Michele Manfredi

Michele Manfredi (ミケーレ・マンフレディ, Mikēre Manfuredi) was the Grand Master of the Holy Order of Michael, and a former member of the Knights of the Round, once holding the position of the Knight of Two.

Character Outline
Manfredi was one of the few Britannians that did not discriminate against non-Britannians; in fact, he considered Shin Hyuga Shing, an Eleven adopted by a Britannian family, as close to him as any brother, and apparently took an interest in those with oriental backgrounds. As his subordinates are known for their boldness as knights, it is possible that Manfredi was also a bold person.

He was a member of the Knights of the Round in the past, likely succeeding Marianne vi Britannia as the Knight of Two. Manfredi commissioned the construction of his personal Knightmare Frame, the Sagramore, shortly before he left the Rounds, as its name was later changed to Vercingetorix while still in development when he left them out of his loyalty to Augusta Henry Highland, the Grand Duke of Velaines, and transfered to Euro Britannia to become the head of the Holy Order of Michael.

Character History
Manfredi committed suicide when his trusted subordinate, Shin, whom he viewed as his successor as Grand Master of the Holy Order of Michael, used his Geass by commanding him to "Take a trip."

Later on, while Shin was imagining his family and friend's ghosts, Manfredi appeared and Shin expressed his desire to join him in the afterlife.
