Runes of Kof-Kol

The Runes of Kof-Kol is a spell used to erase people's memories.
==History==
===Full Moon Party at Kamar-Taj===
The Runes of Kof-Kol was cast by Doctor Strange in the aftermath of a full moon party held in Kamar-Taj, causing all sorcerers to forget about the event, including Wong.Spider-Man: No Way Home
===Multiversal Crisis===
====Peter Parker's Request====
In 2024, a video depicting Spider-Man allegedly murdering Mysterio during the Battle of London, as well as footage of Mysterio exposing Spider-Man's identity as Peter Parker was released by The Daily Bugle, turning his life into turmoil.
That fall, Parker, along with his friends, were not accepted to MIT due to the controversy. In order to fix this, Parker visited the New York Sanctum to ask for Doctor Strange's help.
Strange took Parker downstairs, where he cast the spell. Strange mentioned that the entire world was about to forget about Spider-Man's true identity, including him. Feeling confused and distressed, Parker requested for Strange to exclude his loved ones from the spell, leading the spell to become unstable. However, while the spell was only intended to affect their native universe, the reactivation of the connection between their timeline and the Multiverse caused the Runes of Kof-Kol's effect to reach infinite universes.How ‘Loki’ Led Us to the ‘Multiverse of Madness’
As a result, the spell caused individuals from other universes who knew of Spider-Man's true identity to be brought into theirs. Strange later shrunk and trapped the spell, before he kicked Parker out of the Sanctum for not attempting to plead his case with MIT first, and for interfering with the spell. Strange contained the spell in the Macchina di Kadavus.
====Multiversal Visitors====
As Spider-Man disrupted the spell, many visitors from different universes who knew Spider-Man was Peter Parker, including Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, Lizard, Sandman, Electro, Eddie Brock, Venom and two Spider-Men, were taken from their respective universes and brought into Strange and Parker's universe. Doctor Strange tasked Spider-Man with finding these visitors and enchanted his suit to be able to teleport them to an underground prison.
====Tear in the Universe====
During the Battle at Liberty Island, the Macchina di Kadavus was destroyed by Green Goblin and the original spell was unleashed, causing purple tears in reality showing bright white figures of various villains of Spider-Man from different universes. Doctor Strange initially attempted to close the rifts with his magic to prevent the beings from entering his universe, which was not enough. Instead, a second spell using the Runes was needed.
====Second Spell====
Since the original spell had been unleashed, recasting it without the modifications would not repair reality. Instead, a second spell was required, in which everyone who ever knew Peter Parker would forget him. As soon as Strange began to cast the spell, the tears in reality began to close.
As the second spell was cast, Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Lizard, Electro, Sandman, Eddie Brock, Venom and the Spider-Men were returned to their universes. Once the spell was finished, everyone in the world forgot about Peter Parker's existence, as well as his identity as Spider-Man. Those who knew Spider-Man would not forget him, as confirmed by Happy Hogan when he talked to Peter next to May Parker's grave. However, they would not know that Peter Parker is underneath the mask.
==Capabilities==
The Runes of Kof-Kol are capable of making the entire universe forget a certain person, thing, or event. It is possible to make certain people exempt, as Strange remembered the full moon party, and tried to make exceptions while he cast the first spell to make everyone forget Peter Parker was Spider-Man. The spell at its peak potency even has the ability to wipe any traces of an entity being known to even exist in a universe, as shown when Doctor Strange used the spell to erase Parker's identity and the memories associated with them, from all creatures alive. The spell can also erase the memory of the caster, as even Doctor Strange would forget Spider-Man's secret identity with the rest of the universe.
However, modifying the spell during casting is very dangerous and difficult. Due to the spell traveling the borders of the Multiverse to work, access to the Multiverse along with a modified spell can cause multiversal trespassers to enter into the universe of the spell-caster, as shown when Doctor Octopus, Electro, Green Goblin, Lizard, Sandman, Eddie Brock, Venom, and the alternate Spider-Men were transported away from their home universes.
