DNAmy

**Amy Hall**[1], better known as **DNAmy**, is a minor villain from the animated television show *Kim Possible*.
 Amy is the world's foremost engineer in genetics, with a special talent
 for gene-splicing. She is also an avid collector of Cuddle Buddies, a
beanie baby pastiche that generally consists of two different animals
combined into a single plush toy.

## Personality

Amy
 adores cute things and peppers her speech with little expressions that
would be cute if she was 4 instead of 40 (For instance, she refers to
people she dislikes as "meanies"). She is also extremely susceptible to
flattery and has had crushes on several men over the course of the
series.

She is not particularly villainous. Although her gene-splicing
experiments are ethically dubious at best, she generally has no
intention of doing anything evil with the monstrosities that she
creates.

DNAmy's favorite color is pink, which says much of what there is
to know about her. She is incessantly cheerful, has a tendency to be
flirtatious, and is attracted to anything that is cute or fluffy (as
seen in the second season episode "Partners", her secret weapon is a
gigantic dog). This personality makes her rather atypical compared to
the other villains in Kim Possible's world, although if asked, DNAmy
would most likely not categorize herself as a villain. After all, she
has no schemes or plans to take over the world. If anything, Amy could
be categorized as simply being a slave to her own insanity, as she is so
 focused on her obsessions that she'll do just about anything to get
what she wants.

## History

Amy
 is possibly the most dedicated "cuddler" (or Cuddle Buddy collector) in
 the world. After collecting every cuddle buddy ever made, she still
wasn't satisfied so she began splicing the DNA of real animals to
reflect the chimeric nature of the stuffed toys.
Amy Hall, known as DNAmy by her former colleagues, is a disgraced
geneticist who was shunned by the scientific community for her
unorthodox and unethical splicing experiments.

She was first encountered in the Season 1 episode "Downhill"
 by Ron and Mr. Barkin when they stumbled across her while searching for
 the Mount Middleton monster, which turned out to be one of her
creations. DNAmy took Ron and Mr. Barkin prisoner after their presence
near to her lair which threatened to expose experiments to the
authorities. She successfully melded Mr. Barkin with Rufus to create a
naked-molerat-man creature, before being defeated by Kim Possible. She
was then briefly referenced, though not explicitly named, in the episode
 "Monkey Fist Strikes", as the scientist who genetically altered the
villain Montgomery Fisk, so that he could become Lord Monkey Fist. (Based on a production order, this occurred prior to "Downhill").

DNAmy went underground for the rest of Season 1, reappearing in the Season 2 episode "Partners", in which she co-starred alongside Dr. Drakken,
 who sweet-talked her into creating a giant reptilian hybrid creature
with which to destroy Middleton as a prelude to taking over the world.
DNAmy's second cameo at the end of the episode "Oh Boyz", in which she
briefly appeared in the audience during a prison concert given by Señor
Senior Junior.

DNAmy's next appearance, originally scheduled to be her last, was
 2 episodes prior to the Season 3 finale when she kidnapped the Sensei
of the Yamaguchi Ninja School in Japan
 in order to attract the attention of fellow villain Monkey Fist with
whom she was infatuated. For much of the episode, she used the alias
"Gorilla Fist", her true identity was not revealed until the closing
scenes of the episode.

Her first appearance of Season 4 was in "Grande Size Me" (minus
her bio-engineered "Gorilla suit"), amongst a bunch of other villains at
 Jack Hench's attempt to sell off his latest invention. She later
appeared in "Homecoming Upset", where she made a surprise cameo in the
crowd during the homecoming game. Her last appearance was in
"Graduation" were appeared at Drakken's award ceremony, clearly not
happy for his success. She also appears during the credits with Adrena
Lynn admiring the statute form of Monkey Fist.

## Relationships

Amy smothers her animal-mutant creations with motherly affection like they're her children.

She has attached herself to several men over the course of the series. In her initial appearance in "Downhill", she falls for Steven Barkin and seems to think they have a future together even after she fuses his DNA with Rufus' (but they two are separated near the end of the episode).

Later, Dr. Drakken romances her so she'll help him use a
gene-splicing device he stole. Drakken is initially annoyed at her
"cute" persona but later seems to genuinely like her. When he confesses
his love for her, however, she lets him down gently and says that she's
already pledged to another (Lord Monkey Fist, whose hands and feet she
genetically altered).
