Patton Misnarge

''This article is for the Rance series character. For the Mamatoto character, see Patton Misnarge (Mamatoto).''

The Prince of Helman, one of the major countries in The Continent. As the son between Helman's previous emperor and one of his many concubines, he had a challenging childhood. Due to his mother's status, he had to work hard to prove himself worthy of being the successor. For a while, he was the favored successor as the emperor's only male heir, but the situation changed when the emperor's righteous wife--Empress Pamela Helman--gave birth to Siera Helman. The nation becomes divided on who the successor should be (Patton faction and Siera faction). Ultimately Siera faction wins (thanks to Siera's real father--Prime Minister Stessel Romanov), and supporting Patton becomes treason.

Shortly after Patton was born, his mother died mysteriously, so he grew up under the care of Hanty Kalar.

Appearances
In Rance 3 he leads an invasion against Leazas for Helman's glory under Siera faction's directions with the aid of dark lords, but the invasion is stopped by Rance. After this failure he was banished from Helman. He goes into hiding with Hanty Kalar. Most of Helman thinks that Patton died during the failed invasion.

In Rance IV's ending, he becomes reunited with Patton faction supporters—Freak Paraffin and Hubert Lipton—with Hanty Kalar's help.

Around this time after the failed Leazas invasion and before Rance 6, he trains hard to become stronger (Naguri Makuri Tower and Nise Naguri Makuri Tower). He discovers that he has more aptitude for hand-to-hand fighting than for swords and shields.

In Rance 6, he was on the run from Helman assassins and teamed up with Rance for the Zeth rebellion.

Patton is confirmed as a character in Rance IX, where he will be a guard/meatshield type of unit.

Patton is a character that can be summoned to Mamatoto in Widenyo, despite the fact that there is another Prince named Patton existing in that same world.

In Kichikuou Rance, Patton leads a rebellion against Helman and tries to make himself ruler of Helman.
