Manticore onward

In “Onward,” the Manticore is the owner of a once-thriving tavern and adventure-themed restaurant known as the Manticore’s Tavern.

The main characters of the film, Ian and Barley Lightfoot, discover a magical quest that can potentially bring back their deceased father for a day. They seek out the Manticore to obtain information about the quest, but she initially refuses to help, as the quest is dangerous. However, after some persuasion and a rediscovery of her adventurous spirit, the Manticore decides to assist the brothers on their quest.

The Manticore is known for her humorous and dynamic personality, and she provides valuable guidance and support to Ian and Barley as they embark on their adventure. Her character is a symbol of rediscovering one’s sense of adventure and embracing change.
