About
Second Lieutenant Maria Ross is put in charge of taking care of the Elric brothers during their stay in Central. She and her partner were assigned the task of guarding the Elrics due to Scar's return in Central and his previous attempt on Ed and Al's lives. Almost immediately, she takes on the role of a parental figure. She tries to give guidance to the brothers whenever she can. She took a liking to Ed and Al, and risked her life to calm Ed down when he was absorbing the red stone material inside laboratory 5. Both she and her partner Denny Brosh work under Major Alex Louis Armstrong.
Envy disguised himself as Ross when the Homunculi lured Maes Hughes into a trap when he was getting too close to discovering the truth about their conspiracy to make a Philosopher's Stone. Assuming Ross's form and mimicking her voice Envy "rescued" Hughes from Lust, Gluttony and Sloth and led him away to a secluded area of Central. During the "rescue" Hughes realized that it was Envy he was really with because he had noticed that Ross was mysteriously missing the mole under her left eye. Envy mockingly apologized for his carelessness and Maes slashes Envy's throat open with one of his hidden knives. Unfortunately, that didn't kill Envy and he simply rose up again and shot Hughes with his side arm after taking the form of Hughes's wife Gracia (Episode 25).
Later, Ross recognized Winry as she attempted to spy on the Führer's secretary, and eventually followed her to Resembool. Then, she had a short-lived crush on Hohenheim.
Toward the end of the anime series Maria Ross and her partner become involved in the fighting in Central during the uprising against Führer Bradley. Ross and Brosh first freed Russell Tringum and Fletcher Tringum after they were mistaken for the Elric brothers and sentenced to death by the Führer for their alleged treason. Later, Ross and Brosh led a small contingent of soldiers against Frank Archer after he cornered Izumi Curtis and began cutting down soldiers whom he felt were not loyal to the Führer. (Episode 49)
As many of the military personnel in Fullmetal Alchemist are army/aviation-derived, it is possible that she is named after the Canadian Sir Charles Ross of the Ross Rifle.
