Character
Edit
Personality
Edit
Manny is tough and a bully. He was seen picking on Jackson Jekyll in "Miss Infearmation" and was heard to be bullying Howleen Wolf in Abbey's 'School's Out' diary. However he's afraid of his sister Minnie and people who tell her his recent misbehavings so he is not a hardcore bully. He does not like being called a "bull". He has a dislike of zombies, due to them being so slow and does not believe that they should be allowed to play sports such as dodgeskull.
Appearance
Edit
Being the son of the minotaur, Manny is half-bull, half-man in his appearance. Manny also has a nose ring and wears red shirt with a labyrinth printed on it, and gray jeans. He has sandy blonde hair and is quite muscular. He also has tanned fur.
Classic Monster
Edit
In Greek mythology, the Minotaur is a creature with the head of a bull on the body of a man or, as described by Roman poet Ovid, "part man and part bull". "Minotaur" translates to "bull of Minos", Minos being the name of the king of Crete and the husband of the Minotaur's mother. The Minotaur dwelt at the center of the Cretan Labyrinth, which was an elaborate maze-like construction designed by the architect Daedalus and his son Icarus, on the command of King Minos. The Minotaur was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus.

He also appears in the auditorium, about to take a seat, when Spectra phases through him, Manny shudders soon afterwards.
- Dodgeskull - Manny refuses to let the zombies play on his dodgeskull team and is subsequently challenged by Ghoulia Yelps to a match to decide who of them will be the permanent dodgeskull captain. Using her brains and cheating a little, Ghoulia wins, much to Manny's distress.
- Ghosts with Dirty Faces - Manny seemingly was threatening Hoodude, who seemed 'surprisingly' unconcerned.
He was also a backgrounder in some webisodes, including "Falling Spirits", in which he and several other background students hurried away from Cleo and the Fear Squad when they tried to promote their video.

Notes
Edit
- Although Manny wears a red shirt, he says that he hates the color red. This is based on the urban myth that bulls charge at the color red.
