transmutation Circle with an inner circle to keep whoever's in it safe while allowing them to absorb the countless lives made into a philosopher's stone. With the former raising in Xerxes' social hierarchy, Hohenheim and Homunculus had a friendly relationship and were together for awhile Homunculus identified Hohenheim as being 'like his father,' since it was from Hohenheim's blood that he took life. Confined within a flask, the Homunculus formed an attachment to the young slave boy whose blood had been used in his creation, naming him Hohenheim and teaching him alchemy, the knowledge of which was viewed by the boy as freedom. The character Father was originally a "Homunculus" whose creation was commissioned by the king of Xerxes was to obtain knowledge from beyond the Gate of Truth in order to find a means to cheat death. In this respect, very little has changed between the tiny Homunculus of 400 years before and Father as he is depicted in the present time Father is planning a very similar transmutation with the whole of Amestris as an array, and just as before, cares not for the countless innocent people that would die in order for his goals to be reached. In his original form as Homunculus, he was able to deftly manipulate the King of Xerxes into crafting the massive transmutation array under the false promise of immortality, and had no sympathy for the thousands of lives that were sacrificed during the alchemical reaction. During the transmutation that destroyed Xerxes, Father fashioned his body using Hohenheim's blood as data once more, thus resulting in their near-exact likeness. Hohenheim's blood (then slave 23) was used in the experiment that initially created Father (then simply Homunculus), thus Father holds Hohenheim in high regard as his "blood kin" for having genetically fathered him. It is revealed in a series of flashbacks that Father used to be a mere black speck with one eye and a set of teeth confined within a scientific flask, created four centuries before the start of the main plotline. ![]() In appearance, Father greatly resembles Hohenheim, Edward and Alphonse Elric's father. ![]() In fact, the series' protagonist, Edward Elric, postulates that Father masterminded the creation of the State for the express purpose of bringing his plans to fruition. Not much is known about Father other than he manipulates the governing body of Amestris. This is believed by Hohenheim to be his attempt at creating a family. In fact, Father went so far as to reabsorb Gluttony and recreate him with all his original memories intact, after Gluttony's Stone was nearly depleted. ![]() Father is shown to be rather protective of the Homunculi made of his own flesh, Father regards these creations as his own children. However, Father was quick to dismiss and order the death of Lin before he reconsidered the use of this "valuable human resource". When Edward and Alphonse Elric first meet Father, he was shown to have treated their wounds and even engage them in conversation. ![]() In the series, Father is depicted as a calculating and remorseless figure whose preference is to exploit "useful" people to further his own goals, while disregarding those who serve absolutely no purpose.
