Rosé Thomas

Rosé (ロゼ, Roze; also spelled Rose) is a young woman introduced at the very start of the series. She is a devout believer in her town's local faith, believing that serving the church will bring back her dead boyfriend. The Elric brothers' arrival in town opens Rosé's eyes to the church's corruption and forces her to realize her boyfriend is not coming back. Rosé does not appear again until much later in the series. In the manga she helps to rebuild the town, eventually reuniting with Alphonse Elric. In the 2003 anime she instead becomes the mute "Holy Mother" of the townspeople, giving them a symbol of guidance as they rise up against the State Military. Rosé loses her voice after being captured by a soldier of the military. She is implied to have been raped, as after her reintroduction she is often seen carrying a baby with her who she cares for deeply. She is later captured by Dante, whose purpose is Rosé's body. Later on near the end of the series Rose admitted to Ed that she loved him.

In the first anime series, she is portrayed with having dark skin, purple eyes and dark brown hair with bright pink bangs. In the second series however, she has pale skin, purple eyes and black hair with her pink bangs noticeably darker.
