I didn't know where to put it. So...
Imagine if there were a world where, with a bit of talent, you could take one thing and change it into something else. The science of alchemy allows a select few to do this. Using a symbol called a transmutation circle, alchemists can rearrange the atoms of things and change them, even fuse them with other things. The only catch: Whatever you take away, you have to give back something of equal value. That's the law of Equivalent Exchange, you cannot do alchemy without conforming to it. This means bringing someone brack from the dead is nearly impossible, all who've tried have failed and suffered greatly...
Every year, a select few are chosen to join the military and become state alchemists. Some people hate them, some respect them. Either way, these "dogs of the state" certainly have a high place in a world weighing heavily on the choices of the military.
Now, imagine if you lived in that world. What would you do? Who would you be? Here you have the opportunity to find out.
Your path is for you alone to choose. Choose well.
This role play is based on the anime Fullmetal Alchemist.

As the twilight hit, shadows began to lengthen, and the activity usually taking place within the city calmed somewhat, leaving the outskirts open for rogues such as the pair that now flitted along within the shadows. The first, a lanky human youth, looked about nervously as he passed under streetlamps, grey eyes narrowed and blinking rapidly. Beind him, a black wolf tred softly, seeming out of place in such a civilized area. She fit her master in that aspect, neither of them truly belonging, yet neither of them having a different place to be.
~*~
The homunculus perched atop a tall building, grinning crookedly as he watched the lights spring to life below him. He was alone for the moment, a rare but apparently necessary occurance, as no one else was around except for those who didn't want to keep him company anyways. He kept his silent perch on the rooftop for a while, watching as day faded into night and the sun left the horizon for better things, though what could be better he wasn't truly sure.
