Hope that helps.. ( i got confused too.. @_@ ..but i figured it out^^ )info/spoiler wrote:Hohenheim, Ed and Al's dad, is over 400 years old. Back 400 years ago, he tried to create a Philosopher's Stone and died, but Dante saved him by acting on instinct and putting his soul in another person's body. Dante and Hohenheim have been body jumping since then, and now Dante has Lyra's body (not sure bout Hohenheim). They were in love in the past, till they ended up seperating. Hohenheim eventually fell in love with Trisha Elric, Ed and Al's mom, and after Ed and Al turned a certain age, he disappeared again. But he's back. There are hints here and there that Hohenheim posesses a Philosipher's Stone. Dante's new body is rotting because she doesn't have a stone, and Hohenheim seems fine (well..there was one scene that could shake that idea..when, in the past, they showed Hohenheim's shoulder and it seemed odd..). Dante made the Homonculus so that she could create another stone, and she's been using everybody up to this point.

Spoiler wrote:There's a great deal of speculation about Hohenheim, and his relation to this world. He alludes to, or rather blatantly states, his travelling from world to world several times, including our own. This "planeshifting" for lack of a better term, lends to many interesting theories, one concerning that of Nicholas Flammel. People may jump on me for naming a Harry Potter character, but the truth is, Flammel DID exist, in the late 1500s to mid 1600s to be exact, and is credited to have actually created the Philosopher's Stone after recieving a book which supposedly belonged to Abraham the Jew (see Genesis if you have no idea what I'm talking about). Many people speculate that Flammel actually was Hohenheim, after he traveled to our universe, and created the stone here under that guise. Others believe that Hohenheim confided within Flammel the secrets to creating the stone, even in our world. Still others claim that it was, in fact, Hohenheim's notes that he had acquired, Hohenheim using the pen-name "Abraham the Jew" so as to conceal his identity, the same way Alchemists code their own research - Mustang, for instance, writes all his notes in a little black book and uses the names, telephone numbers, and their addresses of cute girls as a code.
spoilers wrote:I knew about Flammel being real. I actually thought about something similar to your idea, though i like your idea on it better.
Just a note, do you know what the Philosipher's Stone really is? The Philosipher's Stone is not physical, and it's not mental. It's a spiritual object of great power, and it can only be attained through the death of the human body. It's about attaining spiritual enlightment. The turning of lead to gold, is actually the turning of the human being to a spiritual being... At least, that's what i read somewhere... > >
Lust and Envy show signs of remembering their pasts, I'm sure the others do as well. After all, Sloth should motherly tendencies towards Wrath, probably cuz she once was a mother. But, oh well, I just love the series and am ecstatic that Envy is back in the picture. Mmmmmm....Envy...
