Amon is an interesting character; very chariismatic, very skillful in fighting, and ironically is the only one of the Equalists who knows how to energy bend. His story about the spirits choosing him and giving him the power is an obvious lie that he has made up so that he can be the only one with the power to energy bend. Notice he has not taught any of the others to do so; it makes it so he doesn't have to teach anyone. It also solidifies him before his followers as the true leader of the revolution.

I rather enjoy the way the writers have used his mask; fits into Amon's story about what happened to him as a child, and also hides his identity which is obviously a mystery to be discovered and is surely to shock us all once we find out, because I'm quite sure its going to be someone very important, but definitely no one from The Last Airbender, but definitely someone related. I do not believe it is Sokka and Suki's son. For one, I don't see Sokka living on a farm with Sukki being that both were warriors and probably were fairly involved in Republic City's foundational structure as a society since they were important figures in bringing down the Fire Lord with Aang. Only person that we know of that moved out of Republic City are Katara and Zuko--Katara moving back to the South Pole, and Zuko traveling the world.

You can rule out Aang's son Bumi because I doubt even at an elderly aged Aang couldn't handle some thug, undisciplined, firebender.

What is interesting is Amon's clothing; His clothing is most certainly inspired by the fire nation, that is evident. I don't know exactly what to make of his mask, but that clothing is most certainly fire nation. Not sure what to make of that dude.
