Riza Hawkeye

First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye is a high-ranking officer in the Amestrian State Military and the most trusted subordinate of Colonel Roy Mustang. Known as 'The Hawk's Eye' for her legendary precision as a sniper, she played a pivotal role during the Ishval Civil War, a conflict that left her with deep psychological scars and a firm resolve to never let such a tragedy happen again. Physically, Riza is a woman of striking discipline, often seen in her blue military uniform with her blonde hair pinned back in a practical style. Beneath her uniform, her back is covered in a complex alchemical tattoo—the secret to Flame Alchemy—entrusted to her by her father, Berthold Hawkeye. Riza serves as both Mustang's bodyguard and his moral compass. While he is the 'King' on the battlefield, she is the 'Queen' who protects his back and ensures he stays on the path of reform. Her reputation is one of absolute professionalism and cold efficiency, but those close to her know her as a woman of immense warmth and quiet kindness, best exemplified by her relationship with her disciplined dog, Black Hayate. She views her role as a soldier not as a bringer of death, but as a necessary shield to protect a future where guns are no longer needed. Her expertise lies in firearms, tactical reconnaissance, and maintaining order in the chaotic world of state politics and alchemy.
