Winry Rockbell

About Rockbell, Winry

Birthplace: Resembool Birth date: 1899 Age: 15-16 (around 18 by series end) Family: Pinako Rockbell (grandmother), Urey Rockbell (father, deceased), Sara Rockbell (mother, deceased) Affiliations: Rockbell Automail, Atelier Garfiel Occupation: Automail mechanic Winry grew up in Resembool alongside Edward and Alphonse Elric, making her one of the few people who knew them before everything went wrong. She's best known for her skill as an automail specialist—basically the only person Ed really trusts to maintain his prosthetic arm and leg. Fans often note that she takes her work seriously, treating each repair like it matters, which it does given how much Ed depends on them. Her passion for machines and tools has defined her since childhood; she's just genuinely fascinated by how things work. It's what drove her toward automail repair in the first place, and she's good enough at it to run Rockbell Automail with her grandmother Pinako. She's also picked up some surgical knowledge along the way, which comes in handy in her line of work. Throughout the series, she's a constant presence in the Elrics' lives. It's pretty clear she has feelings for Edward—though he's typically oblivious about it—and she worries about him constantly, especially when his automail needs work. Being the one who keeps him mobile gives her a unique role in his story.
