Noah

Noah is a character from Fullmetal Alchemist movie Conqueror of Shamballa. She is a young traveling Gypsy girl who Edward saves from being sold to the Thule Society. On the surface, she is proud of her heritage and lifestyle, but is unable to bear being discriminated for it. She has the unexplained ability to read the minds of others, becoming fascinated with Ed's world after witnessing his memories of it while he is asleep. Believing she wouldn't be discriminated in Ed's world, Noah assists Dietlinde Eckhart and the Thule Society in opening The Gate of Truth to "Shamballa" based on information from Ed's memories. She cries out for Edward to take her with him as he is flying into the gate. Shortly after this, Noah relents once Edward points out the errors of her ways, and leaves Munich together with the Elric brothers.

Noah shows strong emotional connection to Edward throughout the movie, which turns in to a full-blown romantic love (shown by her touching her head to his while he is sleeping, around halfway in to the movie). Edward has also shown connection to her, such as forgiving her and accompanying her with Al at the end of the movie. Becuase of this, it is widely believed that Noah and Ed eventually fell in love in the end of the original anime.

Noah exists on Earth as the dimensianal counterpart to Rose.
