Amazon is an aged Skypiean who once manned Heaven's Gate as its inspector, waving travelers through whether or not they could cover the entry toll. Years later she trades her old post for a ticket booth at Skypiea's amusement park, Wagomuland.
Standing barely over a meter tall, Amazon is a wizened old woman whose face carries deep folds of wrinkles. Purple hair sits atop her head tied into a pair of buns, her arms are spindly, and a pink tunic covers her frame. Like every native of her sky home, a set of tiny white wings sprouts from her back.
By the time two years have passed, she lets a portion of her hair fall loose rather than bundling all of it, and she has taken to wearing lipstick.
Amazon carries herself with an almost total lack of concern for events around her. She freely admits to the Straw Hats that fighting is not her trade, so anyone declining the toll is simply let through without resistance. Even a sudden crush of terrified people fleeing toward the lower seas fails to crack her composure. Yet that detachment has a sly edge: while she answers questions put to her, she pointedly omits the things that matter most, such as how the local currency known as Extol works and what awaits those who skip payment.
When Luffy's crew first reached the clouds, they found Heaven's Gate guarded by Amazon, who snapped a portrait of each of them using a Vision Dial. Taken aback by her wrinkled features, the pirates briefly assumed she was an angel. She laid out the rules for entering Skypiea and named a staggering toll of one billion Extol, the equivalent of one hundred thousand Belly, for every visitor. Once they confessed they could not afford it, she allowed them in anyway, never warning that doing so would brand them as outlaws.
The mass panic that followed, as Angel Island's people scrambled to escape to the seas below, briefly overwhelmed her, since the gate had never seen such crowds. She eventually boarded the evacuation boats and looked on as Skypiea suffered further ruin. Once Enel was beaten, she joined the festivities and shared a dance with Nami. Two years afterward, she had taken up a quieter job selling admission tickets at the newly opened Wagomuland park.

When I first decided to commit to watching One Piece seriously, I knew I was embarking on one of anime's longest and most beloved series. With over 100...

The transformation everyone knows, the follow-up question nobody would touch. Why we made a smooth R&B track about the golden glow Dragon Ball never talks about....
Amazon is an elderly Skypiean who once served as the inspector of Heaven's Gate, the entrance to Skypiea, waving travelers through regardless of whether they could pay the toll. Years later she takes a new job selling tickets at Skypiea's amusement park, Wagomuland.
Amazon told the Straw Hats that entering Skypiea required a toll of one billion Extol, equivalent to one hundred thousand Belly. When the crew said they could not pay, she let them in anyway without warning them that doing so would mark them as outlaws.
When the Straw Hats first arrived at Heaven's Gate, they briefly mistook Amazon for an angel, only to be taken aback once they saw her wrinkled, elderly features up close.
The mass panic of Angel Island's people scrambling to evacuate briefly overwhelmed Amazon, since the gate had never seen such crowds before. She eventually boarded the evacuation boats herself and watched Skypiea suffer further ruin.
Two years after Enel's defeat, Amazon has left her post at Heaven's Gate and taken a quieter job selling admission tickets at Skypiea's newly opened amusement park, Wagomuland.
