Manipular was a Forerunner title given to adolescents. These young members of society typically followed their families' lineage going into their particular rate. As Manipulars had not yet made the mutation to a first-form, they were identified as "Form Zero" in their names. Manipulars formed divisional groups known as Maniples.
