I think Amon is a spirit. Although people argue that he was blood bended a little bit, look at the anatomy of a creature. If a spirit must possess something, it must of blood in it in order to move or else its muscles wouldn't work and the brain won't function. But, the story of Amon is that his family was killed by fire benders. That means that spirit must be very old. The air benders were very wise mentally and spiritually and during the 100 years war, the air benders were totally wiped out. There could be a possibility that he could be a survivor of the massacre of air benders. So, Amon is just a body possessed by the spirit of a Air Bender. If you argue why isn't Amon isn't bending, either he is concealing it so that the truth isn't revealed or his body won't be able to handle air bending. As the the turtle said, "The one taking away the bending, his SPIRIT must be unbendable" (something like that. the turtle lion's voice was kinda muffled). So most likely, this character is someone we probably don't know. If the so technically, the avatar is capable of SPIRITbending. Not energy bending. Energy comes from chi. Chi blockers block the energy needed to bend. Chi is generated and developed. To take away another person's bending you must dwelve deeply within the person's spirit and take away it's bending. Since the avatar is capable of spirit bending, the avatar can remove the spirit out of the body of Amon. Also, about the blood bending, the spirit won't feel pain so it can easily resist blood bending.

Its either that or if you notice, Amon has always been twisting his thumb after taking someone's bending away. It could be and advance chi blocking move where he forces the body to produce chi large enough to live but small enough to disable bending. Where Amon places his thumb, its on a pressure point on the head a little bit above the unibrow. Could be the son of Zuko. Aang said he would kill Zuko if he went dark again. But since he doesn't believe in killing, he took his bending away. When Mai found out, she went to Ty Lee to teach Amon chi blocking for self defense. Chi blocking utilizes pressure points to force the body to temporarily to stop producing chi. Ty Lee might have found a pressure point to permanantly to reduce the amount of chi produced and unabled the person to stop bending.
