updating Mustang's info page

I've had the "my character's place in canon" description up on my info page since I started, but I recently added a decently thorough explanation of what alchemy is, what it can and can't do, and what Roy typically does with it: http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=alchemy_4_arson

So if you want to know what a transmutation array is, why Roy is always carrying chalk in his pockets, or what the character is capable-of ability-wise, you can check it out. Alchemy for Roy Mustang is the same as it is for Edward ([livejournal.com profile] alchemic_bean), except that Ed doesn't have to draw a transmutation circle, he simply has to clap his hands and concentrate. This is extremely rare, and requires an explanation way too long and detailed for RP purposes-- suffice to say the circle guides the transmutation, and Ed had divine/demonic knowledge crammed in his brain that allows him to do it instinctively without needing a circle.

[[ooc: Oh, trust me, demonic was perfect. It led my brain straight to gatebabiesohnoes, which was fabulous. :D]]

Havoc has SPAYSHUL alchemy--he can light a cigarette by making Roy snap his fingers. =D

I'm teenage!Havoc--I had to write a bio for him for some other RP I'm in, so I'm basically just using that... only instead of going to Boarding School he's going here. So we don't know each other, darling. Mah pappy sent me here because I pulled a couple of pranks and he didn't like it. XD
