Picture:
Alias: The Gun Achemist aka The Gun or Gun
Name: Ash Murdoch
Age: 29 years
Gender: Male
Rank: Lieutenant Colonel
Weight: 14st 7lbs (his weight if he was all flesh and bones and not with automail parts, don’t know how much extra weight they add).
Height: 6ft 3.5ins.
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Grey
Personality:
Ash is a lazy and unenthusiastic character who apparently spends much of his time asleep, but that’s only because evryone always catches him whille he’s getting abit of rest after working hard studieing or training his skills, he trains all three traits: Alchemy, Gunfighting and Automail Engineering, and that leaves him very tried most of the time!
He is not particularly interested in whatever is going on around him, although he is surprisingly observant and a capable analyst.
He initially does not seem to care a great deal for anyone, not showing any visible signs of distress or concern, in fact he doesn’t show any feelings ever, at leasted no one has ever seen him show any fellings.
It’s not that he doesn’t have any feelings it’s just that he doesn’t show them.
Unless he get's drunk, then he shows too much feelings and always overdoing it, so much so that most people that have experienced this prefure never to experience that again and let him be his careless self.
He can be serious on occasion, although his personality does not change much; he comes off as reluctant, but nonetheless willing to complete the task at hand, unless it’s deskwork or some other job he findes too uninterresting, then he’ll just get someone under him to do it instead.
Ash often forgets to respect ranks, talking to everyone just the he wants to, people have to reminde him about how it works with ranks and how to talk to people of higher rank then himself.
Physical Description:
Ash is tall and lean, has long brown wavey hair and uncaring tried grey eyes, has a bit of a goatee, automail arms and legs.
He pretty much always have his uniform on, only wearing civilian clothing when it’s innapropiat not to, mostly because he doesn’t really see a point to not wear his uniform and white gloves (mostly to cover up his automail hands), it’s just extra work to change from civilian clothing to uniform and back again, plus it let’s people know that he’s in the military without him having to tell them, though he still as to do something to let them know he’s a state alchemist.
Ash’s body is covered in burnmarks and scars from his accident in the Ishval civilwar, so he doesn’t like anyone seeing his body.
Ash usaly walks around with his hands in his puckets and hanging abit with the head often being mistaken as being down over something, but he usaly isn't.
History:
Ash’s father was a soldier and marksmen in the military and his mother was a very skilled automail engineer and mechanic.
They leved just outside of Rush Valley where Ash’s mother Amber sold her automail and his father Willam was stationed, they met when Willam lost his arm and came to Amber to get an automail prosthetic and it was love at first sight.
Ash was taught in both of his parrents traids, so he become real good at using guns and making automail, but he still dreammed of becoming a state achemist one day.
At the age of 18 he made it, he had become a state alchemist especially thanks to his special technique of preforming alchemy through his guns, given the name “The Gun Alchemist” a name that Ash findes amusing and very fitting.
He was shurtly after sent to fight the war in Ishval, where he instead of using his guns made a rifle from the same prinseble as his guns, he did this to be able to use his alchemy at an even longer distence than with his guns.
But that didn’t save him from an explotion coursed by Kimblee that cost Ash his arms and legs. Luckly his mother had been sent to war to outfit wounded soldiers with automail if needed, so she was able to give her son Ash custom made automail parts, some of her best work ever.
After the war Ash decided to never use that rifle again and hung it up in his office as a reminder of the war and vowing never to take it down to use again!
He is now a Lieutenant Colonel stationed in central and a skilled gunfighter but also a skilled automail engineer and mechanic not as good as his mother but good enought to maintain and tune his own parts.
Alchemic Power:
Ash have special made handguns, he made to preforming a special type of combat alchemy.
They have transmutation circles on them and on the bullets, that makes Ash able to preform shape changing alchemy on anything they hit (e.g. the ground or walls, he never uses the alchemical propperties of the bullets on living things!) and the handguns act as a link between him and the transmutation circles on the bullets, without them he can’t use the bullets transmutation circles.
The bullets can also act as boosters for each other, so that their alchemic output can reach a bigger potential by shooting a bigger amount of bullets into the object that Ash wishes to transmute.
Weapons and Gear: (Ash Murdoch always has these items on him)
Ash’s automail parts are north style combat automail parts, the legs have concealed carbon blades in them (just like Paninya) and his arms also have concealed blades in them that pops out by the elbows (just like Lan Fan), and they are both made of lightweight, cold-climate resisten, tempered with duralumin and a high percentage of carbon fiber.
He’s armed with two special made guns he made himself (see Alchemic Power above), and a military issued knife.
A notebook, a state alchemist silver pocketwatch, a pen, and extra ammunition clips with his special bullets (see Alchemical Power above) for his guns.
Flaws: Ash doesn’t know how to express his true feelings.
He also keeps falling asleep everytime he has to do paperwork, mostly because he’s nearly always tried from training or studieing his traits.
Ash has a hard time doing alchemy if he doesn’t have his guns, since he’s so used to doing it through them, that he’s basicly useless if he doesn’t have them.
When Ash becomes drunk he get's very emotionel.
--SAMPLE ROLEPLAY--
Ash was sitting in his office fixing his left leg after it had been dameged in combat with a mass murderer that had been killing off state alchemists, that Ash ran into last night.
The guy that had been dubbed Scar had done a real nummer on Ash’s left leg, Ash all night and all morning to fix it.
“There, finally done! Damn that guy really messed up my leg! But I finally fixed it and all before having to do any other work!” He said to himself as he looked over his desk overflowing with overdue paperwork.
“Oh looks like I have some other work after all. Hmmm gotta do something about that. Gotta find someone to do all this paperwork, but that’ll have to with till after a little nap that is!” He stated and attached his leg pulled on his pants and leaned back in his chair put his feet up on the desk closed his eyes and fell asleep right there.
