7!!Examples
8* AdaptationalBadass: [[spoiler:Xiao Mei]]
9* ActionMom: Izumi adopted Harry, thus making her a mother.
10* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Xiao Mei
11* AlchemyIsMagic: Inverted. Magic is Alchemy, and the power comes from the life of the wizard.
12* {{Atlantis}}: Amestris is a country on Earth in this story. But what? that's not possible? What about all the neighboring countries? Cavy had a solution to the problem. The [[{{precursors}} Xerxesians]] got tired of being bothered by would be conquerors and people begging help, and hid the whole continent.
13* AttackReflector: Dumbledore tried to kill Ling. Greed backhanded the spell away and it took of the trailing end off of Dumbledore's beard.
14* BadassBoast: Truth gets several, and Mustang gets one as well.
15* BerserkButton: As in the manga, Ed hates being called short. Mustang keeps score of how often he can hit this one.
16* BestFriendsInLaw: Ed and Ling are well on their way to becoming this, much to Ed's distaste.
17* BigFriendlyDog: Actually big friendly [[ShapeshifterModeLock Shapeshifter Mode Locked]] dog Animagus.
18* BigBrotherInstinct: to Al, as in canon, and to Harry.
19* BlockingStopsAllDamage: Only when Greeling does it.
20* CosmicPlaything: Truth is a busy little deity, nudging Ed into position to take down the wizards. Even more than that, a side story revealed that Ed was specifically created to be this. At least Ed gets a heads up fifty percent of the time.
21* CurbStompBattle: The Amestrians to the wizards. Six wizards vs half the WorldOfBadass that is the FMA cast? That was probably overkill.
22%%* EldritchAbomination: Ling (with Greed) probably qualifies.
23* EquivalentExchange: This is a ''Fullmetal Alchemist'' story.
24* DeadpanSnarker: Ed and Mustang.
25* GateOfTruth: This is a ''Fullmetal Alchemist'' fanfiction. A bit more interactive that the usual examples of this, Ed gets frustrated by it's continued laughter.
26* HumiliationConga: The wizards are dancing to Truth's tune on this one.
27* MindRape: Dumbledore trying this kicked off the plot. Trying it again later resulted in his [[spoiler:death]]. Snape and Moody try it too, with similar results to the first time.
28* SamusIsAGirl: The Phoenix is nether male nor Dumbledore's. She's Truth's, but she'll stay with Ed.
29* TheProphecy: Subverted. There is one, but it comes up near the end, and consists of DoomyDoomsOfDoom.
30* TheOmniscient: Truth.
31* TheDogWasTheMastermind: In this case it was ThePhoenix, by Truth's command.
