History: He was born in the south, but his parents moved at a very young age to the north. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the plains to a summer home near a ruined castle. He would wander through that ruined castle and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the plains due to the painful memories there. Manfred took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up spear and armor he uses now. Since then, he has sought to make the best of life.
