Amity Hope Biography & Facts

Amity Blight is a fictional character in the Disney Channel series The Owl House. She is voiced by Mae Whitman. She has been well received by both critics and fans of the show, who praised her character development and Whitman's performance. Character Amity Blight is a 14-year-old inhabitant of the Boiling Isles, an archipelago located in the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm is a realm apart from the Human Realm, which can be accessed through the means of portals, or as shown in the series, a magical door. She has very pale, white skin, short hair and an undercut (which she has dyed both light green and purple throughout the series), yellow eyes, and usually wears black, long-sleeved blouse, red wine-colored pants, and black slip-on shoes while she is out of school. While at Hexside, she wears her chosen Track clothes, which include long, pink sleeves and socks, and a black uniform. She has a fighting style some have called "unorthodox". Terrace also said she considered Amity "more of a jock" than having a "punk aesthetic". Amity undergoes a major character development through the course of the series. She originally starts out as a bratty, entitled, hypocritical, and rude student in her first appearance, who belittles her peers (like Willow), due to her superior control and overall performance in Abomination magic. Her grades, coupled with the influence her family has over the school, meant she could be hardly touched by anyone and was beloved by her teachers. However, as the series progressed, it was revealed that Amity was not a standard bully she appeared to be; she has a complex trauma and a case of self-loathing from her toxic upbringing, including emotional abuse from her mother Odalia, emotional neglect from her father Alador, and bullying from her siblings Emira and Edric, despite the latters would later support her. Due to her mother's blackmailing, she was forced to put on a façade and act. In episodes from "Lost in Language" to "Understanding Willow," it was evident that Amity's harsh and cruel behavior was a defense mechanism and a way to cope with her childhood trauma, as well as her loneliness and misery. She never wanted to hurt Willow and that her actions towards her were all an act. Her superficial association with Boscha and her gang was also a result of her mother's pressure. Amity's desire for real friends and her longing for love and respect were evident throughout the series. She never considered Boscha and her gang as true friends and only hung out with them superficially because of her mother's pressure. Likewise, her enthusiasm for joining the Emperor's Coven was forced upon her by her mother, and she hoped to gain love and respect from her family through it. However, when Luz enters her life, Amity finally begins to come out of the shell that her mother forced her in, and Amity becomes a better person for it, regaining her friendship with Willow and eventually falling in love with Luz. This character shift is given a further visual signifier in the episode "Through the Looking Glass Ruins", when Amity's green hair—the color representative of the façade curated by Odalia—is re-dyed purple as a show of her newfound individuality. Whitman, Amity's voice actor, described Amity as complex, complicated, with issues, and "dealing with some stuff". She also noted that when Amity was with Luz, Amity tapped into her softer, "more vulnerable side". Creation On September 3, 2020, during an AMA on Reddit, Terrace stated that during the show's development, Amity had a different hairstyle, and that the look changed after the unaired, unanimated pilot, when she decided that the style used in the show would look "better for the character". LGBTQ+ representation On July 7, 2020, when responding to a fan who posted a still of Amity putting her hands on Luz's shoulder, from a promotion for the upcoming episode "Enchanting Grom Fright" on Twitter, Terrace said that there is no heterosexual explanation for the moment. On September 2, during a Reddit AMA, Dana Terrace confirmed that Amity is intended to be a lesbian and that Luz is bisexual. She also stated that the relationship between Amity and Luz would be explored in Season 2 and that Luz is "oblivious to some things in front of her," including Amity's crush on her. In the same AMA, Terrace stated that Luz was Amity's first crush and that she was thrilled to see people connect to the show's characters, like Luz and Amity. In October 2022, Amity's voice actor, Mae Whitman, said that voicing Amity gave her the bravery to come out as pansexual.
