Amon

Amon (アモン) is a character in the Seraph of the End series. He is one of the humanoid seraphs that were seen to have existed in the prehistorical past. Within a seraph civilization, Amon was committed to Sika Madu's project to return them to paradise.

Appearance
He appears as an adolescent male, yet with seraph features of pointed ears, fangs, and two large feathered wings. For clothing, Amon wears a robed based attire such as what would be a hooded cloak around him. The light-colored hood that has a dark interior is worn not over his head but loose around his shoulders.

His short black hair would not be an obvious indication of who he resembles, however the light-colored hairband feature of his hair might. It is the order of his reveal among other humanoid seraphs that indicates Amon's link to Ashera Tepes, who would become the demon named Asuramaru in later ages.

Personality
Seen smiling, Amon was the only seraph aside from Bael and Paimon to speak enthusiastically at Sika Madu's announcement. He takes a leadership role in reporting updates to Sika Madu. While shocked at the sight of his comrades being killed, Amon could compose himself enough to make his way to Sika Madu as a meteor shower was set on destroying the city he was in.

History
Around in prehistorical times, Amon was positioned on the Sol System First Satellite Kingdom that was a classification for Earth. When dinosaurs were alive and humans had not evolved yet, Amon was within a seraph civilization with cloaked members of his kind, where Homunculi were also present. In a gathering of seraphs, Amon would have heard Sika Madu announce that among the satellite kingdoms a tower had been built taller than all others. After the display of photons by Sika Madu, it was declared that they were return to paradise which was said to be on the Sun where a God resided.

In contrast to other seraphs on the ground, Amon appeared physically close to Sika Madu from his raised vantage point. Once Bael and Paimon had spoken, Amon was a part of the group that were thanked for working so hard for so long. An extension of fire from a cloaked seraph coincided with Amon being seen, along with Belial, then Astaroth, and Marbas too. Amon would also have Bathin, with Naberius near him, as well as Raum, and Orobas too.

For the project to return them to paradise, Amon addressed Sika Madu as majesty and told him not to worry. Amon spoke for others that they will follow Sika Madu wherever he leads.

"Don't worry, majesty! We'll follow you wherever you lead!"

- Keen on following Sika Madu from their civilization on Earth back to paradise.

Some time after Bael and Paimon had passed away, Amon headed to the location of their graves to speak with Sika Madu who was there. Joined by Astaroth and Bathin, he had arrived there with Naberius and Raum as well. Speaking for his Majesty, he spoke for the group and updated him that all was in readiness. The tower of Babel was reported to now hold the necessary power to return them all to paradise.

"All is in readiness. The tower holds the necessary power to return us to paradise."

- Approaching Sika Madu among graves of angels to update him on the progress of their project.

Hearing Sika Madu state that so many had died and was there any point to them returning without them, Amon glanced to a grave marker with Belial's name on it nearby. Listening as Naberius and Astaroth expressed their keenness to return to paradise, Amon heard Sika Madu give the order for them to pass the word to everyone that they return tomorrow.

Outside the seraph civilization, Amon walked infront of Astaroth as the spectre of a colossal homunculus and the darkened halos of what were light appear in Space. Regarding the scene, Amon asks what is that.

By then, there was a colossal ball of light that had been formed by seraphs who have spoken of a taboo being broken. After a punishment was said to be being dispensed, Amon regarded the sight with apprehension. Where Raum and Naberius were unsure of the situation, Amon alone had his Majesty in mind and asks aloud what did Sika Madu do.

From his location Amon may not have been aware that a humanoid angel had generated it, but the shadows of the rain of fire are over him as Amon looks up to the incoming destruction. Appearing stunned, Amon is pushed out of imminent harm's way by Naberius. After witnessing Naberius being struck by a meteor, Amon is left shocked.

As the streaks of fire shower over the seraph civilization, Amon remains on his knees as he processes what happened to Naberius. Only able to speak single words of what and why, Amon's attention is brought to Bathin calling him. Focusing in her direction and the lightning bolt in the distance that Bathin is pointing to, Amon is directed to go to his Majesty now.

Where Bathin was unable to finish her sentence of saving his Majesty, Amon shields himself from the meteor strike that ends her life. Shocked in a different manner at the sight of Bathin's arm, Amon recovers enough to fly into the air.

Attempting to shield his face from the descending fire streaks, Amon is affected from above as his right wing is partially struck off. Reacting with pain, Amon falls to the ground. Breathing, Amon stands and focuses on his Majesty.

Having ran to the base of the light being blasted into Sika Madu, he has noticed him there and Amon calls in alarm to ask whether his Majesty is okay. Alerting him that everyone died, Amon reveals to Sika Madu that all the other angels were struck down and he asks what they are to do.

"Ah! Majesty! Are you okay?! Everyone died! All the other angels were struck down! What do we do?!"

- Amon reaches where Sika Madu is being attacked and reveals the status of the other named humanoid angels he was with.

His wings blown from his body, Amon perishes after being struck in the head by lightning. Seemingly one of the last angels to be murdered, it is stated by seraphs that the perished angel's souls are bound to Earth.

Story
That Amon existed at all was a revelation to be learned via accessing memories. Amon along with other human appearing seraphs were observed by Yu and Mika who were using demon based powers to look into the past. It was discussed by Yu and Mika how the angels in the memory including Amon looked familiar. While Bael resembling Urd, and Paimon looking like Saitō was picked up on, in the moment Yu did not comment on Amon appearing like Asuramaru.

Sika Madu
Afforded the position of being in close proximity to the King of Earth, he referred to Sika Madu as Majesty. Apparently having worked to a collective goal of returning to paradise, it may be inferred that Amon had assisted Sika Madu in projects such as the Tower of Babel. Although he did not appear worried at all, Amon happily gave Sika Madu encouragement that he should not worry.

Viewing a foreboding sphere of light made by seraphs, Amon knew enough about Sika Madu to suspect that his activities may have factored into its appearance. Even after losing one of his wings, Amon continued to proceed to where Sika Madu was weathering a column of burning light. Seeking him out as the means of ending their ruin, Amon asks if he is okay before revealing to Sika Madu that everyone else has died. Amon asks him what they are to do.

Belial
Where Amon resembles Asuramaru, he is beside Belial, who resembles Asuramaru's sister Krul Tepes of later ages. While he notes her grave, Amon does not comment on it.

Astaroth
Another human appearing angel, Amon stands in close proximity to him.

Naberius
His life is saved by Neberius after being pushed to safety from him. Witnessing him perish, Amon is left shocked at the scene.

Bathin
When the city was weathering the destruction of meteor fire, Amon was called to by Bathin to reach Sika Madu as their best means of surviving it. Seeing her demise, Amon would heed Bathin's words and head for where Sika Madu was.

Raum
As angels were passing away, Amon was with Raum among others as they heard they were to return to paradise together.

Marbas
Another angel of prominence, Amon was similar to Marbas in that they were both part of the group that Sika Madu appeared to trust more than others.

Orobas
Amon's known connection with Orobas was similar to that of Marbas, they were seen close together but not interacting directly.

Bael
Where Bael was of the two angels seen to be particularly close to Sika Madu, he would be a member of the same group as him.

Paimon
While Paimon was felt to be Sika Madu's favorite servant, after his passing it would be Amon who would speak in a leadership capacity to Sika Madu.

Unnamed Angel
The city Amon lived in would be ended by a humanoid angel after being viewed as one of Sika Madu's followers whose souls were to be consigned to Hell. In making his way through a devastating meteor shower, it would appear that Amon was to be allowed to reach Sika Madu's location by this angel.

Seraphs
It would seem that among the many cloaked seraphs within the seraph civilization that Amon could assume their form before changing to be more akin to a human. Where ranks may have been a feature of seraph society, Amon had an elevated one from the masses. Amon's life would be ended by a lightning strike directed by a small group of cloaked seraphs who wielded trumpets.

Quotes
"Majesty... What did you do?"

- Deducing correctly that Sika Madu's actions are linked to the seraphs appearing with the intent to punish a taboo being broken.

Trivia

 * Amon, also spelt as Aamon as a name is one used for a demon. In real world demonology based works, Amon is often a prominent demon prince. Like other seraphs, Amon shares the fact that they all have demon names.
 * Given the fire that appeared out of their heads, and the harmless embers around him upon his reveal, it is possible that a transformation took place where one of the indistinguishable cloaked seraphs formed into Amon as he appears like a human.
