[Source] The fourth of Father's homunculi to be created, Envy was designed to cause unrest and distrust across Amestris. Nearly every major conflict was spurred on in some way by Envy, including the Ishvalan Civil War. Additionally, he worked alongside Lust on cleanup duty, evacuating Edward Elric after he found his way into the Fifth Laboratory, a condemned military facility used to create Philosopher's Stones, as well as killing its guards and demolishing the building, assassinating Lt. Maes Hughes after he discovered the homunculi's plan, attempting to recover Gluttony after he was captured by Ling Yao, and using Solf Kimblee to track down Dr. Marcoh, where he lost most of his souls to Marcoh's ability to destroy Philosopher's Stones. During the revolution, as Father's mannequin army descended on the revolutionary forces, Envy absorbed them in order to empower himself, ultimately saving the revolution from the unkillable onslaught and making him vulnerable to the Flame Alchemist's power, though he would be spared to stop the future leader's path of vengeance by his subordinates and an Ishvalan. Unable to come to terms with his enemies finding the companionship he had sought, only to consider impossible, Envy destroyed his own stone. Vortex of Souls. When Envy is targeted by detect magic or a similar effect, or contacted by any form of two-way telepathy, the caster hears the screams of every soul inside of him and must succeed a DC 22 Charisma saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. They may retry this saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending this effect early on a success. Mystically Mundane. Envy can not spend spell slots or Alchemic Stamina. Unaging. Envy does not need to eat, drink, or sleep, and does not age.
