[ History ] :
Winry @ FMA wiki

[ Personality ] :
First impression of Miss Winry Rockbell is often a cute, cheerful and charming girl. She's very sweet and friendly to everyone- this includes the bad guys too, they don't seem/feel like bad guys in her eyes at first. This might be because she grew up in Resembool and her life there has been peaceful. She's a good girl from a rural town who was raised to be a polite young woman and she really wants to be that kind of good girl, so her parents could be as proud of her as she is of them. Winry seems to charm everyone around her in just little time with her kindhearted personality and genuine smile. Ed seems to be the only one who always has something bad ("Mech freak!". "Crazy gearhead!" "Do you think you look sexy with earrings..." etc.) to say to her, everyone else always say positive things. Yes, everyone.

Winry is a mechanics/machines obsessed girl and automails are her real passion. While other girls love to look pretty, smell sweet and spend their days doing girly stuff, Winry can spend nights and days working on automails and she really loves everything in it. The smell of oil, the creaking of artifical muscles, the whirring of bearings... She could go on about it all day if she wasn't a very busy engineer. Whenever she sees a cool machine, she goes into a mech otaku mode and it takes a while before she's normal again. Winry really wants to be the number one automail engineer and she works extremely hard for this goal. She's always willing to learn everything what people around her can teach about (new) mechanic stuff. She takes notes, she asks many, many questions, and she listens to every detail from other mechanics. As a mechanic she always tries to have some personal time for every customer and it's one of the reasons for why they all like her very, very much. She really shows that she cares and worries about their safety, it makes her special in Rush Valley and the people there have gone as far as demanding her to come back there. ("Only Miss Winry can do this and that", "It's not good unless it's your work." etc). Oh yeah, she actually left her grandmother alone (with her permission, of course) to a rural town to learn more about automails as an apprentice to a skilled automail engineer, Mr Garfiel. Being away from home and living in another town "on her own" for so long was all brand new to her, but she had to take the chance, when she had it. Everything was worth it, too, she really learned there a lot (she was even able to make new, lighter automails from new material for Ed), and she still keeps improving all the time.

If you happen to see Winry in Ed's company (either live or on the journals), you will probably see her fierce temper. They're not always fighting. They just fight often and they fight about little things too, they're just like an old married couple. Even Ed's scared whenever he knows that Winry will be mad because he did something stupid again, so she can be very scary when someone enrages her. Usually this side shows because Ed broke her automail again even though he's supposed to keep them in perfect condition. You may want to avoid bad manners such as stealing and walking into a girl's room in her company too, because Winry won't just let you do whatever you want. When Paninya stole a lot from the people of Rush Valley with her automails, Winry yelled at her that she should stop it - stealing is not a way to make the girl's automail mechanic proud of the girl and his work at all. And it actually worked, that girl stopped stealing stuff and started helping people instead. And when she had a bunch of strange men in her bedroom, she actually hit them all away from there with her wrench. Ed (who was eating in her room) got his part too, though she didn't toss him away from her room that time (but it has happened, especially when Ed has tried to distrac her while she's been working on his automails) Everytime people do something stupid over and over again (for example: Ed breaks her automail), Winry becomes even more enraged than last time. No, she's not going to just get used to it, because people shouldn't do those things! (Wasn't any of those previous times enough already?!) Unfortunately Ed's head is made of stone or something, as he still breaks that automail too often. Winry becomes physically stronger when she's enraged. Her rage always last for a moment, then she calms down and everything's normal again - no worries~! She's not one to hold any grudges against anyone.

Winry is very strong-willed, especially about being Edward's mechanic until he'll get his real limbs back someday. It takes an extremely strong will to stay as his mechanic, when the boy is so reckless and needs repairs too so often. But Winry has never thought about giving up on it. She made a promise, the boys are important to her and she wants to support them as much as she can. If it includes Ed being the worst nightmare of automails and making her work as hard and much as she can, then that's fine too, she can take it. She puts her heart and soul into everything she does and she's very stubborn. Winry is still keeping her promise to Ed about tears ("No tears unless they're tears of joy"), she's very strong-willed about that too. You can trust her as a great friend who keeps all promises to the good people.

Realizing she has always been in love with Ed, or that she fell for him as time passed, didn't really change much. Actually it didn't change anything. They still fight as much and loud as ever, everything is normal. Sometimes Winry wonders why she's in love with that idiot, but some of those thoughts happen when Ed's just acting weird (c'mon, who else freaks out and starts going through chemistry in the middle of a normal situation?). But even though she questions it sometimes in a somewhat frustrated manner, Winry knows exactly why she loves him, though she hasn't told him about her feelings yet and she isn't planning to tell him soon either. Not when Ed's got his brother and the whole Amestris to save. Winry can wait, and she won't even dislike waiting this time. She's got things to do too, such as baking that apple pie for the boys when they come home as whole after everything. Win trusts them to do that.

Winry hates waiting when it's the only thing she can do and she's frustrated to be the one who always has to wait. She has her moments when she just jumps into action. It's scary to just let her loved ones go and wait for them to come back, if they ever come back. It didn't help when her mind started reminding her about her parents' walking away every time Ed and Al walked away from her and she got scared. Maybe the brothers would never come back either? Winry couldn't take it. She's frustrated to be the one who always has to wait, so she has her moments when she just jumps into action. She's always worried about them both, so she's also always happy to see them both and being able to talk to them -- especially now, when they tell her things. They used to keep everything between themselves, always keeping Winry out of their secrets to protect her, but it changed. Ed even asked her opinion about What they should do now? Winry was surprised, because they've never asked her opinion before. Obviously she hasn't liked everything that they've told her, but she can take it and support them even better when she knows what they're doing and what they've been going through. When she found Ed from her room just before her arrival to the game, he told her to get out of the country with her grandmother and dog, Den. She got furious and told Ed to protect Amestris instead because she's not going anywhere from home. Winry makes a good actress when acting skills are needed, she was even able to fool a dangerous man. She can be a little devilish sometimes too but it's all for good purposes (such as getting what she wants) only.

She is the only child of two doctors, her parents died in the war of Ishval when they were trying to help people on the field. Unlike Ed and Al who also lost their parents, Winry cried for some time and then she got up on her feet again. She's had a mostly happy life, and she stayed as cheerful as ever as time passed. She understood why Ed and Al tried to bring their mother back, though she probably would have never tried bringing her parents back. Winry's got great empathy skills, she can easily recognize and share feelings experienced by other people -- she has even cried for those who can't cry or who just won't cry because they're too tough to cry. This girl used to be a huge crybaby. When she found out who killed her parents, she grabbed a gun in shock and pointed it at that person... But she couldn't shoot. She's definitely not someone who can hurt people like that and she's not a vengeful person. Ed protected her like a lion on that day and she finally cried her eyes out in his arms. Probably neither of them had realized how much the loss of her parents hurt Winry until that moment. She met the killer of her parents later and while she can't forgive him, Winry couldn't just watch him bleed to death in front of her either. Her parents saved the man's life, she wants to respect that in her own way, even if it means treating his wound etc. But she told him to "Get real" if he thinks that she can just forgive it. She even suggested a plot to get away from danger -- it just happened to include the part where that man "kidnaps" her and escapes with her. True, she didn't like the plot at all, but it was their only way and they had to do it. Of course Ed and Al didn't like it either, but she got her will through. Winry can be very determined like that too. And because her parents were doctors, she has some medical knowledge. She read a lot of their books when she was a child and possibly saw them in action because it's just a small town.... Her medical knowledge has been good for helping a woman to deliver a baby, she was the one who knew what to do and gave orders to others. She also helped her grandmother, Pinako, to save Ed's life when he lost two of his limbs -- and later Winry helped in Edward's automail surgery too! She might panic a bit when her medical knowledge is needed, but she will do her everything to help.

Winry is also a very caring person, who likes to look after people. Family is the most important to her, but everyone else come right after family. Alphonse Elric is like a little brother to her and Elicia Hughes instantly adopted her as a big sister, the little kid almost stopped her from leaving the Hughes' house. Winry was instantly - and unofficially - adopted to the whole Hughes family as soon as she met them. She'll never say no to more friends and more siblings, don't be surprised if she starts acting like a big sister, she's fast with her social skills. She befriends with most people easily and fast, then she'll get worried about everyone around her, but it's worth it. Guys might make Ed jealous, but never mind that! C:

[ Strengths/Weaknesses ] :
+ She's an excellent mechanic and it's not limited to automails only, but automails are her real passion. She's great at picking up locks too, even Ed's clock wasn't a problem to her, though Ed locked it with alchemy.
+ Strong-willed, you'll be surprised if you think she'll just give up~!
+ Empathy skills are also high, she even used to cry for people who never cry.
+ Cheerful, she always has a smile for everyone.
+ She has some medical knowledge too as she basically spent her childhood reading books from her parents' bookshelf. Her parents were doctors. Winry has even saved Ed's life with her granny and helped a woman to deliver a baby with the help of her friends. She has also helped an enemy when the enemy was hurt.
+ She becomes physically stronger when she gets angry~.
+ Ed's perfect wife-to-be! She can be very independent; she's been helping her grandmother with housework (cleaning, cooking, laundry etc) for years and her skills were put into a test whenever she was far away from home.

- She's always worried about Ed, who doesn't make it any easier with his reckless personality making Winry worry about him even more. And Al, especially now when she knows more about everything. And she worries about other people too. It doesn't make life easy and it makes her go to her own worlds often.
- Her relationships can be used against her, in fact they have been used against her and Elric brothers in canon.
- She's too kind and people use this side of her for their advantage too: Mister Kimblee and King Bradley are suspicious men? What are you talking about, Ed?! They were so nice to her.
- It's rare for Winry to show her sad side in front of people. She did get over from the death of her parents, well as much as someone can get over something like that, but talking about family might upset her.
- Her biggest fear is definitely losing Ed and Al. The brothers don't make it any easier for her because well, Ed joined the military and Al's there with him so yes, Winry is very scared for them often.
- Stealing from anyone and injuring anyone are also things that she can't do (hitting people with her wrench when they enrage her doesn't count to the word injuring~).

[ Other Important Facts ] :
She's coming with a wrench and her dog, Den.

[ Sample ] :
[It doesn't feel a very unsual morning at first. Sleeping on something uncomfy is actually pretty normal for this girl, as she falls asleep on her working desk often enough to be used to it. Den waking her up with a few kisses on her chin isn't anything unsual either, the dog is old and Winry got it when it was a little puppy.

...But her clothes feel weird and the so called bed under her doesn't feel like her working desk at all. Den licks her face even more, she's getting impatient and worried because Winry's still not reacting to anything. The girl reaches a hand to pet the dog and Den whines.]

I'm awake and I'm okay too. Sorry, I made you worry about me for a moment, Den. Geez, I didn't realize I was this tired after they left...

[Winry opens her eyes slightly. No, this place doesn't look familiar at all. Wait, what?! She sits up and she's completely awake now. This place didn't look like Amestris at all! Then again, how could she know? She had only seen some parts of it, and the country was full of alchemists.

...Did the military found her again?]

Where are we? [Winry is worried now, it's written all over her face. ...But first things first. She checks the dog. She's okay too, right? Yes, she is. Good.]

[The girl gets up on her feet and looks down in surprise. Right, she's not wearing any shoes or socks, she didn't need to wear them when she was home. She looks around again. Nothing looks familiar, no surprise there.]

[Den barks. The confused girl looks at her and the dog picks her wrench from the ground. Winry is surprised to see it, but she takes it from the dog gently.] Thanks, Den... [She pets her head again. So, maybe they can look innocent here, find someone who can tell them something and get some information... And then she could knock that person out with that tool if he or she was too scary.]

[Or she could just come up with another plan. She had Resembool's best bodyguard, Den, with her, she shouldn't be so worried. The bodyguard is currently sniffing at the ground. Winry lets a deep breath out.]

We should -- probably -- find out where we are anyway, okay? [But how should they do that? And what was that strange thing there in the middle of this place? Nevermind about that now.]

[She starts walking west, but the dog doesn't follow her immediately as she's busy doing something else. Winry claps her knees to get Den's attention.]

Come on, Den, let's go and hope we'll find someone here eventually. I guess I'll need new clothes too, but I don't have any money with me. Gosh, I wish Ed and Al were here. [No such luck. The brothers had much more important things to do in Amestris.] What is this place anyway? Maybe we'll find a way out? [Winry really doubts it, but losing hope isn't her thing either.] At least you're here with me.

[So hey, if you happen to see a worried and scared looking girl with her dog at the Plaza right now, don't be afraid to approach! She probably won't use that wrench on your head - unless you try something stupid.]
