The Obliviator Headquarters was a division of the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes, part of the British Ministry of Magic located on Level 3 of the Ministry Headquarters in London.
The Obliviator Headquarters was the main office for Obliviators, wizards who had the task of modifying the memories of Muggles if they witnessed incidents caused by magic.[2]
Description
Members of the Obliviator Headquarters were employed to modify the memories of Muggles who had, either unintentionally or otherwise, witnessed magic, the existence of the wizarding world, or magical beasts, beings and spirits.
They did so by using the Memory Charm, Obliviate. In this capacity, Obliviators were essential when it came to maintaining the International Statute of Secrecy. Some, but not all, Obliviators were also part of the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad.
History
During the 1990–1991 school year, Jacob's sibling would often interview a Muggle, who witnessed some aspects of the wizarding world including a cursed kettle and a dragon attack, with Alastor Moody in the Obliviator Headquarters as a part of the Ministry of Magic student programme, before Obliviators had to wipe the Muggle's memory.[3][4]
