Hello, we're back!
Yep! AFTER SOOO LOOONNNGGG
That was your fault, I hope you realize.
Well SO-RY! I forgot my email password.
Whatever. Anyway, a Mysterious Illusion, our story is written so properly in grammar because we are typing from different places.
Yep! Im in Massachusetts, Bailey here is in Connecticut! So, we would email different parts of the 'story' and Bailey will review it, such as for grammar mistakes and things, and then she would publish it up!
Yep, that's how it usually works... I do most the work... Also, Valyn Iliev, Thank you for the praise, and sorry we couldn't really go into depths of the Alchemy, and that we couldn't update for a while, I had to rush over to the hospital because my mom just gave birth... I get slightly busy, but the baby is asleep now, so I have some time.
She has a really FAT baby brother. I want to pinch his cheeks! But I cant :( Not until the summer.
Yeah. Anyway, Nationality, in the world of FMA, they don't have the regular countries like here in real life, however, their countries sort of 'fills in' for them. Lets firstly talk about Amestris, the main country of the series.
I shall do it! Amestris is a strange/flipped version of Germany, and as such, you might see some people with blond hair and blue eyes, however, this necessarily doesn't mean all their citizens are blond. A large number of them have dark colored hair. But it depends where you are in Amestris, it seems like in Loir, many people have dark skin, dark hair, and dark eyes, but we don't know if that really means all the cities in the middle east have people like this, as we only see these types of people from Loir, well, except for Jerso, but we don't really know where in Amestris he was from.
If we look in Resembool, we would noticed how only a few residents actually has blond hair, and the people who has black or brown hair outnumber them greatly.
OK, so now lets cover Ishval.
They sort of look like Prussia from hetalia.
Yes, the do, only they have dark skin. Anyway, most Ishvalans has white hair and red eyes, however, their are a few who mysteriously has brownish hair. Ishvalans in the 03 Fma are usually known for their eye color, not their hair, but it seems this also applies in the 09 verse because Edward did not know Miles was an Ishvalan until he removed his dark sunglasses, same concept for Scar.
ALSO! if you have an Ishvalan oc who uses alchemy, most likely they will be shunned by their own people from turning away from the way of god. I believe Ishval is a Hebrew type of country.
My turn~ Xing! Xing would represent the Asian country, China. Based on what we see from old man Fu, Ling, Mai, and Lan fan, Xingese people have dark colored hair, as well as onyx colored eyes. The only one person who fits this and is not Xingese is Mustang, but I think he's Xingese... somewhere.
Xing's Alkahestry is a parallel to Amestris Alchemy, as it focuses more on healing people than just shaping rocks and minerals.
Japan also seems to have an influence on Xing, as most clothing seen in the show is based on Japanese culture, as well as the weapons they use.
For Drachma, It would seem that Russia is its counterpart, but, unfourtionaly, Drachma is not really seen in the Anime, Manga, or the games, the only time we see traces of Drachma is around when the Drachma soldiers try to invade Fort Briggs, and even then, we only see one Drachma man, so i am led to believe most Drachmann's would be slightly pale, have dark hair and dark eyes.
they're military uniform is black.
Aerugo is Italy! Aerugo seems to find it inappropriate to show off so much skin, as you can see in the FMA games, by Elena, but that just might be her own principle. Aerugo people usually have light auburn with deep blue eyes, and the also seem to go by royalty there.
Whoever is royal rules my land! BAHAHAH
You had sugar, didn't you? .-.
yes!
Xerxes is next, Bailey, explain.
Xerxes is based off ancient Persia (According to the wiki) and the clothes seen wearing by the people do actually seem Persian, in a way. As you know, Xerian people are usually found with golden hair and golden eyes, however your oc cannot have these traits, unless the are from Xerxes, which is nearly impossible. Xerxes is a fucking desert, noone survived except Hoenheim, and now these traits are only found in Ed and Al.
Not even Al all the way, remember the fucking original?!
THE FUCKING FIRST ANIME?!
HE HAD CHESNUT HAIR!
CHESNUT!
BROWN!
DIRT!
And motherfucking brown eyes, when in the manga, he is supposed to have blond hair and golden eyes.
Its bullshit. AL actually had blond hair as a child, that's the thing that pisses me off to no end, and then he gets brought back by the gate, all fucking fine.
HE HAD NO FOOD, I can understand the not aging part, as that is the gate of truth, but no food? He had no nutrition, no vitamins, nothing, so how is his body all healthy?!
Yo, Candy, you alright?
no. *Slams head on keyboard* esdc iiiiiisfrjgikshngiolsgnn
Aww~ Poor candy, the sweetie.
Fuck you
No need to be harsh.
