* [http://masterarrowhead.tumblr.com/post/21546778935/hawkfeather-atla-annotated-energybending-a This tumblr post] explains one theory as to how he's doing it and why it might not be real.
* Which may explain his actions when he {{spoiler|didn't take Korra's bending away. Maybe he knew he really couldn't, or maybe he can, just not to the Avatar, and so he settled for psychologically destroying her instead, which would remove her as a threat without exposing himself as a fraud.}}
** His whole speech about {{spoiler|taking away her bending making her a martyr}} is clearly bunk; surely he's already got a [[Zero
*** Yeah, he's already the bad guy to benders, but if he takes away the bending of someone who isn't out extorting hardworking businessmen, then he might lose ''a lot'' of support from the people who casually support him or only kind of agree with him. And then there's the fact that he probably wants to make ''all'' non-benders support his anti-bending cause and taking bending away from the avatar would definitely not win him any new support. She would be a martyr because it's not all black and white and not everyone's firmly on one team or another.
*** But Amon sees the situation as black-and-white, even though it isn't. He wants to remove the powers of ''all'' benders, not just criminals, because he thinks bending powers are inherently unfair and evil (and also because he's kind of an egomaniac); he made this intention pretty clear at the rally, so he's not trying to make anyone think he's just a vigilante hunting down benders who abuse their powers. It may be true that {{spoiler|stealing the Avatar's powers}} would drive this point home a little better, but it would also prove his power beyond any doubt, remove a potentially serious threat, and probably convince a lot of non-benders to join his cause to avoid ending up on the losing side.
Line 141:
== Amon will be the [[Evil Counterpart]] to Ozai ==
Ozai was inactive throughout much of the first series; Amon will be far more hands-on. Ozai was a [[Complete Monster]] that ''tried'' to be a good father; Amon will be a [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney)|Frollo]]-esque [[Complete Monster]], with [[Alternative Character Interpretation]] to give him reasons (but not excuses) for his atrocities. Ozai was [[Authority Equals Asskicking|frighteningly powerful]]; Amon will be [[The Dreaded|disturbingly threatening]], outmatching Azula and Combustion Man for ''Avatar's'' default [[Hero
* This doesn't make Amon the [[Evil Counterpart]] of Ozai, but [[Eviler Than Thou]].
** [[Beyond the Impossible|How can anybody be more eviler than Ozai?]]
Line 251:
== Amon will be a [[Hero
Almost every other ''Avatar'' villain has, so he shouldn't be any different.
Line 461:
* Alternately, attempting to de-bend Korra inadvertently triggers the Avatar State... [[Person of Mass Destruction|with predictable consequences]]. And Amon gets an unpleasant reminder of the nature of the forces he's playing around with.
== At some point, Amon will take over Shiro Shinobi's role as announcer on the [["Previously On..."]] segments. ==
Based soley on his tendency to hijack radio broadcasts.
** Possibly Episode 7 because Shiro was knocked out the episode prior?
