Revision as of 03:13, 19 March 2011
Reality alteration is the result of a spell or ritual in which the very nature of a dimension is altered, affecting timespace as well as the memories and perceptions of a dimension's inhabitants. Only beings with a hightened sense of self-awareness, like Adam, or beings "outside reality", like the mentally-ill, are capable of perceiving such changes.
Examples

- In 2000, Jonathan Levinson performed an Augmentation Spell in order to make himself more popular. As a result, he became the best of everything, the ideal man. He became a seductor, author, actor, inventor, musician, military consultant and demon hunter. The spell, however, created an opposing force of evil, everyone's nightmare.
- Months later, monks of the Order of Dagon performed a reality alteration to give human form to The Key, effectively creating Dawn Summers. They also altered reality, as well as the memories of the Slayer, her family and friends, as well as all others who have ever been associated with Buffy Summers, to make Dawn fit into this new reality as if she had been naturally born.
- In 2001, Skip altered reality so that Cordelia Chase had become a famous and successful actress instead of a member of Angel Investigations. In this reality, Wesley Wyndam-Pryce had lost an arm due to a Kungai demon incident, and Allen Francis Doyle had passed his visions on to Angel, who, because of the stress of the power and the absence of Cordelia's humanizing influence, was driven insane.
- In 2002, Jasmine performed a spell to remove every record regarding the Beast, as well as wipe any memories of him, from this reality. The only person unaffected was Angelus, who, having been cursed, no longer technically existed.
- In 2003, the demon Cyvus Vail, acting on behalf of Wolfram & Hart, led a team of sorcerers and wizards in order give Connor, son of Angel, a new, normal life with a human family, and removing every memory related to him from the memories of the Angel Investigations staff.
