Rock Troll Memory Magic is a type of magic featured on ABC's Once Upon a Time. It first appears in the sixth episode of the fourth season.
Rock Troll Memory Magic is based on Grand Pabbie's magic from Frozen.
Uses
Rock Troll Memory Magic users can remove, store and return other people's memories using magical purple rocks. It is not unique to Rock Trolls, as it can be learned and practiced by other wielders of magic, such as Ingrid. ("Family Business," "Smash the Mirror," "Shattered Sight")
Trivia
On-Screen Notes
- When Belle is looking up information on how to retrieve lost memories, she is reading a page about Rock Trolls. It says:[1]
Trolls are creatures who are said to be formidable
telepaths and are said to ably employ subtle acts
of persuasion to bend others to their will.
Some earlier scolars [sic] even went so far as to
say that they have the ability to restore
memories that have been lost.
The Talismanic Adornments of
the Rock Troll
ᛏᚱᚩᛚᛚ ᚾᛖᚳᚳᛚᚪᚳᛖ*
Trolls can cast powerful enchantments – in particular spells used
to wrest someone's heart or mind.
They do this by the emanation of a magical frequency generated
through the crystals they wear about their body. The power of
this working is increased by their entire number acting
in unison.
The crystals made of andradite and peridot are worn by the
trolls also as protection and defense from the evil around
them including the machinations of men.

Production Notes
- In a deleted scene from "Shattered Sight," Ingrid uses Rock Troll memory magic on Dopey to make him forget that he's the owner of Any Given Sundae.
Props Notes
- The crystals used to take and restore memories are amethysts, which are believed to help people who suffer from a faulty memory.[2] ("Family Business," "Smash the Mirror," "Shattered Sight")
- During the first Dark Curse, where everyone is living in a haze and not remembering who they are, Henry has an amethyst on his bookshelf.[3] ("The Stable Boy")
- Another amethyst is sitting on a shelf in Mr. Gold's pawnshop.[4] ("An Apple Red as Blood" et al)
- An amethyst is also sitting on a table in one of the Storybrooke Elementary School classrooms.[5] ("Darkness on the Edge of Town")
