"What can this old man do for you?"

- Crowley

Crowley was discovered dwelling in the Cave of the Past at Qlon Temple, where he expressed surprise at being discovered. He agreed to be recruited by the Toran Liberation Army, stating that he'd like to enjoy the sunshine.

Clues to Crowley's age and power come from his statement of the amount of runes embedded in his body. He is also referenced in texts as "great and ancient" as well as the discoverer of rune unites. It is said that while he aided the Liberation Army, he only used a fraction of his power doing so.

Following the fall of the Gate Rune War, Crowley returned to the caverns, despising the world.
