Canon

Winry is a childhood friend of brothers Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric. She lives with her grandmother Pinako Rockbell after the death of her parents in the Ishvallan War. She's an automail mechanic, and helps build Edward a new arm and leg after the alchemy tragedy that starts off the series.

Throughout the series, viewers get to see her travels and growth as a mechanic. Often, she's visited by the main characters to help fix Ed's automail. Later in the series, Fuhrer King Bradley realizes she is special to Ed, and he uses her as a hostage.

The Rockbell women are renowned for their courage and tenacity. (Winry, on girlhood and grief and holding on tight.)
Paninya introduces Winry to the common Rush Valley pastime of smoking weed. Winry realizes she really wants Paninya to kiss her.
The Rockbell women have always breathed smoke, her grandmother tells her, not long after her parents die, but not soon either. We’re furnaces, you and me, she says. Anything that tries to go through us will need to melt.

Meta

...she charges Ed as much as possible because the military pays for basically everything he has and she'll jump at any chance to drain the government's coffers.
