Barry is a minor antagonist from Fullmetal Alchemist. He was once a human and a convicted murderer also going by the moniker "Barry the Butcher". It started after a dispute with his wife who became the first of 23 victims as he would then secretly slay others during his time as a butcher. His "death" by execution known by the public upon bring caught was a front by Central's government as he was really a test subject by the Amestrian military in alchemical labs as the 66th prisoner, having his soul bound to the armor. Since then he guards the 5th lab from intruders.

In his human body he was a slender middle aged man with short blonde hair but upon having his soul bound to a suit of armor he appears more broad and having grim features. Sections of the armor having layered iron plating and the suit wears a fur-lined warrior pelt over most of his torso. The horned helmet sports a spiked white mane of hair along the back and the face plate is reminiscent of a sort of fanged animal skull with the lower jaw prominently open and the eyes being sunken. The red dots of the eyes being a result of his soul inhabiting it.

His preferred weapon is a set of dual large meat cleavers. While he doesn't have significant abilities due to being a soul inhibiting a suit of armor he can withstand various forms of force trauma and also possesses some agility despite the broad physique. He is semi invincible while bound to the armor so long as the blood seal on his armor is intact.

On the surface, Barry comes off as an imposing and threatening individual, often introducing himself to potential victims in a histrionic fashion. Wholely unapologetic, he took great pride in his status as a killer and described it as an obsessive compulsion; he felt as if he had no choice to murder others as it was a part of who he was. The act of cutting flesh and the sight of meat and blood seemed to be what caused him to become a butcher or perhaps his obsession with cutting originated from it. To some degree he enjoyed instilling fear in his victims and would be visibly disappointed when they were unafraid of him. A boisterious and talkative person, Barry took a great liking to conversing with anyone and everyone, including those he intended to murder. Always one to speak his mind, he could even be seen as a somewhat friendly person, though his topics often concerned his obsessions. Despite his history as a serial killer, Barry came off as a humorous and comical character. He was often very unconcerned in dangerous situations and was not the type to take things seriously. Barry had little loyalty to anyone but himself and would switch sides simply because he found it fun. When spending time with Mustang's men he would listen to their directives (most of the time) and even help them of his own accord for no apparent reason other than because he liked them. Although stylized as comic-relief, Barry was shrewder and more intelligent than he led on. He was able to immediately see the value in freeing Ling from jail to help Maria Ross and was able to recognize before anyone else that an attacker could possess valuable information. Despite being a soul bonded to a suit of armor, he had a strong sense of self and identity, declaring "I kill therefore I am". He also possessed an extremely accurate memory, at least in regards to the details of his murders.
