I Have 7 Categories That Amon's Identity Would At The Very Least Probably Not Fall Under.

We know several things about Amon that prove he isn't anyone who falls in a number of categories. Now if you want to ignore this because you want to theorize it anyways despite it probably being wrong, or for whatever reason, that is your decision. Just know that if your theory on Amon's identity does fall into any of these categories, that theory probably won't turn out to be true. So I'm going to save everyone here who doesn't ignore this a lot of time on Amon theories. 1-6 are absolute, while 7 is only probable. The guidelines:

1. He is not a character from ATLA, nor is he descended from them.

2. He is a non bender, and therefore is not any bending character.

3. He is a male, and therefore cannot be any female character.

4. He cannot be Hiroshi because Hiroshi is fat. Amon is very fit, and Hiroshi's mega gut would betray him if he tried to pretend to be Amon. This does not just go for Hiroshi, but anyone who err.. isn't exactly fit.

5. He is an adult. He cannot be any child characters.

6. He is fairly tall in stature. He cannot be anyone who is short.

7. What little is known of his appearance suggests he has pale skin and yellow eyes. Although that is not 100% proven, especially for his eye color which may also be white. But anyone who doesn't have those traits is less likely to be him.

That eliminates a lot. To recap:

We know Amon is a non bender male. We know he is fairly tall, fit, and fully grown. He probably has pale skin and yellow or white eyes. And we know he is almost certainly not anyone from ATLA or descended from them. There.

We now have a rough profile of who Amon is, so all of you detectives don't have to waste your time investigating the other stuff. Or you can choose to ignore it. But again, just know that if your suspect doesn't fit that profile there is a very good chance it will be wrong.
