Born around the Winter of 1899 to Van Hohenhiem and Trisha Elric. Later Edwards family would grow with his younger brother Alphonse only a year later. In his younger years his life was happy and joyful until the departure of his father. Though after this Ed and his brother had taken a kin interest into alchemy and were quite talented in the art but the sole purpose was to keep there mother happy. Though growing up Ed did not have many other friends besides for Alphonse and Winry Rockbell. But later on in 1904 a illness had began to spread throughout Resembol and Trisha had come down with it eventually succumbing to it leaving Ed and Al orphaned. Through there mothers death Ed declared that they would bring there mother back no matter what. In the following years Ed and Al occupied there home alone and study alchemy but they had visited Winry and Pinako to eat. But they both knew there was only so much they could learn by themselves so they sought out a teacher, and during a major flood they went down to help when the met Izumi Curtis. They pleaded her to teach them but she gave in upon learning they had no parents. Though they would become her apprentices if they passed a preliminary test, they were to survive on Yock Island for a full month on there own and no alchemy and give a correct explanation of what "One is all and All is one." or they would be denied as her apprentices. With the threat of starvation and multiple attacks by a Masked Man on the island Ed figured out the meaning and once Izumi came back he explained to her what 'One is all and All is one'. The next five months they received martial arts and alchemy training. growing significantly in both mind and body and gaining a great deal of alchemical knowledge before returning to Resembool. Though instructed specifically by Izumi to understand that death is an irreversible part of the flow of the world and that acceptance of such is important to the "One is All, All is One" concept. Upon returning home the boys perused there goal of bringing there mother back but this had gravely consequences on both of them. Ed and Al were both taken into the gate but Al had his whole body taken into the gate, where as Ed had only lost his left leg, through the pain Ed quickly grabbed a suit of armor nearby and sacrificed his own right arm. Al quickly took Ed to the Rockbells home for help. But the boys had created something it just was not human and that and loosing his arm and leg and thrown Ed into a depression. But soon he was approached by Lt. Colonel Mustang hoping he would join the State military much to Pinakos dismay. But Ed just sat there and this caused Roy to lash out and yell at him about what they created and told him that the only way to get there bodies back was through the military where he would have more resources at hand. This re ignited the spark in Ed and he wanted Winry and Granny Pinako to fit him with automail limbs and recover within a year. In the fall of 1911 Ed now fitted with automail limbs travled to Central to apply for his state certification. After passing the written examination and psychological evaluation, Edward astounded all the officials present, even amazing the Führer, King Bradley. Upon passing his examination he he was issued his license and the symbolic title of "Fullmetal Alchemist". On October 3 the Elrics returned to there home, Ed packed his things up and then burnt down the home so they would have nothing to turn back to, but there was a deeper meaning behind this. In the next three years Ed quickly became a legend among the people, he exposed a fake clergyman in Reole, swindled a greedy man out his business and mines and gave them to the people. They then meet Shou Tucker who they take a liking to as well as his daughter Nina but then after a couple of days Shou turns his daughter into a Chimera and Ed lashes out and repeatedly punches him in the face for saying that he and Ed are alike. Though through guilt and sadness for Nina Ed would never be able to turn her back which hurt him a lot. But what hurt him more was when he found out she had died along with Shou. But soon Ed is confronted by a strong foe named Scar he damages both Ed and Al to the point where Ed needs to return home for repairs. During this the boy get a lead on the Philosophers Stone through Tim Marcoh. Upon returning to Central he and Al try to find the information that Marchoh had given them. The Elrics also learn about the true ingredient for a Philosphers Stone and are now put at another roadblock, but he also got more leads from Labratory 5 but not before it collapsed. They then head to Dublith and make a pit-stop at Rush Valley. But while in Dublith Izumi figures out that Ed and Al had peformed Human Transmutation and dismisses them as her students, but Sig told them that now they can talk to Izumi as equals which leads them back to there former teacher asking for more information. Soon they ecounter a homunculus named Greed and a battle ensues. But on another journey the two head back to Central unaware of there friend Col. Maes Hughes death. But during this small period of time they meet Ling who is from Xing and his body guards. Ed is now unsure of what they will do now, but he knows one thing for certain they will find another clue and the journey will continue to get there bodies back to normal.
