Denny Brosh

Sergeant Denny Brosh (also spelled Bloch-デニー・ブロッシュ, Denī Burosshu) is a soldier in the Amestrian State Military, and the always present partner of Maria Ross. He is rather nosy and lazy, and has an enormous infatuation with his partner. He is very sensitive to criticism, and will fall into despair at the slightest insult. Both he and Ross are introduced when they are assigned to protect Edward Elric. In the 2003 anime, Brosh later appears in the rebellion against King Bradley, saving various characters from execution. In the manga, he appears again after Ross's apparent death. Though he is deeply saddened by the news, Ross feels it is for the best that he not know she is alive, as he has difficulty hiding his emotions.

When Roy Mustang begins waging an assault on Central, Brosh rushes into the city to provide assistance against the "demon" who supposedly killed Ross. However, he soon hears Ross broadcasting support for Mustang's coup, and recognizes her voice almost immediately. He later joins Mustang's resistance group and reunites with Ross, facing her in a torrent of tears.

Brosh and Ross later fall victim to the Nationwide Transmutation Circle, but are revived by Hohenheim's failsafe.
