Manuel is an anthropomorphic praying mantis with a slim, lightweight build and distinctly insectoid proportions. His body is primarily a bright, lively green, with slightly darker and lighter gradients that give him a smooth, natural look. His torso is narrow with subtle segmented shaping along the chest and abdomen, and small dark markings appear along his sides and limbs, adding contrast to his otherwise vibrant coloring. His head features the classic praying mantis shape — triangular with a small mouth and very large, rounded eyes that dominate his face. His eyes are glossy black with bright cyan-blue outer coloring, giving them a shiny, expressive appearance. Two long, thin antennae extend upward from the top of his head, each ending in flat, leaf-like shapes that enhance his insect-like silhouette. His arms resemble traditional mantis forelegs, curved and blade-like with jagged inner edges that suggest sharpness. They are large compared to his body and give him a distinctive predatory look, while still appearing stylized and friendly rather than threatening. His lower body includes long, slender legs that split into multiple thin, finger-like segments at the feet, reinforcing his insect anatomy. Behind him extends a thick, tapering abdomen with soft gradient shading and small spotted details near the base. Manuel wears a cozy oversized hoodie in a bright pink tone with darker magenta accents. The hoodie has a large front design patterned after a Nintendo Switch, featuring the recognizable split controller layout with a heart icon on the screen. Small heart details and exclamation mark shapes decorate the chest area above the design, giving the outfit a playful and expressive style. The sleeves appear slightly bulky, fitting around his large mantis arms, and the hood bunches around his neck. He also wears loose, dark magenta pants that widen toward the bottom, covering most of his legs but leaving his segmented insect feet visible. 7 feet tall. Manuel is shy and he loves to play video games. He gets embarrassed easily and is an absolute sweetheart.
