Name: William Campbell

Age: 25

Rank: Major

State title: The Trapping Alchemist

Appearance:

Backstory: Ever since William was a boy his interest in Alchemy always lead him into trouble. Practising the art whenever he saw fit, and usually having little to no regard for the consequences. By the age of 14 William thought he knew everything there was to know about alchemy and decided to learn alkahestry, thinking they were along the same lines. He mustered up some money and took a long and unforgettable trip to Xing, where he went to tons of different libraries cross referencing everything he learned. It was to his misfortune when he accidentally stumbled upon a sacred families secret. Descendants of the aforementioned family abducted him off the street a few days later and preformed unauthorized and unprofessional surgery on him. During the abduction they removed his vocal cords, this was a symbolic way of saying don't speak a word of the family's secret. Luckily for William, doctors at the nearest hospital used alkahestry and medical sciences to save his life, and prevent him from bleeding out. The doctors told William that he would probably never speak again. William had to find an alternative way to communicate with people, he started to use a small, clipboard sized chalkboard to write out what he wants to say.

William came back to Amestris a changed man. William was no longer filled with excitement and curiosity, instead, depression and cynicism. Every where he went, he felt like he could trust no one. He'd thought a lot about that day in Xing, and everyday he wonders why he couldn't defend himself. William knows so much about alchemy, yet, he still managed to get abducted. William came to the conclusion that he needed to get stronger, but self motivation wasn't enough to do that, he also needed resources. He needed more knowledge. This is where he decided to become a state alchemist.

He became a state alchemist a few months after the Ishvalan war had ended, he thought there would be a lack of soldiers after the war, and it would be a good chance to join.

Specialty: Liquefaction - William uses alchemy to create quicksand using the ground, thus his name 'The Trapping Alchemist'. William must preform a chain like reaction to create this quicksand. First, he uses his alchemy to deconstruct the earth in a targeted area and destroy it into millions of pieces of sand. William then uses his alchemy to create water from exchanging the material around the sand (wood, concrete, dirt etc.). The third step in his form of alchemy is to saturate the freshly made sand with the water he transmuted, giving him quicksand. William was the first person to create and use this type of alchemy, William used this alchemy during the practical part of his state alchemist exam. He preforms his alchemy with a small chalkboard that he carries around, this chalkboard is the same one he uses to communicate with.
