Creator's Notes: This character are based on the Manga and would exist in the Manga and the Second Anime.
Name: Mary Thompson
Age: 31-years-old
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Birthday: 15 November, 1884
Height: 1.70m
Nationality: 3/4 Amestrian, 1/4 Ishvalan
Family:
Rosette Thompson (Mother. 57-years-old. 'Née Anderson'. Hazel eyes and medium red-brown hair. Slightly tanned skin. Amestrian, though part-Ishvalan through her ancestors, though she does not clearly display their trails.)
Timothy Thompson (Father. 60-years-old. Blue eyes and white, once black-brown, hair. Amestrian.)
Michael Thompson (Younger brother. 29-years-old. Blue eyes and short, maroon hair. Loves to collect vehicle models and can be quite emotional. Also a talented cook. 3/4 Amestrian, 1/4 Ishvalan.)
Appearance: Mary possesses eyes of a soft, hazel colour and shoulder-length, brown-black hair, with a centre parting and no fringe. It is always over her back.
She has slightly tanned skin and a flat stomach.
Mary mainly wears a shirt-collared, light blue dress with short, puffy sleeves. The dress comes in slightly at the waist. The dress flows down to her shins and is fitted to her frame.
On her feet, Mary wears white ankle socks and light brown slip-on shoes.
Over her dress, Mary wears an earth green, buttoned-up linen jacket that falls to just below her hips. It has a hood but no tail or spilt. It is also double-breasted, and has a buckled belt around the waist.
Mary has a box of chalk, for drawing Transmutation Circles, in one pocket and two photos in the other. The first photo depicts herself and her family sitting on the couch, and the second is of Roberta showing the results of her first fully successful transmutation when she was six-years-old.
Mary is a woman who prepares well for a journey and carries a suitcase around with her almost all the time. Contained inside this are clothes for herself and Roberta, designed for Amestris' diverse climates. For example there are warm clothing for the mountains in the North, and light, white/cream coloured ones for the desert in the East. Finally, there are also causal clothes, toiletries, a hairbrush and a comb.
Personally: Kind, loving, calm and cheerful, Mary is a lovely woman though she can get quite nasty if provoked. She tries not to yell at her young apprentice, Roberta Sanders, but will not hesitate give her a good telling off if she thinks she had done something wrong, such as shouting at someone for talking about how good their family is.
She strongly detests the Ishval Civil War.
She is very protective of her family and her apprentice. She will not hesitate to attack someone endangering them, even if she is outnumbered or the attacker is more powerful than she.
Most of the time, Mary has a pleasant smile on her face, and a helpful, motherly, confident air.
She liked to play the guitar at home, but her mother told her she could bring it with her, so everything she comes back for a visit, she plays it.
Though she is not a State Alchemist, and does not intend to become one, Mary sometimes calls herself "The Aqua Alchemist".
She mostly enjoys being in quite towns or the relaxing countryside.
Life Story: Since they were born, Rosette Anderson, a part-Ishvalan, and Timothy Thompson resided within a remote village in the icy cold mountains of Briggs.
Despite the location of the village, the residents still know of what was happening in the rest of Amestris, as just like the rest of the country, they received a regular newspaper. All the residents, especially children and babies, had to wear special clothes made to protect them from the cold.
Rosette and Timothy met as schoolchildren, and became good friends, forming a little gang with four other children. When Rosette reached eighteen, the two realised they were in love and began going out together. After two years of courting, Timothy finally mustered the courage to propose to Rosette, who accepted. Eight months later, they were married and 'Rosette Anderson' became 'Rosette Thompson'.
Five years later, Rosette became pregnant with their first child: Mary.
When they realised this, the Thompson couple realised they wanted to raise their children in a warmer environment. Therefore, shortly after Mary was born, the family moved to Dublith, bidding farewell to their friends and their own families, who were sad to see them go, but at the same time, pleased they were going somewhere new.
The Thompson's second child, and Mary's brother, was born in Dublith two years later. He was named Michael.
One day, a five-year-old Mary was playing with one of Michael's toy planes, outside her home, but as she running with in it her raised arm, she bumped into someone, which caused the plane to come out of her hand and 'crash' into the ground, breaking in half. Mary, knowing her parents would be annoyed if they found out she had broken one of her brother's toys, burst into tears.
The man she had run into, however, was an alchemist-in-training who was passing through the town. Seeing how upset the child was, the man drew a Transmutation Circle under the broken plane and repaired it, telling the amazed girl that it was 'magic'.
The little girl wiped away her tears, and now filled with delight, ran back inside and told her mother and father what had happened. She also apologised for breaking the plane in the first place. Rosette and Timothy forgive their daughter, as this was the first time she had misbehaved, and explained to her that that 'magic' was actually 'alchemy'. From then on, Mary admired alchemists and wanted to become an alchemist herself.
She began training in alchemy at seven-years-old. She acquired a teacher at eight, a handsome 28-year-old man called Paul S. Green who lived in a town near the Amestris/Aurego border.
As with most alchemy teachers, Green had to test Mary to see if she was worthy, and had her spend a month in the East Desert with no supplies but the clothes she wore, a knife and an insect-net. Green did not bother to forbid the girl to perform alchemy, because even if he had, it would have made no difference, as Mary only knew the very basics, which were useless in the desert. The reason for her lack of abilities was that her family possessed no alchemy books.
During her time in the desert, Mary become so thirty that she had to drink her own (purified) urine, and for food, she ate insects and lizards. However, the girl was determined to survive, and refused to lose hope, and it was due to this that she managed to survive.
She trained under Green for eleven years after that. During that time, she used her alchemy for mostly trivial things, such as cheering up Michael (who was fascinated by his sister's talents) when he was upset and helping with the housework she and her brother were given. Having never so much as glanced her, none of them had any idea that another alchemist, Izumi Harnet/Curtis, resided in the town.
Mary succeeded in becoming qualified to be a teacher of alchemy herself at the age of twenty. Roberta was her first apprentice. Mary treated Roberta like her daughter, due to the girl's affection towards her. She loved being her personal tutor and alchemy teacher. She would often invite Roberta over to her house for dinner, and Roberta became good friends with her family.
The woman does not know Roberta stole from Central Library when she was younger.
Timothy retired a year early from his humble job as a greengrocer (coincidently located in the town where Mary's teacher resided), tired of the journeys that exhausted him in his now old-age, in 1913. Due to this, Mary and Michael decided to they needed to move to a more relaxing and quiet area. With some of their parent's retirement fund, and after a week and a half of packing, the Thompson siblings moved the family to a nice little house with a back garden in the southeast countryside (not in Rizenbul). It was one of only three houses in the area. A path led to a road, which led to the busy cities straight from it.
Michael partially liked the back garden, as he could grow vegetables and flowers. Soon, he had a whole manner of vegetables and flowers, such as carrots, potatoes, white and red onions, roses and tulips grow in rows and rectangles. There was even an apple, an orange and a lemon tree in a row the end of the garden.
When Mary brought her over two weeks later, Roberta was very happy with the change and loved the fresh, home-grown vegetables they had with their meal.
When she decided to accompany Roberta for safety reasons when the girl informed her that she was leaving the orphanage, Mary had to bid a teary farewell (mostly from Michael and her mother) to her family. A saddened Michael wanted to go with his sister, but she told him that he had to stay behind and look after their parents, to which a rather disappointed Michael agreed. He became a very devoted carer, not caring the some people he met in the cities found it strange for a man in his late twenties to be still living with and looking after his parents.
The Thomsons wished Mary the best of luck on her journey and told her to give their love and regards to Roberta. She promised her mother that she would write to her and the rest of the family every so often, and she sometimes will go out of her way to keep this promise. Mary's family wait at the Thompson home, hoping they are safe.
Mary was surprised when she found out about that chimeras wandered the streets of Dublith, as, despite living there for almost her whole life, she, Michael and her parents had seen none.
She is enjoying the travelling, despite not finding Robert.
Abilities and Skills:
Mary is a highly skilled alchemist. She is adept at repairing and healing with her alchemy and uses it more as defence than attacks. She can draw Transmutation Circles at a quick speed allowing her to use her skills efficiently. She is mostly seen manipulating water, which she creates by combining some of the oxygen and trace hydrogen in the air.
Sometimes, if being attacked, Mary will drench the attacker, then freeze the water she created, therefore freezing the attacker.
She is also a good cook, but this is the one area where her younger brother surpasses her. She is quite good at drawing. She is not as skilled as a professional artist, but is still good.
Finally, Mary has very neat, flowing handwriting, another trait she passed on to Roberta, though not as good.
Extra: Mary has a talent for the guitar, and has being playing it since childhood.
She was disappointed when Rosette prevented her from taking it with when she left with her apprentice, as her mother feared she would break it. Therefore, whenever she and Roberta return to the house for a visit (they return every Christmas and sometimes during the year) Mary will entertain her family and Roberta with her guitar playing.
Even though she is not an artist, Mary's drawing skills come in very handy when she requires a visual aid, such as when Roberta became lost amid the many Guerrilla-trained soldiers of West City. Mary drew a picture of her and asked people if they had "seen this girl?" Eventually, Mary found her in an argument with a soldier, as she could not understand why they had to use such violent methods of keeping control. Mary gave the girl a good scolding that day.
