King Bradley is the king of Amestris, unquestionable in his authority and unmatched in his swordsmanship. However, in every timeline he is only a tool for the true mastermind to exert their will over the entire country.
In the true timeline, Candidate #12 was chosen from a group of dozens of candidates to bear the final Philosopher's Stone created by Father. Every element of his life as Fuhrer King Bradley was fabricated for him by Father's system, save for his wife. Waging war after war, etching bloody battlegrounds across the nation's massive transmutation circle, he earned his namesake as the human-homunculus Wrath. In the end, it took another nameless warrior to finally put him down during the revolution against his entire regime. Vortex of Souls. When Bradley 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. Bradley can not spend spell slots or Alchemic Stamina.
In the 2003 timeline, Bradley was the only of Dante's homunculi not created as a result of failed human transmutation. Instead, he was built from the ground up as her "ultimate creation"; a homunculi that could act and age like any human while retaining their regeneration. Manipulating the country to create dozens of Philosopher's Stones alongside his "secretary" Juliet Douglas, his kingship was marked by massive, bloody conflicts. In order to maintain their secret, Bradley accompanied Lt. Hughes to rescue Edward and Alphonse Elric from the Fifth Laboratory, where Greed was secretly being held. However, when Greed escaped and Bradley hunted him down, he was captured by one of Greed's chimera allies, who discovered his inability to die and was able to spread the word to Edward and Alphonse before her death. Connecting Hughes' death at the hands of Envy to Pride, Mustang challenged Pride to a one-on-one fight in the Fuhrer's Estate. Mustang's plan came to a head when Bradley's son retrieved the skull of his father's original body, believing it to be important amid the house fire, weakening the king long enough to kill him. Regeneration (1 Soul Point). As a bonus action, Pride regains 7 (1d8 + 3) hit points. Pride may spend 2 soul points to use Regeneration as a reaction, or 3 soul points to use it as a free action or when he is reduced to 0 hit points. Vortex of Souls. When Bradley 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. Bradley can not spend spell slots or Alchemic Stamina. |
