Abstract: An amorphic association scheme has the property that any of its fusion is also an association scheme. In this paper we generalize the property to be amorphic to an arbitrary $C$-algebra, and prove that any amorphic $C$-algebra is determined up to isomorphism by the multiset of its diagonal structure constants and an additional integer equal $\pm 1$. We show that any amorphic $C$-algebra with rational structure constants is the fusion of an amorphic homogeneous $C$-algebra. As a special case of our results we obtain the well-known Ivanov's characterization of intersection numbers of amorphic association schemes.
