Conqueror Of Shamballa Wrath - Tumblr Posts
I just woke up and im still cryung over Conqueror of Shamballa
QRATGH I NEARLY FUCKINH STOPP3D WATCHING WHEN WRATH CAME ON SCEEEN I SCREECHED i love wrath hes my son BUT EUGHWAH
I'm the opposite. I want my favorite characters to die. I want them to go through such heartbreak that they completely shut down. I want them to go through such horrendous things.
Just so I can go "awe look at that silly guy :3" and then it's just the most tragic character you've ever seen.
That and I want to fucking bawl my eyes out when they do die/go through shit
"are you okay?" no I got way too attached to a fictional character and now they're dead

Some little doodles I may or may not finish at a later time. Got some of my favorite characters from various series interacting!!
Why? Autism.
Also my bf said that...

(I'm fucking giggling btw)
He said that Ed sleeps in the blood in Gluttony's stomach so I sketched that too.
So I have some really mixed feelings overall about FMA CoS but one part I do love is all the Wrath scenes. :)

We get to see Winry in her lovely CoS outfit and she’s visiting Izumi’s grave - poor Winry always seems to be visiting graves. Izumi’s been dead for some time. Her death must have had quite the impact on Wrath as he had some extremely conflicting feelings for her - did he hate her, resent her, love her, fear her, wanted to love/hate her, wanted her to love/hate him - it’s a real mess.
Either way, she’s dead and that leaves Wrath more alone than ever. Wrath’s earliest memories is of his own creation, of being created and then abandoned and then trapped inside the gate. The gate, which he describes as dark. It’s his greatest fear, to be left alone in that dark prison again. He wants to experience life. Upon waking up he alienates the humans and finds some sense of belonging with the other homunculi - but its fake and short lived as they soon all die too. And Izumi is still too hard to deal with so he runs away form her, feeling like he’s better off on his own.
But then he experiences a bit of kindness.

Winry builds him some automail limbs, the ones she was designing for Ed. (A sad thing really, effectively giving away a gift she really put her heart into - to what extent did she believe he was dead?) Wrath doesn’t stick around beyond that but he knows now that this is something of a safe haven for him.
Izumi’s death will have meant something to him and therefore its not too surprising to find him back in Risembool, sitting near her grave. He’s not quite able to ask for help though, he sticks to the shadows and when Winry does see him, the damage on his automail is extremely obvious, as is his desolate expression.

Winry is quite touchy about damages to her automail typically, but as this brief scene shows, her rage is borne out of concern, showing them how much she cares that they take care of the automail she’s made for them. When confronted with the desolate Wrath, who is so wary of others and so emotionally fragile, she just gently smiles as him, doesn’t ask how he feels about Izumi, and invites him to come and get some maintenance. In short, she’s kind and thoughtful.

Now, the damage to Wrath’s automail is quite obvious and it could have been a long time since he last appeared and got it repaired, but it also may have been quite recently. I wouldn’t put it past him to push his automail extra hard and treat it roughly so it would require maintenance sooner (and lashing out in some sort of violent rage would not be out of character anyway) so he has an excuse to be there. He feels safer with a pretext, else he’d have to admit that the real reason he’s there is because he cares.
I saw a post at some point where it was like "I wanna see a spin off series of fmab with Al's adventures in Xing!!"
I WANNA SEE A SPIN OFF SERIES ON WRATH AFTER HE WAS OUT AND ABOUT LEADING UP TO COS!!
That was like, what, a 3 year gap? I wanna know what my favorite lil homunculus was up to. Give me more Wrath content PLEASE

Silly lil guy, also I think he should've kept his burns from when 47-48. Silly guy
Do you guys ever think about the fact Ed kinda just let Wrath choke him? He didn't stop him, sure he put his hand on his forearm but that wasn't stopping him.

He could've tried transmuting his automail, transmuting the carbon that makes up Wraths body. He could've very much tried hurting him or tried killing him.
But he didn't.
I think it's because Ed was thinking he deserved it. Mostly because of his words to Izumi after Wrath ran off:
"He was.. Crying. While I can't even squeeze out a single tear, that poor kid's crying like a baby. Like he, like he was crying because I couldn't."
I think Wrath and Ed are one in the same, Wrath is like Ed's intrusiveness and emotionalness but at a higher level. More extreme in a sense. But they're so alike I love them.
Idk how to explain it, I'll explain more later maybe.
I was gonna say smth but WHY THE FUCK IS THE WRATH GETTING BITTEN BY GLUTTONY IMAGE ON THE WRATH FMA WIKI FUCKING CALLED "eated.png" IM FUCKING CRYING


Some doodles
It's 3 AM I've been doodling for 7 hours straight.


Oh yeah speaking of Wrath, I recently discovered something (two things specifically) when I was scowering through Google to look for Wrath merch (because I am sane. I promise.)
So:

They done fucked up my boy. This, for those that don't know, is what the Wiki says is Wrath 03's 3D model for the PS2 game, "Fullmetal Alchemist: Dream Carnival" - which is, I guess if you had to compare, like a Smash Bros type game made back in August of 2004.
This isn't actually the render he uses in game, as we can see here:



The render is correct in game, with his arms fully two toned, he doesn't have the cuff on his Ed arm, and he clearly has his undershirt; Unlike in the render depicted on the Wiki. (Sorry for the low quality screenshots from google and youtube, I will be able to get more better quality once I get the game for myself hopefully.) He looks so silly I can't.
I dunno where they got this render, but here's more talk of the game;

Something else I noticed when looking at gameplay of this game, and I will continue to do because I don't know what the games actually about I just know 03 Wrath is in it, is that the lil chibi Wrath shown as a button to press is actually Wrath before he remembers and remembers just what he is.
I've also never seen that chibi Wrath before - not in any of the offical art, most of it uses the Wrath pictured below when he is shown from what I have seen, not in merch; Nothing.

The only other Wrath chibi I have seen is the one in the Chibi Party OVA where he seems to be arguing with Izumi. (I'm a lil upset that he got no lines in said OVA even though he was an important character in CoS, we see ELICIA more - but at least I get to see him, I suppose.)


The other tangent will be the next post, so stick around ig.
