Tinella Nosa, also known as Tiny Nose, is a recurring character in The Owl House. She is one of Warden Wrath's prisoners, whom Luz freed in "A Lying Witch and a Warden" after she was imprisoned for her belief in conspiracy theories.
Appearance[]
Tinella Nosa is a small round white demon with large blueish eyes within yellowish sclera, a rather prominent nose, and long red hair. She also has two off white buck teeth. She is effectively just a head with no body, with her limbs coming directly out of her head.
Personality[]
Tinella is eager and an unconventional thinker, believing in conspiracy theories. She is shown to be helpful, as she tried helping Hooty figure out what King is. Tinella is also shown to be ferocious in battle, as she did not hold back when having a sparring match with King. She speaks in rhotacism, where she replaces every "r" sound with "w".
Background[]
Tinella Nosa is one of the inmates of the Conformatorium and was locked up by Warden Wrath due to her belief in conspiracy theories. She, along with Katya and the Eye-Eating Prisoner, manage to break out with the help of Luz Noceda and defeat Warden Wrath.[2]
During a rain storm, she pushes a rat out of its hole to take shelter from the boiling rain.[3]
Tinella attends the Covention, helping Mason demonstrate the power glyphs for the Construction Coven before “flying off walls” and causing havoc.[4]
When the Moonlight Conjuring is almost upon the isles, she misses an egg and watches it roll away.
Shortly after King writes Ruler's Reach, she writes her own book and shows it off to Piniet, greatly impressing the publisher.
Tinella watches as the Bards Against the Throne face off against Coven Scouts and, a few days later, helps Hooty figure out what kind of demon King is.
After the date for the Day of Unity is announced, it is revealed Tinella works for Tibbles, masquerading as the author of The Good Witch Azura books. Amity Blight and Luz find her and chase her to the place where the scammers are working out of. The scam ended up being unprofitable since Amity was the only one buying the books.
At some point after the Day of Unity, Tinella managed to escape being turned into a puppet by the Collector and went into hiding.
When Belos possesses the Titan, she is kicked out of a rat hole and runs away.
Four years later, she celebrates Luz's belated quinceañera.
Powers and abilities[]
- Writing: In "Sense and Insensitivity", Tinella Nosa has successfully written a story so good that after reading it, Piniet insists that she must let him publish it.
- Magic: As a bipedal demon, she can use magic just like witches through a magical bile sac attached to the heart.
- Fire magic: She can summon fire by forming a spell circle as demonstrated in the episodes "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door" and "Any Sport in a Storm".
- Strength: In "Sense and Insensitivity", she is seen knocking over two strong body guards when entering a room and trampling one without breaking her stride.

Trivia[]
- She has a form of rhotacism, as she pronounces every "r" and "l" as a "w", and writes in this manner as well.
- Her design sheet refers to her as "Tiny Nose". Later, in the episode "Hooty's Moving Hassle", her Penstagram account lists her as TIN3NOZ.
- In "Any Sport in a Storm", it is revealed her full name is Tinella Nosa, meaning that Tiny Nose is just a nickname.
- It is revealed in "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door", that Tiny Nose is a biped demon, a kind of demon that has a bile sac like witches, which allows her to cast spell circles.
- In the same episode, it is revealed that she is friends with Hooty, and she also reveals that she graduated from medical school.
- She appears in the unreleased animated short "The Dollhouse". She owns a doll stand and tries to sell her "definitely not" cursed dolls, saying she will do anything to get rid of them. The short was never aired, as it was deemed too scary for TV.[5]
