11. #11Emperor Belosconstant

    Keys: belos, emperor belos, The emperor

    Emperor Belos is the Emperor of the boiling isles. Originally a human named Philip Wittebane, he arrived in the Boiling Isles from Gravesfield, Connecticut during the Deadwardian Era (the mid-1600s in the Human Realm) in pursuit of his brother, Caleb, who was spirited away to the realm by the witch Evelyn. Keeping a written record of his experiences on the Boiling Isles, Philip endeavored to find a way to return to the Human Realm with Caleb, but he would eventually murder his own brother for falling in love with the witch. Due to the harrowing events emboldening his inherent intense hatred of witches and magic, Philip would then conspire to eliminate the Isles and its inhabitants as a whole in an attempt to save humanity from their supposed wickedness.

    In order to carry through with this plot, Philip would take on a new identity as a witch named Belos. He claimed to the witches that he had the ability to speak to the isle, that they were misusing magic by mixing it, and that he was the only one who had the right to do so, convincing them and creating a system of covens to restrict the witches' use of magic and knowledge, and those who resisted were declared "wild witches" who would face punishment. Sometime later he was named emperor of the islands, gaining the respect and devotion of all, unaware of his deception.

    In his younger human appearance, Philip is a lean, light-skinned man with a pointed nose and long, shoulder-length brown hair, kept in a ponytail, with several strands kept loose atop his scalp. He had a small chin and pale-blue eyes.

    During his trip to Eclipse Lake, Philip sports several short bristles on his chin, and over time, his hair grows down to his back. Further into his stay in the Boiling Isles, his appearance becomes scruffier and unkempt, later growing a beard.

    During the events of "Elsewhere and Elsewhen", Philip's nose is broken by Lilith Clawthorne, causing the nasal bridge to permanently become crooked and swollen. His right arm is also shown to be carved with several glyph symbols.

    In his later years, as Belos, he is an elderly man with a pale complexion, light-blue eyes, wrinkled lips, and long, rugged, ash-blond hair reaching past his shoulders. His ears are now pointed like a witch's ears, as a result of Philip physically cutting them into shape, with a notch on his left ear. Most prominently, he has a large basil-green scar, which was once the wound caused by Lilith, running across his face and down his neck, as a result of his prolonged consumption of palismen. The irises of Belos' eyes occasionally glow bright blue, which can remain visible through the shadowed eyeholes of his mask.[1]

    Whenever the consumed palismen essence begins to act up, Belos' body heavily destabilizes into a brown-and-green sludge-like substance that turns him into a deformed, skeletal creature with disproportionately long limbs that constantly drip sludge, accompanied by various blue eyes covering his body, and two horns that resemble those of his mask. The only human features he retains are his hair, which turns grey, his blue eyes, which now have black sclera, and crooked teeth.

12. #12Golden guard / Hunterconstant

    Keys: , golden guard, hunter, The golden guard

    Hunter, formerly known as the Golden Guard, was seen as an antagonist. He was the right-hand man of Emperor Belos and the former head of the Emperor's Coven when the Golden Guard. Hunter was presumed to be the nephew of Belos and, as such, was dedicated to his cause of ending all wild magic in the realm, but in reality, he is the latest version of the Golden Guard grimwalkers created by Belos to serve him faithfully in his mad quest to end all life in the Boiling Isles.

    After his promotion to head of the Emperor's Coven, the Golden Guard acts as the main enforcer for Emperor Belos and antagonist to the residents of the Owl House. However, a chance encounter with Luz Noceda and the meeting of a mysterious palisman named Flapjack, who chooses Hunter as his partner, gives Hunter a new perspective and a glimpse of life outside of the Emperor's Coven. This soon culminates with Hunter learning the truth of his origins. Upon this discovery, and realizing he can never return to his lifelong home, he abandons Belos and the Emperor's Coven and retreats to Hexside School of Magic and Demonics to evade the emperor's reach. There, he finds acquaintances in Hexside's students, and after coming to terms with his identity, Hunter makes it his goal to help them stand against Belos' plan to wipe out the Demon Realm.

    Hunter, like the many Golden Guards before him, was created with the likeness of Belos' late older brother, Caleb Wittebane, and Inner Belos states he is the closest to his likeness of any grimwalker Belos created.[7][9] He is a humanoid boy sharing the physical characteristics of a witch, such as pointed ears. He has a fair complexion, a slightly hooked nose, dark magenta eyes, thick black eyebrows, a gap between his front teeth, bags under his eyes, and ash-blond hair that is shaved below the top, with a long, jagged forelock. He has a notch on his left ear and scars on his right cheek, upper left arm, two overlapping on his right kneecap (forming an X-shape), and one on his left calf. The sigil of the Emperor's Coven is branded onto his right wrist. He is described as scrawny by Amity in "Eclipse Lake", although he has a larger build compared to characters like Luz, possibly because he is slightly older than them.

    He is described as looking sickly by Emira in "Labyrinth Runners", though this may have been a result of his living conditions at the time.

13. #13Luz Nocedaconstant

    Keys: luz noceda, luz

    Luz Noceda is an eager, teenage Afro-Latina human who accidentally stumbles upon a portal leading to the Boiling Isles. To prove herself as a witch, Luz begins learning magic under Eda Clawthorne's guidance, despite not having any magical abilities of her own through glyphs

    Luz is a thin, tan-skinned teenage Dominican-American[6] girl with golden-brown eyes and dark brown hair in a slightly outgrown pixie cut.[7] During her fight against Emperor Belos in "King's Tide", Luz suffers an injury that results in a scar through her left eyebrow. This scar stays with her for the duration of the show. Throughout her stay on Earth, her hair begins growing out, giving it a curlier appearance.

14. #14Eda Clawthorneconstant

    Keys: , the wild witch, The owl lady, Owl lady, Eda clawthorne, Eda

    Edalyn "Eda" Clawthorne is Luz's mentor and King's adoptive mother. She ran away from home when she was a teenager after being cursed by her older sister Lilith, a curse which causes her to turn into the owl beast. Eda eventually became the most-wanted criminal and the most powerful wild witch on the Boiling Isles until her curse ended up entirely incapacitating her magical ability.

    Eda is a tall woman in her mid-to-late 40s,[2] with ivory colored skin and a somewhat slender figure that forms into wide hips, typically when wearing her red dresses. She has pointed ears, orange claw-like nails, thin maroon lips, golden eyes and long, thick and layered hair colored in a few tones of gray. She also has a removable golden fang and an oval-shaped amber gem on her sternum, which helped indicate when her curse was getting worse by turning black.

15. #15Kingconstant

    Keys: King

    King Clawthorne is a young titan (initially believed to be a Demon) who is Eda's sidekick and later adoptive son, and Luz's best friend. Initially, he sought to restore his supposed title and glory as the "King of Demons", before he switched to trying to discover his family and reunite with them. However, it is later discovered that he is actually the last of the titan race, and the son of the Titan, whose remains form the Boiling Isles. This revelation gives King a new outlook on life, and after reflecting on himself, he comes to accept his identity, but doesn't let it define him. King's new goal is to protect those he cares about, namely from Emperor Belos and the Collector, the latter of whom aspires to acquire King's friendship by any means necessary.

    King is a young, bipedal titan with a small stature. He has slightly purplish dark gray fur, save for his stomach and the tip of his tail, which are mauve in color. He has short limbs, a round body and stomach, and a bushy, fox like tail. Each of his hands possess two triangular, bone-like claws with flat inner sides, acting as his fingers, as well as short, pointed thumbs. His feet are somewhat stumpy and have mauve metatarsal pads, with two more claws on the front of either foot acting as his toes.

    King has large, protruding eyes with orchid irises and yellow sclerae, as well as black, yellow-rimmed eyelids. He has slightly longer and shaggier fur around his cheeks, neck and nape. His inner mouth is light purple, with a long, darker purple tongue, as well as two lower canine teeth, which are the only visible teeth inside his mouth. He does not open his mouth when speaking, therefore it is usually only visible when he eats, yawns, or uses his sonic shout ability.

16. #16Magicconstant

    Keys: , Magic, glyphs, curses, spells

    Magic is a supernatural force present in the Boiling Isles and the Demon Realm as a whole.

    Magic, once invoked, has the ability to manipulate other natural forces. A spell, the most basic unit of magic, is an invocation that accomplishes a specific change. A spell can be simple or complex, depending on the degree of change the spell caster is attempting to accomplish.

    Magic is not known to be present in the Human Realm; other natural forces exist, but magic is the only force that appears to be controllable through will alone.

    Magic on the Boiling Isles is manipulated through a system of rituals. These rituals restrain and provide order and direction to what would ordinarily be a chaotic force. Witches invoke magic through the use of gestures, incantations, enchanted objects, potions, and elixirs. Witches require extensive education and training in order to master the system, allowing them to use magic effectively and safely. This training is accomplished at institutions such as Hexside and Glandus High. Students start training in magic at the kindergarten level and continue to develop their skills across the educational spectrum. As witches pursue their educations, they are guided down academic tracks leading to eventual coven membership and magic specialization.

    Bile sacs

    The most common source of magic used on the Boiling Isles, witches and demons can cast spells through a sac of magic bile attached to their hearts. Each bile sac contains different magic phlegms that can be mixed together to create different spells, and thanks to this natural magic reservoir, witches and biped demons can cast a variety of spells just by drawing a spell circle. Because bile sacs contain magic, bile sac users can continue to use magic even in places where there is no other natural source of magic present, such as the Human Realm. However, as the magic is coming from a biological medium, the emotions can be connected to magic. If the user is experiencing intense emotions, the effects are similar to adrenaline, where the stronger emotions make the magic stronger but more chaotic, to the point their magic becomes uncontrollable. Using magic while experiencing these strong emotions will cause the user's eyes to glow.

    It is implied by Eda and Hunter that ancient witches or other magickind lacked bile sacs.

    Glyph Magic

    An alternate form of magic manifests as that of symbols known as glyphs. Glyph magic originates from an ancient race known as titans. Each individual titan was capable of creating their own unique form of glyph magic, with The Boiling Isles' Titan's glyphs formerly being the only ones remaining after the eradication of the titan race, still functioning due to half-alive state and thus his remaining power. In the epilogue of "Watching and Dreaming", King finds out that he is also capable of making his own glyphs, discovering his own form of the light glyph.

    As a human, Luz Noceda lacks a bile sac and thus does not carry a natural reservoir of magical power within her. To compensate, she instead draws in the magic from the environment and the Titan through the use of his glyphs. The glyphs appeared to Luz in the environment but did not exist there naturally, and were instead placed by the Titan. As revealed in "Watching and Dreaming", the Titan only shows his magic to select individuals whom he favors, Luz being one of them. The Titan also implicitly deliberately hid his magic from Philip Wittebane for years.

    Currently, there are four confirmed glyphs: light, ice, plant, and fire. While it is implied that these are the only four possible glyphs, there are infinitely many ways to combine the existing glyphs to create more complex spells. However, complex spells require the glyphs to be arranged in specific patterns connected in a circular pattern by lines. Performing glyph magic effectively requires that both the glyph is drawn accurately enough and that the caster has specific intent for the glyph's action when they activate it. Accordingly, the larger the glyph, the larger effect the spell has.

    Staffs and wands

    Besides glyphs and bile sacs, witches can also use specific tools to aid in spellcasting. Palismen, and by extension, the staffs they turn into, contain their own magic source that is separate from the magic of a witch's bile sac. Therefore, powerless witches like Hunter or humans like Luz can cast spells using staffs. For younger witches, training wands can be used in casting more complex spells and, like staffs, can be used by powerless witches or humans.

    Artificial magic

    A relatively unknown source of magic used by Emperor Belos and Hunter, artificial magic seems to rely more on advanced scientific technology than natural sources. Belos was taught artificial magic by The Collector. It is notably effective against the magic-blocking witch's wool, suggesting that artificial magic is a separate force from natural magic. Artificial magic is primarily red and allows its user to perform powerful spells without the need for spell circles. However, in Hunter's case, artificial magic can only be channeled via technology-enhanced equipment, such as his staff; disarming Hunter of his staff will leave him unable to cast any spells.

17. #17Palismanconstant

    Keys: , palismen, Palisman

    A palisman (plural: palismen) is a sentient magical totem that sits at the top of a magic staff. They are usually made in the shape of an animal of some kind. A palisman contains a magical essence and harbors various magical properties, including the ability to switch between wooden and living forms at will.

    Palismen can bond to witches, humans, demons, and grimwalkers as a loyal companion, a powerful tool for channeling and amplifying their user's magic, and a method of flying transportation when in their wooden staff form. A palisman can also allow an individual with no innate magical ability, such as a human, to use magic, as the palisman has magic essence of its own that its bonded partner can utilize.

18. #18Coven system

    Keys: , Covens, coven system

    The Coven System was a system instituted on the Boiling Isles by Emperor Belos for categorizing magic into specific types called covens. Belos categorized them so in the far future he could initiate his plan to destroy the Boiling Isles. There were nine main covens with hundreds of other covens beneath them. The educational system trained young witches along scholastic tracks that prepared them for membership in their chosen coven.

    To the general public, the purpose of the covens' introduction was on the Titan's command, who communicated through Belos, and to protect the witches and demons from the "danger" of wild magic (which in actuality is simply magic in its natural state). However, these claims were later revealed to be nothing more than an intricate series of lies concocted by Belos, whose true identity was a human witch hunter from the Human Realm named Philip Wittebane, to earn the trust of the Boiling Isles, which paved the way for his plot of genocide of all magic-kind.

19. #19emperors covenconstant

    Keys: Emperors coven

    While not considered one of the "main nine" covens, the Emperor's Coven is considered to be the most prestigious and highly ranked coven in the coven system and its members serve as law enforcement on behalf of the emperor's will. Membership of the Emperor's Coven is made up of some of the most talented witches on the isles, and unlike other covens, those inducted into the Emperor's Coven retain all their magic.

20. #20abomination covenconstant

    Keys: Abominations, abomination coven

    The Abomination Coven focuses on the creation and utilization of purple ooze golems known as abominations. Witches in the Abomination Coven can create, summon, and control abominations to do their bidding, and more powerful witches can even use abomination matter to create constructs or even assume an abomination-based form. While stranded on earth, Amity was able to substitute mud for abomination goo. According to Willow Park, the abomination track has been noted for opening more opportunities for a witch's future.[10]

21. #21bard coven

    Keys: Bards, bard coven

    The Bard Coven focuses on manipulating the world around them using soundwaves. Bards can use sound to create a variety of effects, such as inducing sleepiness, taking control of witches listening to their music, creating small-scale storms, creating concussive or slashing shockwaves, and even changing the chemistry of liquids. However, some bard spells can be countered by wearing ear coverings. Though bards typically use musical instruments, it is also possible to use bard magic through whistling. As musicians, bard witches have been known to make public performances, making it a difficult, but not impossible track for those with stage fright.[6] Prejudice against bards has been noted due to incredulity that bard magic can be strong and useful compared to the other covens.[7]
