Trenchcoat-wearing, dark-haired anime anti-heroes who are considered some of the most dangerous men in their worlds for their incredible strategic minds and ability to use the main special powers of their franchises, Alchemy and Magic respectively. Both have had their signature abilities passed down to them by someone else, with Mustang's Flame Alchemy being taught to him by Berthold Hawkeye and Kiritsugu's Innate Time Control and Dual Origins being passed down his family line. These abilities have earned them nicknames based around what their powers can do, with Roy being called "The Flame Alchemist" thanks to his fire-based alchemy, and Kiritsugu being called "The Magus Killer", thanks to his Origin Rounds' ability to destroy the magic circuits of anyone they hit. Despite appearing to be uncaring most of the time, they do have a good side to them, and wish to protect those close to them through any means necessary. Both also have young women who possess incredible skill with firearms devoted to them thanks to something they did to help them in the past, Riza Hawkeye for Mustang and Maya for Kiritsugu. While Roy works for the government and wishes to take it over, Kiritsugu is a freelance assassin who works for whoever pays him, and while Roy relies mostly on his alchemy, and only uses normal weapons when he can't fight with alchemy, Kiritsugu fights mainly with firearms, using his magic as support for his weapons.
