Private Sheska was a librarian who was responsible for organizing and keeping records of all of the books in the First Branch of the Central City library. Sheska is a bibliophile in the mold of Read or Die's Yomiko Readman, and frequently spent more time reading books in the library than organizing them. She is also known for her tendency toward hysterical panic as a coping mechanism. By the time the Elric brothers had arrived back in Central she has been fired from the library for lackluster performance. Sheska has a photographic memory when it comes to books, and her ability to recite them verbatim was a great help to the Elric Brothers for recreating Tim Marcoh's book after Scar's battle with Lust and Gluttony destroyed the library. She also helped Hughes recreate State Military files lost in the library until he fired her to save Sheska from the military's higher-ups.
After Hughes' death, she tried investigating his death herself, and succeeded in learning the strange discrepancies about King Bradley's secretary Juliet Douglas, which is the same information that Hughes discovered before he was killed. Sheska explained her theory to Winry while Winry was in Central, and both decided to tap the phone lines to King Bradley’s secretary. This confirmed the discrepancies regarding Ms. Douglas, and Sheska subsequently fled to Resembool with Winry to escape Maes Hughes’ fate. Eventually, in Resembool, she revealed the fact of Hughes' death to the Elric brothers as well (which quickly, and obviously shocked them to the point that Edward furiously tried to leave in order to see if it was actually true).
