Theme - Fullmetal Alchemist

Theme Description

The setting for this world of alchemy and intrigue is a land called Amestris, the countries of focus something akin to Eurasia during Earth/Europe's early 1900s. Practices from the founding religions of the world have long passed, 400 years since the last usage of the A.D. affix. Technology here is not complicated, mainly based off of steampower and electricity. Perhaps the most advanced technology in this world is the creation and usage of "automail," which is a prosthetic metal limb. Alchemy is this world's magic, those finding themselves talented with the ability to understand these ways either employing their powers for good, or, as can be expected, for evil. Although it involves science and many of the aspects of alchemy's historical foundations, performance of transmutations seem more magical if not supernatural in nature. Alchemy has become an important part in the people's everyday lives as well as within the military. The power of the National Army spreads over the main cities, keeping a wary eye out for signs of trouble. The military is renowned for their alchemists, State Alchemists by title, whom use their abilities for research, for teaching, and for preventing if not dealing with war. Of course, there's always the probability that those with power both in authority and by nature will abuse it.
