Since his entire life was planned out for him and he rarely if ever got to make his own choices, Bradley takes great pride in his wife since she was the woman he chose to marry, openly expressing this to Riza. In-battle, Bradley shows relentless determination and brutality, never hesitating to deal the finishing blow and fighting with a silent but deadly aura, a reflection of the inner fury that drives him and embodies his status as Wrath. Colonel Roy Mustang at the time mistook this as a silent weep from Bradley, only to discover later in the series that Bradley was trembling due to the difficulty of restraining his immense fury. Col.'s young daughter interrupting the honored silence with protests to her mother about her father being covered with dirt, and when recounting this memory, his hands trembled in fury at the thought of Elicia's screams interrupting the silence. One instance of this fury was his trembling hands at Maes Hughes' funeral, upon hearing the Lt. Another instance of this unexpected behavior was giving a melon to Edward Elric as a gift when he and his younger brother Alphonse were in the hospital, and afterwards mischievously sneaking out a window in the Elric brothers' hospital room to escape his assistant who was looking for him.Īs pleasant as he may seem, Bradley embodies the true image of wrath when enraged. Instances of his misleading demeanor include giving full credit to Colonel Roy Mustang for killing Isaac McDougal the Freezing Alchemist, despite Bradley himself being the one fully responsible for the criminal's defeat (2009 anime only). He is perhaps the most misleading of the homunculi, appearing generally calm and surprisingly pleasant, even with a frequent sense of humor when compared to the others. Several differences are apparent in Bradley when compared to the other Homunculi, such as the ability to sympathize with humans and even show compassion despite his identity as Wrath. Sometimes a gentleman (above), other times a furious man (below). At the time of the promised day, Bradley wore a white shirt with blue pants and a beige belt to hold his hand grenade. Other times, he is seen wearing a black vest with a white dress-shirt, dress pants, and formal shoes. On occasions, he has been seen without his coat in battle, wearing his military issue slacks with suspenders and boots, along with a short-sleeve black undershirt. His uniform has a grey sash around it which he uses to carry his swords. Bradley is almost always seen with at least one sword on him, but has also been known to carry up to five and can wield all of them simultaneously. His skin tone is more of an olive complexion in the 2003 anime.īradley is usually seen to wear a blue, full length military issue coat and slacks with black dress shoes. In the 2003 anime, Bradley's design is basically the same, but due to differing art styles, he has noticeably softer features with a thinner and less stocky build. Underneath his eye patch is "The Ultimate Eye", or his regular eye with the Ouroboros mark in place of the pupil and cornea. He has a full head of black hair, with a few greying hairs and a thick black mustache, a blue tint to his right eye, and an eye patch over his left eye. In the manga and 2009 anime Bradley appears as an older man near sixty with an incredible physique for his age. As Führer, Bradley is the respected Commander-in-Chief of the State Military, even though his political standpoints are often questioned in certain instances such as the Ishval Civil War, which was only one of many insurrections focused on creating a massive Philosopher's Stone for Father. However, in the manga and 2009 anime series, he is an important character being that Amestris was created for the sole purpose of exacting Father's plan to become the ultimate being. In both series, Bradley is the leader of Amestris and is seen to have almost inhuman swordsmanship. In the manga series and the 2009 anime reboot, he was known as Wrath ( ラース, Rāsu ?), the final homunculus created by Father, but was changed in the 2003 anime to Pride ( プライド, Puraido ?), created by the ancient alchemist Dante. Bradley was also the original Führer ( 大総統, Daisōtō ?) of Amestris. Christopher Bevins (young) King Bradley ( キング・ブラッドレイ, Kingu Buraddorei ?) is one of the primary antagonists in the Fullmetal Alchemist series, being that he is one of the seven Homunculi.
