Character: Gracia Hughes
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist
Character Age: Thirties
Job: Camp Mom
Canon: In a world where alchemy isn't just a theory, two brothers perform a forbidden technique called human transformation to bring their mother back to life. When things go horribly wrong, resulting in the loss of body parts, these two brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric go on a quest to return their bodies back to normal. During their journey, they make several friends and fight a group of enemies who only want to use them for their Evil Plan. It's tough, but these kids are willing to face the danger and challenges head on, kicking ass and learning important life lessons along the way.
One of those friends is Gracia, the loyal wife of military man, Maes Hughes. She's a sweet, caring woman who looks out for the brothers and their childhood friend; offering up her home and a listening ear should they ever need it. She's gentle and calm, and a pretty understanding person. Gracia's also a great mother who loves her family something fierce and is very patient with her husband's antics. Even when tragedy strikes in the form of Hughes being murdered, she does her best to stay strong for her daughter and smile so as not to burden anyone. Overall, she's a warm, friendly, motherly person with a very kind and very good heart. She's also a great cook who can make apple pies that'll knock your socks off.

Hello, everyone! To be honest, I was expecting you all to be a little younger and not quite so green, but that's all right. My name is Gracia and I'm here to be your Camp Mom. If any of you ever need to talk to someone about anything, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm a pretty good listener and I've even got lots of practice with giving hugs in case anyone ever wants one. I promise I don't bite. Now, I had a few activities prepared for us to do, although I'm not sure if any of you would still be interested...? -Ah, you are? That's wonderful! Just give me a few minutes to set things up and then we'll be all ready to go.
The first thing I wanted you to try is papier-mâché. I know it's a bit messy, but I thought it would be a fitting for camp activity and sometimes it can be fun to get your hands dirty, right? And it is a bit early, yes, but since Christmas is coming up, I thought making ornaments for your Christmas trees would be kind of neat. Let me just explain how it works and then everyone can get started. The first thing you want to do is take your strips of paper and dip them in the mixture that I've made, making sure that they're coated completely. Once that's done, grab one of the small balls I have over here-I'm sorry, I couldn't find any balloons, so we'll have to make do with these-and start covering them! It's fairly simple, but make sure that you don't make more than four layers. Otherwise, the balls might get crushed under the weight and the paper won't dry all the way which means we won't be able to decorate them. ...Does anyone have any questions? OK, go ahead and start, then!
See? It's pretty fun, isn't it? For those of you that are done, you can set your ornaments here to dry. I have extras if you want to make more than-oh, my. I suppose I should have mentioned this earlier, but please don't eat the mixture! It does have glue in it and I don't want any of you to get sick. ...No, I am most definitely not joking, so if you won't stop, I'm going to have to ask you to come over here and sit by me. You can just watch, all right? And you over there. Brian, was it? ...Braaaiiinnnsss, my mistake. I need you to stop coating yourself with paper. Those weren't the balls I was talking about and it's going to be difficult enough as it is to get the mixture off of your hands, let alone certain other parts of you. And I shouldn't have to mention how very inappropriate that is! Please, put your pants back on.
...Is everyone's finished? Great! Why don't we all get cleaned up and have a snack? I baked some pies earlier, so we can split them. There are a couple other things that we can try later, but for now, how about I tell you all a story while you're eating? It's about a man I once knew, and it goes something like this...
Once upon a time, there was a brave man who fought for his country. He was very strong and handsome, and had a big heart.
