Greed
Greed, the "Ultimate Shield," craves money, women, and other worldly possessions above all else. Because of this, he betrays the homunculi in both the anime and the manga, as working for them would deprive him of his greedy desires. He has the ability to rearrange the carbon molecules in his body to create a shield, hard as a diamond, that coats his body. Greed is introduced when he sends some of his chimera subordinates to capture Alphonse Elric. The State Military soon raids their location to rescue Al, and Greed's fate, from that point further, differs between adaptations.
In the manga and second anime, Wrath repeatedly kills Greed multiple times, finally managing to subdue him, and then takes him back to Father. Unwilling to rejoin them, Greed is melted down and returned to the form of the Philosopher's Stone, then consumed by Father. Later, Lin Yao, in his search for immortality, offers to become the new Greed. Greed is given complete control of Lin's body after Lin willingly relinquishes control, believing this to be the only way to gain immortality. Though this Greed initially has no recollections of his actions as the former Greed, Bido's death brings back the memories of all his loyal subordinates. Angry with Wrath for killing his "possessions," and further provoked by Lin, the new Greed defects from the homunculi once more, eventually letting Edward Elric join him for a short time.
In the first anime, Greed escapes the raid, fleeing to Dante's mansion. Dante, having created Greed when attempting to revive her dead lover, still retained the bones from his original body, which left him severely weakened. Edward Elric kills Greed soon after he was made to believe that Greed killed Dante, though not before leaving with the valuable knowledge of how to kill the homunculi. He is voiced by Junichi Suwabe in Japanese, and Chris Patton in English. His voice in the new series is provided by Yuichi Nakamura.
