The mask is a plot device of some kind for the writers. Amon wears the mask bc he tells the truth and his face is burned or the mask is to hide his identity bc the audience would know he is a past character from the 1st series or someone with a secret identity in the current series.



I don't see any reason to assume this anymore than say Darth Vader being masked was. And there's no way Amon is wearing the mask because his face is burned; The most respected man on the planet has a severely burned face, to where I don't think Amon would be looked down on. He just uses that story to gain sympathy from his audience, especially since I think Firebenders still have a stereotype about them that continued after the War.

So you think the Mask is simply a mask, and when the time comes for it to come off, he will simply be just a guy? No burns, no big identity reveal that means anything for the story?
