Amity Blight

**Amity Blight** (Mae Whitman) is a major supporting character of *The Owl House*. She is a prodigious young witch who attends Hexside School of Magic and Demonics. Although she was originally depicted as an antagonist, after bonding with Luz, Amity has become a better person, being able to stand up to her parents, regain her friendship with Willow, and become good friends with Luz, later her girlfriend. Amity is skinny, with pale skin, chin-length hair with a ponytail pulling the front hair out of her face, and bright golden eyes. Like most witches, she has pointy ears. Amity's hair is two-toned, comprised of shades of aquamarine with brown hair—her natural hair color—visible at the roots. Near the end of "Through the Looking Glass Ruins", Amity decides to dye her hair lilac, with brown hair visible at her temples. When attending school, Amity wears a gray tunic with a dark gray belt, cowl, and boots. As part of the Abomination track, her sleeves and leggings are a greyish-pink color. The rest of her attire includes wearing triangle-shaped black earrings and black nail polish. She has a star pin on her cowl, which shows that she is the Top Student. She wears dark grey, heeled boots, with a light grey top. When not attending school, Amity dresses in a black short sleeve dress with orchid leggings and black point shoes with golden crescent moon buckles. Around her neck, she wears an amulet with an orchid gemstone. Amity is described as bright and competitive. She attends magic school along with Willow, Gus, and (later) Luz, and is a part of the Abomination track. As the "Top Student" at Hexside, Amity is proud of her status as the best student in the entire school and goes as far as to use it as a bragging right. She looks down on other students who are not as successful as she is and teases them, as expressed greatly in her treatment of Willow in "I Was a Teenage Abomination". She does not take kindly to those who steal her spotlight and is somewhat the teacher's pet, seeing as how Principal Bump regards highly of her. However, she does have a sensitive side when her reputation is compromised. Her reasons for being the way she is because she wants to someday become a member of the Emperor's Coven, who only handpick the best of the best. In addition to enjoying reading to children at the Bonesborough Library as shown in "Lost in Language", further proof of Amity being kinder than she lets on are her accepting of Luz for being finally admitted it to Hexside and still cherished her friendship with Willow deep inside, despite being forced to sever it long ago for the sake of protecting the latter's future as a student of Hexside from her parents in "The First Day" and "Understanding Willow" respectively. The latter episode showed not only the extent of her selflessness but also the desire to make amends with her former best friend and disagreement with her parents' disdain towards the weak. She keeps this softer side concealed so as to not demonstrate weakness. Although she appears standoffish, Amity has a sense of honor and integrity, as she was shocked and embarrassed that her mentor, Lilith Clawthorne, made her cheat with a magic boost in her duel with Luz without Amity's knowledge and, since Eda did the same for Luz, who apologized to Amity. Amity called off the forever-oath she cast on Luz to allow her to continue her training to become a witch. This shows that for all her flaws, Amity wants to succeed based on her own effort and merit, and not rely on cheating or deception to do so. Amity is Luz's girlfriend.
