Some time later, and living near Dublith, in a large house within the forest, she became a teacher to the Izumi Curtis, who eventually left her because she felt that confined there with her, she could not use her alchemy for the good of the people. He used it to rule the country, from the position of Fuhrer: King Bradley, with the real name of Wrath. This homunculus is the only one he fails to dominate, due to his proverbial greed and desire for power.Įxperimenting with human alchemy, he managed to give rise to a special type of homunculus, which could age at the same rate as humans. Since then she began to seek and train homunculi, which she used to locate the Stone, or someone who created it, as well as to capture Hohenheim.Īlthough the moment is unknown, it is known that she tried to resurrect someone very dear to her, but did not achieve success, creating Greed. However at some point they grew apart and he abandoned her. Thanks to the power of this substance, both were migrating their respective souls to new bodies, thus being able to live forever, as she wished. She is a powerful alchemist who fell in love with Hohenheim of Light when she was young, and together with him created the Philosopher's Stone for the first time. History Animeĭante is over 400 years old when the story begins. It represents a fixation on the volatile principle in alchemy, as compared to the endless cycle, represented by the Ouroboros. It is significant that the symbol is the opposite of the Ouroboros used by the homunculi. He uses the symbol of a serpent with fixed wings on a cross (called Flamel), which he transmits to Izumi, and then to the Elric brothers. She also possesses other abilities that go beyond normal alchemy: she is capable of summoning the Children of the Gate, transforming Gluttony from a childish fool into a ravenous monster, and splitting Hohenheim's mind, soul, and body before to send it to the door. Although she has never created a Philosopher's Stone herself, it is not because she lacks the skill or knowledge, but because of fear of the consequences. Like Hohenheim, Ed, and Izumi (and later Al) you can transmute without a circle, completing complex transmutations simply by clapping your hands.

Dante is an incredibly skilled alchemist.

Dante does not care about world politics and wars mean nothing to her, who has control of Amestris through Pride, and uses the entire country as a tool to obtain the Stone. Dante presents a misanthropic view of the world, believing that most human beings are "selfish, ignorant creatures, unworthy of the knowledge of alchemy and the philosopher's stone." As such, she has no qualms about starting wars or taking countless lives, as she is convinced that she ultimately protects humanity for herself. In his long years as a parasitic soul, moving from body to body, his personality seems to have changed a lot: when Hohenheim was dying after creating the philosopher's stone he ran to save him, but now he cares little for the lives of others, believing that the that in order to preserve their life to be martyrs is "necessary". She is manipulative, with a devious and vindictive purpose. Dante's personality and his motivation are very enigmatic.
