―Wong
Wong is the current Sorcerer Supreme of the Masters of the Mystic Arts. When their former librarian was murdered by Kaecilius and the Zealots, Wong then became the highly protective keeper of all the ancient books when he met Stephen Strange, and assisted him in his studies. As Kaecilius attempted to use his power to bring Dormammu to Earth, Wong and the other Masters used their power to eventually defeat him, at the cost of Ancient One's death. With Kaecilius' conflict over, Wong joined Doctor Strange in protecting the New York Sanctum.
Wong stood with Strange and Iron Man when the Black Order attacked New York City in search of the Time Stone. After Strange was kidnapped by Ebony Maw, Wong was forced to remain behind in order to protect the Sanctum. When Strange perished along with half of the universe due to Thanos' Snap, Wong became the new Sorcerer Supreme. In 2023, Wong and the other Masters transported many of the revived Avengers and their allies to New York so that they could join the final battle against an alternate Thanos. By 2024, Wong was a regular fighter at the Golden Daggers Club in Macau, participating in cage matches where he met and befriended Abomination, whom he would return to the Damage Control Supermax Prison after their fights. Shortly after, he met Shang-Chi and Katy Chen in order to question them about the origins of the Ten Rings.
Later that year, Wong was informed that Wanda Maximoff was the prophesized Scarlet Witch and that she was hunting America Chavez, a teenager with the power to open portals across the Multiverse. Wong survived Scarlet Witch's siege of Kamar-Taj and informed her of the Darkhold's origins at Mount Wundagore in order to save the lives of the other Masters. Wong was able to elude an attempt on his life and later assisted a Dreamwalking Strange in fighting Scarlet Witch. After the battle, Wong took Chavez, who decided to stay in his universe, under his care as she began training in the Mystic Arts.
Target Employee
Wong began working as a Target Sales Associate in Kamar-Taj, Nepal. He worked there for nine years, before becoming a librarian for the Masters of the Mystic Arts and becoming a sorcerer himself, seeking knowledge, understanding and peace. He felt free to develop his mind and spent as much time as possible reading, including The Book of the Five.
―Wong to Doctor Strange
As a longtime student of the Ancient One and one of the most knowledgeable Masters of the Mystic Arts in Kamar-Taj, Wong is serious and unflinching when it comes to performing his duties, both as an instructor and later, a librarian of Kamar-Taj. After Kaecilius' betrayal, Wong gets more reluctant to trust others, and constantly puts up a stern appearance, to the point of threatening Doctor Strange when the latter was only trying to be friendly and make jokes when coming to borrow books. Despite being seemingly ignorant of contemporary pop culture, it is revealed that Wong actually enjoys his fair share of pop culture just like most are, but pretends to not be aware of it around others, and is less serious when others are not around. Like Karl Mordo, he has a great deal of respect for the Ancient One and the natural laws, but unlike the younger student, he is capable of moral flexibility and willing to bend said laws when the situation desperately calls for it, as shown when he approved of Strange's time-bending when confronting Dormammu. He has also shown more willingness to bend the law for his own convenience, as he helped Emil Blonsky, a dangerous criminal who nearly killed Hulk, out of a high-security prison in order to use him as training partner to become Sorcerer Supreme.
Although initially hostile to Strange, due to the latter's attempts to be funny and exceeding inquisitiveness, Wong has come to appreciate those traits as well as Strange's exceptional gift at the Mystic Arts, eventually becoming one of his strongest allies, and his surrogate tutor in the absence of the Ancient One. He was deadset against Strange using the Eye of Agamotto as it violates the laws of nature, but after seeing Strange use it for the benefit of mankind rather than abusing it, he decided to let Strange inherit it once he mastered its powers, but advised him not to wear it in plain sight until then as it is the vessel of an Infinity Stone. As time passed, Wong came to see Strange as his best friend as he trusts him, although he sometimes doesn't have enough faith in him as a sorcerer.
Even though Wong is evidently a very serious person, he is not completely without a sense of humor, as he laughed at Strange's remark about warnings coming after the spells upon the surviving Zealots’ transformations into Mindless Ones, which shocked Strange and Mordo. Wong does have a soft spot for younger children or teenager, as seen by his close relationship with America Chavez. Wong is also very loyal to his friends, as he incriminated himself in front of authorities to ensure that Emil Blonsky gained parole by admitting that he had aided in a prisoner escape. Upon Blonsky's return to prison, Wong once again broke the law to liberate Blonsky.
Powers
―Donny Blaze and Wong •Magic: Wong is one of the most powerful members of the Masters of the Mystic Arts, a highly skilled and experienced sorcerer. Wong possesses a vast knowledge of magic, as he is knowledgeable of many dangerous spells and relics that were forbidden to all other Masters of the Mystic Arts, such as the Eye of Agamotto and the Dark Dimension ritual. Following Doctor Strange's capture, Wong assumed the role of the New York Sanctum's Master sorcerer, and he later surpassed him as the Sorcerer Supreme, albeit on a technicality. As the Sorcerer Supreme, Wong possessed tremendous knowledge in magic. He knew that the Darkhold is a copy and where the original was written, Darkhold Castle. •Eldritch Magic: Wong is able to create, shape and manipulate Eldritch Magic, forming tangible constructs of energy, such as weapons or shields, as well as cast spells by writing specific formations with the fiery energy. He used this ability when Bruce Banner crashed into the New York Sanctum to summon his shield in case of emergency and when fighting Maw, he conjured the Shield of the Seraphim to block an entire city street to deflect several trees telekinetically hurled at him by Ebony Maw, and also conjured a larger shield in tandem with other sorcerers to provide cover from aerial fire during the Battle of Earth. During the Mount Wundagore battle, Wong conjured a cage of fiery energy to contain the Scarlet Witch during a short time while she was attacked by the Souls of the Damned. He is also capable of using the same fiery energy to form Eldritch Whips and a pair of Gossip Yuanyang Tomahawk to fight the demons conjured by Donny Blaze. •Spell Casting: Wong can cast spells by writing specific formations with the Eldritch Magic's fiery energy. As the librarian, he also knew exactly which spells and books that Stephen Strange should've read in order to practice. Wong casted several baguazhang crescent moon knives to attack Scarlet Witch. •Portal Creation: Using a Sling Ring, Wong is able to open portals that lead to different locations, gaining the ability to move across the material world and transport himself to other parts of the Multiverse. He can use this power offensively, as seen when he redirected Ebony Maw's telekinetically fashioned brick spikes back at him, or when he opened a portal to force Abomination to punch himself in the face. He quickly brought Doctor Strange and him around the corner to stop America Chavez from stealing Strange's Sling Ring. •Dimensional Travel: Using the same Sling Ring, Wong can travel between different dimensions of the Multiverse, crossing over different planes of existence or traveling across various forms of reality, with him most notably using it to defend against Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian's attack on Doctor Strange and himself. However, he cannot use the portal to get on top of Darkhold Castle because no sorcerer was meant to go up there. Wong is also capable of telekinetically moving the dimensional portals, and even transforming one of it into a vortex that absorbed the demons conjured by Donny Blaze. •Illusion Manipulation: While explaining the Infinity Stones to Bruce Banner and Tony Stark, Wong generated a holographic display of the cosmos and the stones by conjuring Eldritch Magic formations. •Conjuration: During the fight with Gargantos, after losing his sword, Wong was able to conjure another sword with the Eldritch Magic's energy. While the Elder Beasts looked to attack, Wong conjured up two swords to battle. Wong conjured a business card and also Donny Blaze's ball into his hand to later expelled it from his mouth. •Mirror Dimension Magic: After his training at Kamar-Taj, Wong is able to manipulate Mirror Dimension Magic. Wong is able to open portals to Mirror Dimension and trap people in there.
Abilities
•Master Martial Artist: Wong is a remarkably powerful fighter, as he was able to hold off the Zealots for a short period of time. Wong is also quite skilled in armed combat, with his main weapon of choice being the Wand of Watoomb and later blades attached to Eldritch Whips. Wong's combat skills even allow him to fight opponents much larger than himself, such as Abomination and Gargantos, using incredible martial arts moves to dodge the two creatures' blows. Wong was also able to fight multiple demons at once without problems. •Rope Dart Mastery: Wong is incredibly skilled at using a rope dart, being able to easily fight and wound Gargantos. While at the bottom of Mount Wundagore, Wong used his rope dart to attack to the top of the mountain and climb his way back up. He then impaled a Elder Beasts' throat and pulled him off the mountain. •Whip Mastery: Wong is a master of wielding Eldritch Whips. He was able to use a whip to rescue America Chavez from Gargantos before utilizing it as a weapon to battle the tentacled monster. •Expert Acrobat: Wong possesses exceptional athleticism that allowed him to evade most of Abomination's punches and kicks during their fight at the Golden Daggers Club. During the fight against Gargantos, Wong portrayed various flips and spins to evade the tentacled monster's attacks. •Expert Tactician: Wong lead the attack to defend the Hong Kong Sanctum from Kaecilius. However, his team was easily overpowered by the emerging Dark Dimension. He then led the battle against the Scarlet Witch to defend Kamar-Taj. He called on the London Master and Hong Kong Master to help in the battle. However, they were quickly overpowered by Maximoff. •Multilingualism: Wong is fluent in his native Mandarin, as well as English, Sanskrit, Spanish, and Cantonese throughout his tenure in Kamar-Taj.
Weapons
•Wand of Watoomb: During the Battle at the Hong Kong Sanctum, Wong chose this relic as his weapon to repel the invasion. It is a durable weapon and can be used to channel magic into it, therefore making it a powerful relic. •Swords: During the battle in New York against Gargantos, Wong uses a sword attached to an Eldritch Whip to fight the creature. After losing this sword, Wong conjured another sword with Eldritch Magic.
Other Equipment
•Sling Ring: A mystical object which enables the wearer to open a fiery portal to another location to allow instant transportation to any location the user desires. •Ten Rings: When Shang-Chi brought the rings to Kamar-Taj following the Battle of Ta Lo, Wong used magic to examine their features and capabilities, only to find they have no match in any known relic from Earth or other planets.
