In the 1800s, Crowley worried that his and Aziraphale’s friendship would be discovered and asked for ‘insurance’ in the form of Holy Water from the angel. In the 1700s, Crowley rescued Aziraphale from being guillotined during the French Revolution after he was mistaken for an aristocrat. He did a coin toss with Aziraphale over who would go to Edinburgh, with Aziraphale going, Crowley used a miracle to make sure Hamlet would be a success since Aziraphale seemed to enjoy it. Though Aziraphale initially rejected this idea by the 1600s they had come to an arrangement whereby one of them would go if both had been sent to the same place and do both blessing and tempting.Īt the Globe Theatre, Crowley watched some of Shakespeare’s new play Hamlet remarking that it was too depressing. The demon pointed out that by doing their jobs in the same place they were neutralizing each other and suggested they stop bothering with their jobs and just report some things back to Head Office since it would only have the same effect. When Crowley asked what Jesus said to make everyone so mad, Aziraphale replied, "be kind to each other."Įight Years Later he visited a tavern in Rome after doing some tempting where he once again ran into Aziraphale.ĭuring the reign of King Arthur, Crowley posed as the Black Knight to cause unrest and disturbance in the peaceful time where he was eventually confronted by Aziraphale. He once more questioned God’s plan in having Jesus killed. He also tried to point out that one of the unicorns had run off but no one else noticed.Īt some point, Crowley met Jesus and showed him the Kingdoms of the world because, according to him, as a carpenter, Jesus didn’t have many travel prospects.Ĭrowley later changed his name from Crawley to Crowley sometime before Jesus’ death where he again bumped into Aziraphale. Crowley was amused by Aziraphale who sheltered him under his wing when it rained beginning a 6000 year long friendship between the pair.Ĭrowley later bumped into Aziraphale standing by Noah’s ark and was slightly put off by the coming Flood remarking it was something he though “his side” would be doing. Crowley met Aziraphale standing on the Wall of the Garden and wondered whether he had accidentally done the right thing by giving Adam and Eve the ability to know good from evil and reassured Aziraphale about the angel giving Adam his flaming sword stating that as an angel he wasn’t sure Aziraphale could actually do anything bad. He turned into a snake and tempted Adam and Eve to eat fruit from the Tree of Knowledge which resulted in them being thrown out of Eden - something Crowley thought was a bit of an overreaction on God’s part. It’s also implied that he joined Lucifer’s Rebellion because he was bored or Fell because he asked too many questions about the Great Plan.Īfter being cast into Hell with the other Fallen Angels, Crowley was told to go upstairs and cause problems.

Crowley states he didn’t so much as Fall as “saunter vaguely downwards” and that he didn’t mean to Fall he just “hung out with the wrong people”. Not much is known about Crowley before he Fell, though he does make a few references to his time as an angel. He was portrayed by David Tennant, who had played the Tenth Doctor in Doctor Who, and voices Scrooge McDuck in DuckTales 2017, Angus in Ferdinand, and Charles Darwin in The Pirates: Band of Misfits. He's the snake that tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden, naturally. He has snake eyes - and a penchant for designer sunglasses. He didn't so much fall from Heaven so much as saunter vaguely downwards.

He is one of the main characters in the book and miniseries like Aziraphale.
