The first seven Homunculi created by Father. In the manga Arakawa mostly depicted the Homunculi's eyes as purple, but occasionally they appeared as red.

They also share the same black hair and the same eye color, which is shown to be lavender in the 2003 series and purple in the 2009 series.

They are named after the seven deadly sins: Pride, Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Wrath, Sloth, and Envy. The Homunculi created by Father (with the sole exception of Pride) carry the mark of the Ouroboros upon their bodies and are identified as such by said mark. In the most relevant sense of the word, "Homunculus" refers to the eight individuals who make up the primary antagonistic force of the Fullmetal Alchemist series. However, off the official record, not only one but several of these creatures have been created in arcane, sinister secrecy. Even so, alchemists have been forbidden by the Amestrian government to attempt or research the transmutation of humans and State Alchemists have such a restriction as part of their creed. Though a common concept, well known and understood by alchemists in Amestris, the idea of homunculus is regarded as no more than a farce or faraway fantasy as no individual or group of alchemists has come anywhere close to successfully creating such a being in officially recorded history. Homunculus (人造人間, Homunkurusu, Latin for "Little Human", Japanese for "Artificial Human") refers to the medieval legendary concept of an artificially created human, presumably brought into existence by certain means of alchemy. For the manga and 2009 anime storyline antagonist who went by this name, see Father (Fullmetal Alchemist). This article is about the artificial humans named for the seven sins or created by the military.
