Luz Noceda

**Luz Noceda** (Sarah-Nicole Robles) is the main protagonist of *The Owl House*. She is an eager, teenage Latina human who accidentally stumbled upon a portal to the Boiling Isles in the Demon Realm, a dimension where magical creatures are real, and humans are despised and treated as lesser beings. In order to prove herself as a witch, Luz begins learning magic under Eda's guidance, despite not having magical abilities of her own. Luz is a fourteen-year-old Dominican-American girl with tan skin, purplish-brown/brownish-purple short hair that is usually styled in a pixie cut, and hazel eyes. When swapped with Eda, she resembles most of Eda's appearance and characteristics but with no wrinkles or fangs and brown eyes. Her clothing consists of a pair of ebony earrings, a short-sleeved half-white and half-indigo hoodie with cat ears attached to the hood, high-waisted jean shorts, dark grey capris leggings, and a pair of white loafers. When she is in nightwear, her pajamas consist of a grey sleeveless top, purple shorts with an orange moon and star, and white-and-indigo socks. When at Hexside, her school uniform has a green and purple stripe on her arms and blue and red on her legs. Luz is kind-hearted, outgoing, eccentric, geeky girl. She is eager to find her place in the world and be accepted for who she feels she truly is. She is seen as an outcast on Earth due to making herself seem strange and difficult to engage with by her peers, school staff and her own mother, leading to her having no friends besides imaginary ones or reptilians. Luz is determined to be who she wants to be regardless of the opposition she receives, even if said opposition has legitimate backing. She is proven to be remarkably headstrong, and her excessive determination and refusal to show conformity lead to her social life and school performance stagnating. This is translated to the Boiling Isles by way of disobeying Eda and getting into trouble. despite this, Luz is intelligent and surprisingly introspective when she allows herself the room to breathe, seen in quieter scenes, such as when showing Amity Blight how she can perform spells by drawing associated glyphs on paper. Despite being typically cheerful and good-natured, Luz knows when to draw the line, as shown after King insulted and discarded her ideas in the episode Sense and Insensitivity. Luz has also been shown to utter small phrases in Spanish when experiencing certain bouts of emotion. She is clever, creative and a quick thinker, capable of coming up with solutions to problems on the fly, but if she has too much on her mind she can be oblivious to things like Amity's crush on her. However, she is not entirely self-assured as she actually has underlying self-esteem issues mostly regarding school, calling herself a screw-up and suggesting she belongs in the trash. Luz does not tolerate when others take advantage of their positions in life, regularly standing up for herself, those who cannot do so themselves or inspiring them to as seen against the likes of Amity and Boscha. After Eda is captured and essentially sentenced to execution, Luz enters a state of despair-induced aggression capable of not only appearing to boost her magic, but even striking fear into veteran members of the Emperor's Coven such as Eda's sister Lilith Clawthorne and earning the admiration of Emperor Belos himself. Luz is Amity's girlfriend.
