What do you call Al's armor seal?


**What do you call Alphonse Elric's armor seal?** I have yet to read or watch
this series but the answer can be found
[here](https://fma.fandom.com/wiki/Blood_Rune). Apparently, a soul can be
bound to inanimate objects via a Blood Rune.

In exchange, Ed gave up his right arm and used his own blood to successfully
bind his brother's soul. The blood rune can be seen in Al's body.
