Biography
Shapeshifting
In one universe, he had the typical relationship with Aziraphale. As a demon, he was capable of shape-shifting, something he often used to play mild pranks, but he rarely engaged in anything truly evil. Aziraphale briefly considered whether the living, breathing Sherlock Holmes who once appeared in his bookshop was Crowley playing a prank, but soon realised otherwise (PROSE: You've Been To Eden, I Perceive)
In Jenny Cornelius's world
In one universe, a certain demon dressed in all black and Jenny Cornelius were acquainted with each other through their mutual friend, though they both found the other’s presence awkward. He once tipped her off about a demonic incursion which was not the work of his people, having failed to reach the bookseller about it and reasoning that Jenny might be interested in getting involved on the grounds that “you're a busybody”. Doing so possibly saved the Earth, for which reason he was keen to keep his involvement confidential. (PROSE: Birds and Snakes)
Behind the scenes
Crowley is one of the major figures of the Good Omens novel and adaptations, with which You've Been To Eden, I Perceive was an unofficial crossover — although the continuity in which it takes place is not quite the setting of any of the official versions of the story, mixing and matching details from the book and the TV miniseries. The character was portrayed by Peter Serafinowicz in the 2014 radio drama adaption, and David Tennant in the 2019 live-action series.
