Hooded Figure (Theory?)

OK so this isn't TECHNICALLY going to be a theory book? But I want to try and figure out who the hooded figure might be just for the heck of it.

I went to the Google Doc with the list of VAs, and here are all the characters on that sheet plus some others that weren't on there

-Quinston

-Adam

-Ivy

-Kylie

-Michael

-Glenn

-Ebony

-Jax

-Reina

-Chase

-Hayden

-David (I'm going to assume he's a Cipher I never caught the name of whona)

-Kai

-Casey

-Connor

-Melissa

-Principal Laurens

-Sarah

-Scarlet Snow

-Melissa's Mom

-Melissa's Dad

-Quinston's Grandmother

-Quinston's Grandfather

-LuLu

-Ichiro

-Onii (she's the school officer RIGHT...?)

-Jin

-Kaya

-Joey

-Lucas

-Xana

-School officer's daughter (or the other way around)

-many other unnamed Magiclicas, Ciphers, and Speros

First, I'm going to remove the main characters and some others closest to them. They are the most developed, and none of them have shown any intention or reason to steal the White Stone. I'll also be taking out the other unreasonable ones (like the ones who are unconscious)

-Adam

-Kylie

-Michael

-Ebony

-Reina

-Hayden

-David (I'm going to assume that he's a Cipher I didn't catch the name of whoops)

-Casey

-Principal Laurens

-Sarah

-Melissa's Mom

-Melissa's Dad

-LuLu

-Ichiro

-Onii

-Jin

-Joey

-Lucas

-Xana

Next I will remove the Ciphers, because the hooded figure is a VERY powerful Magiclica and even if these characters were secretly Speros, I don't think that the types of magics and abilities shown of Speros (which I have noticed are a different style of magic than those of natural Magiclicas) are powerful enough or have the right type of magic to be able to pull off such feats that the hooded figure does.

-Adam

-Ebony

-Reina

-Hayden

-Casey

-Principal Laurens

-Sarah

-LuLu

-Ichiro

-Onii

-Jin

-Joey

-Xana

Now I'm going to remove all of the obvious choices. It would be really bland for the hooded figure to be someone we already know to be suspicious of. Mblohr in his episode 4 of Magiclicas Writer's Room with his interview of the hooded figure (which may or may not have inspired me to do this) found that the hooded figure wasn't going to be obvious. We need to guess the unexpected. I also want to point out specifically Xana, simply because in the interview the hooded figure's VA said they were surprised when they found out about their character's alter ego. Xana was the character that won #IWantToBeOnTheMagiclicas, so it wouldn't make sense for her and any other later-added VAs and characters to be the hooded figure.

-Reina

-Hayden

-Casey

-Principal Laurens 

-Sarah

-LuLu

-Onii

-Jin

-Joey

Next I'm going to eliminate the remaining students and younger people. The hooded figure would need a lot of time to practice their magic and plan their scheme.

-Principal Laurens 

-Sarah

-LuLu

Ok I think that's it. Wow ok I narrowed it down to three females despite the hooded figure having a male voice XD I disregarded that, however, because it's very possible that there is a voice changer involved. I've heard scenarios where they use a ominous male voice to throw watchers off more times than I'd like to admit that I've fallen for it... Therefore I disregarded the gender when eliminating people, but this final tally is a coincidence XD

Let me explain why I think it could be one of these three characters-

-Principal Laurens is because no one would really expect it. She seems kind of like a doofus and not quite having her priorities straight, but that's a fairly easy act to put up to throw people off your trail. She also has power and knowledge over the school, so if the White Stone is actually in Everston it would make sense for her to know where. However, she can't get to it because she ain't Melissa. It's also suspicious that the attack during the winter formal was in HER office and that she didn't report the attacks to the COM right away. Even with the Spero around, why didn't she report them right away? There wasn't really a reason not to. The only thing really missing here is a motive.

-Sarah is similar to Principal Laurens. Her actions in seeming very calm about all of this and knowing so much is sort of suspicious. If she IS the hooded figure though, I think she might have decent intentions. She's known to be a Magiclica-Cipher equality supporter. With the White Stone, she could make that equality happen. That's why she's kind and supportive to everyone, even if she is secretly a criminal.

-LuLu I specifically don't is the hooded figure, rather her alter ego//possesser, Kagae. LuLu doesn't seem to remember anything when she's acting strange, or at least as Kagae. It's possible that when she's disappeared from school and doesn't remember anything is when she's one of her other personas, and possibly the hooded figure. She at least has two other identities, as Kai once called her Misuki and Hayden called her Kagae. We don't really know which is the real identity, so it's possible LuLu herself doesn't know what is happening to her.

It's not to say that I haven't missed a detail about a character when making this theory, or that this is completely wrong entirely and the hooded figure is actually some obscure character not yet mentioned. Although from episode four of Magiclicas Writers Room, it doesn't sound like it. If anyone reads this and has something to add, feel free to let me know!
