Personality
Manny is a very skilled, resourceful and somewhat manipulative salesman, saying and doing whatever it takes to further his own interests. His selfish and unapologetic nature often leaves the people who know him very resentful. However, Manny doesn't appear to care much for other people's opinion of him, often teasing, insulting, lying and even stealing from his "friends". He only works at the Department of Death so that he one day can earn his own double-N ticket and move on to the next world. But when he one day seemingly makes a mistake and causes a client named Mercedes Colomar to think she doesn't deserve a double-N ticket he is filled remorse and sets out to find her, facing countless dangers and obstacles just to repent for his mistake. His new noble pursuit causes him to develop a slight hero-complex, wanting to save as many people on his journey as he can, even if it seems impossible. His devotion to Mercedes eventually leads to the two of them becoming romantically involved. Unlike many high-society skeletons, Manny doesn't believe demons are lower life-forms, as evidenced by his close relation-ship with his friend Glottis. Manny treats Glottis like an equal(most of the time) and Glottis in return is fiercely loyal to him.
