Name: Hohenheim
Title: The Alchemist of Genesis
Race: Even though Hohenheim's body is artificial in nature, its makeup is no different than that of typical human being, except that it was projected to be perfect in every way conceivable.
Gender: Hohenheim would be glad to enlighten you, if you don't believe your eyes. I hope you have a lot of stamina, though. You'll need it.
Age, Sexuality & Religion: All of these are menial concepts far below Hohenheim's scope. She has more to do than to keep track of such boring subjects.
Job: Up to the contractor.
Appearance:☉ Height: 147 cm
☉ Weight: 42 kg
Hohenheim's current appearance is a precisely engineered construct. Needless to say, this isn't the Alchemist's original vessel, but a body that Hohenheim created to fit her notions of perfection. Who, or what, she was before becoming the currently seen being is a mystery up to debate. It's only known that she inhabited a host of different bodies before settling with her current, and favorite, homunculus vessel of choice.
Hohenheim is very picky when it comes to clothing. She'll only wear outfits that she feels that enhance the appeal of her form. As an alchemist, armor isn't something she's worried about, nor does Hohenheim care for it. Because of that, the Alchemist tends to wear alluring and expensive clothing at all times. Oh, and she has a passion for gold, shamelessly wearing jewelry such as her Ouroboros tiara with is easy as valuable as many a kings' crowns. Being able to produce the thing literally at the snap of a finger certainly, helps fuel Hohenheim's vanity.
Personality:The Alchemist of Genesis, also known as Hohenheim, is probably one of the smuggest beings ever conceived. Hohenheim is both blatant and unrepentant in her belief that she's the very pinnacle of creation, a feat that she achieved on her own, through nothing but the power of intellect.
The only beings that she considers equal to or above her are her Master, simply known as Empress of the Court, along with a small crowd of peers of equally nebulous nature. For this world's eternal gratitude, most of them are roaming the vast expanses of the multiverse, each in their own dark missions. For its woe, Hohenheim and the Empress, two of the vilest between such a mysterious crowd, took a liking of this dimension.
Regardless of that, if there's one thing that Hohenheim loves above all else, it's knowledge. The Alchemist is passionate in her search for new fields of study both arcane and natural. A totally degenerated scientific mind, devoid of any notions of empathy or ethics, Hohenheim is a being that lives only to fulfill every single of her ambitions, self-indulgences, and unrestrained ego.
The worst part of it all? Hohenheim is human. Someone that chose to be like she's now, not someone that was born inhuman or corrupted by dark powers. Perhaps this is why the Alchemist of Genesis places monsters of any nature in so low regard. After all, if you do not have the chance of choosing your own path, if you don't know what it's to be human, to hold your fate in your own hands, and be the master of yourself, how does it make you better than a machine?
Biography:The story of the Alchemist of Genesis is long and nebulous. A legend recorded in the dark recesses of Creation in dusty tomes and crumbling scrolls written in an indecipherable code and symbology that only those most well-versed in the Hermetic arts can ever hope to comprehend...
A long, long time ago, there existed an ancient civilization that thrived in an arid region thanks to its advanced scientific and magical lore, far beyond that of any nation that was built in its wake. Even for such an advanced people, there was a being that was known for its unmatched genius. Its name is long forgotten, the ciphers in which it's written unreadable by even the wisest of the scholars. The only fact known about said being is that it was a practitioner of the art that would be dubbed Alchemy in later years. Even that may be wrong since many fonts claim that such being was the original creator of what would come to be Alchemy. Though, calling its craft mere Alchemy may be a demerit, given that it was advanced far beyond the wildest dreams of any alchemist to come.
This being is the very one that would come be known as Hohenheim, Trismegistus, Paracelsus, among many other names and titles much later in the annals of history.
Nevertheless, Hohenheim's greatest title, The Alchemist of Genesis, comes from the fact that she was able to touch the root of all knowledge, thought, and feelings, the Akashic Records, through the fruit of her work. Not once anyone duplicated this feat and a mere glimpse of The Truth was enough to change Hohenheim forever. To say that she became the being that she's now because she forgot what it's to be human is a misconception. If there's anyone that knows what's a man, this one is the Alchemist.
Hohenheim didn't lose her way in her search for knowledge. She made her own, paved with blood, sweat and... less pleasant cobblestones.
The reason why she took an interest in this world and time, as well as heed the summons of Lancelot’s dubious messengers, is simply because Hohenheim saw a great chance to have some quality time along with her Master. Even if she has to follow the directions of a being she considers less worthy of her time than a dead fly.
Race Description:Hohenheim's body may be human in its make up, nevertheless, it's made in such a way that it's the very pinnacle of what humanity can be. The afflictions of the flesh are long forgotten to her, even though she's perfectly capable of indulging in every single of its pleasures.
Curse/Power Description:The Alchemist's body is unaging and immune to all forms of mundane diseases, corrosives, and poisons, as well as being extremely resistant to most magical ones. She has also surpassed the need for rest and nourishment, though Hohenheim will indulge in those things regardless of needing them or not. Lastly, but not least, it possesses a vast regenerative ability, being able to heal from most non-fatal wounds in a fraction of the time that would take for a normal human to do so, along with the ability to survive nearly any kind of injury. Killing Hohenheim may not be impossible, but it's certainly a daunting task.
Spell list:While Hohenheim's repertoire may as well be considered infinite in its extension, given the fact that her alchemical might allows her to alter and shape the world around her in ways that vary according to the elements at her disposal at any given time, there are still a few effects that she tends to use more than others.
☉ Transmutation:
Through the power of alchemy, Hohenheim is capable of changing the size, shape, and properties of any object that she's in contact with directly or not. A few examples the feats available to her are raising and shaping metal and stone, transmuting inferior substances into gold and silver, water into alcohol, etc.
☉ Golem Creation:
An application of her alchemy, Hohenheim can impregnate inanimate objects with a facsimile of life, allowing them to function as automatons under her command. The only real limitation to this ability is the shape and composition of the golems, which naturally limit their functionality.
☉ Alkahest:
The universal solvent. This is a highly corrosive, and volatile fluid that Hohenheim can transmute using the natural components of the world around her. It’s said to be able to dissolve anything, breaking other materials into their basic components. Hohenheim stores it in special glass flasks coated in aether —a substance not from this world— that are able to resist Alkahest’s properties. The Alchemist uses this substance mainly for scientific purposes, but it also works wonderfully as grenade-like weapons.
☉ Bio Transmutation:
In the same way that Hohenheim could make her body immune to the afflictions of the flesh, so can she do to others’. The Alchemist can use a combination of her arts to heal and repair any possible wounds, disease, and poisoning that a being may be suffering.
☉ Ars Magna:
Hohenheim’s greatest conventional trick. At the cost of consuming a whole Philosopher’s Stone worth of power, Ars Magna breaks the laws of Thermodynamics, allowing Hohenheim to manipulate the very foundations of the world. She can reverse entropy, changing any single event to a previous state, outright destroy or create new matter or energy.
These are but a matter of personal preference and should not be taken as a limit in the Alchemist's transmutation abilities. For all that's known about her, Hohenheim may as well be able to rearrange matter at a subatomic level. At the very least she has the appropriate physical lore and arcane might to do so.
Hohenheim has neither use nor interest on abilities, feats, and talents outside of the scientific and mystical spectrum. Strength, speed, and toughness are illusions which she has surpassed a long time ago. If there’s one skill which Hohenheim has mastered a long time ago that might be a surprise for those who meet her at first it would be:
☉ Cooking:
It’s said that the alchemy was born in the kitchen. Hohenheim is a living testament of that. Her knowledge of alchemy, chemistry, and physics all comes together to make the Alchemist an unparalleled chef. Getting her to cook to you and not poison the food with some drug or another is a whole different ordeal.
Just like her Master, Hohenheim’s single most weakness is that the Alchemist isn’t built for battle, nor does she have any interest on it. If placed in a situation where her alchemy is less than effective, Hohenheim is left with options of what to do. Furthermore, just like her Master, Hohenheim’s power gets progressively weaker if they are separated, diminishing with every increase in distance.
Equipment:What possible need could Hohenheim have for Equipment? The Alchemist of Genesis can produce nearly any kind of material or instrument that she may require for her studies. She has no need, use, or interest for bogus items like magic swords and steam powered machines. All of this is far below her level. That said, there are few possessions that Hohenheim keeps with her at nearly all times:
☉ Bezalel, Legacy of the Dollmaker:
Hohenheim’s grimoire. She doesn’t really on it to perform any of her feats but likes to use it as a journal of her scientific achievements and diary for personal affairs. It’s a cryptic book that seems to have endless pages. One of the possessions that Hohenheim cherishes the most.
☉ Lapis Philosophorum:
The Philosopher's Stone. It’s a source of power that can be used to amplify Hohenheim’s alchemical might. By entirely consuming it, she can use her Ars Magna.
Hohenheim can only have one Stone with her at all times, producing one after the previous has been consumed requires the completion of a new Magnum Opus, a complex process that involves the sacrifices of many lives and consumption of very rare materials of nebulous nature. For this very reason, Hohenheim will save her Ars Magna for the most important occasions.

Description of Artifact: Up to the Contractor
Relationships:The only possibly good relationship that Hohenheim has is with her Master, which she’s so dedicated to, for a reason known to none but the two of them. Aside from her Master, nothing else in this world is worth of Hohenheim’s attention, be it love or hate. The Alchemist makes no secret of the fact that she holds lesser being with the same consideration that a human holds a maggot.
