Heathcliff Erbe is an anime-only character introduced in the Bonus Episode: Yet Another Man's Battlefield. He was as an Ishvalan cadet around the same time that Roy Mustang and Maes Hughes also enlisted in the military. Heathcliff joined in hope of becoming an officer and eliminating discrimination from within in the military, much like the motivations of Major Miles, another Ishvalan soldier.
Due to his race, many other soldiers constantly harassed and threatened Heathcliff whenever running into him, usually exclaiming, "Ew, I've got the stench of an Ishvalan on me!"
Roy Mustang first met up with him during one of these encounters, and, disgusted by the fellow soldier's behavior, tried to assist him. He later got into a brawl with the same four men upon seeing the situation yet again and, with the aid of Hughes, finally set everything straight. The three young cadets formed a friendship afterwards in their early academy days, up until the Ishval Civil War.
Judging from his Ishvalan attire during the war, Heathcliff had apparently left the military by 1908 - likely due to the government purging of Ishvalan-born soldiers at the start of the Ishval Extermination Campaign. Either way, he met up with Roy Mustang yet again when Mustang was ordered to take out another group of Ishvalans. The reunion was a heavy
one, with Mustang in awe over finding his old friend standing before him, and Heathcliffe in shock over seeing the man who defended him all those years ago now slaughtering his people. Full of anger and hatred, Heathcliff suddenly fired upon Mustang with a handgun, dropping him, but Maes leapt out in that same moment, immediately retaliating by shooting Heathcliffe in the temple, killing him. Mustang survived due to his State Alchemist watch catching the bullet, but was left in despair over the actions of the military and himself.
