Aleister Crowley (Earth-Prime)

"Out there in the cosmos, in the great beyond, there's an unlimited source of power."

- Aleister Crowley

Aleister "Al" Crowley is a renowned warlock, Satanist, and alien enthusiast locked in a portrait in John Constantine's attic.

Search for the Fountain
"In 1939, I took a rather large dose and fell into a trance, where an extraterrestrial dictated the map to me. Pity he didn't speak English. I might've discovered where in the heavens the Fountain was hidden."

- Aleister on his past

For the most of his life, Crowley searched for the Fountain of Imperium and wrote the Book of the Law.

In 1939, Crowley took his magic-enhancing potion and fell into a trance. He then encountered an alien, who gave him a map to the Fountain of Imperium. However, the alien did not speak Englih and he was unable to accurately locate the Fountain, which was on Earth for the whole time.

Summoned by John Constantine
At some point, John Constantine summoned Crowley from Hell. After acquiring his required information on aliens, John locked Crowley in a portrait and banished him to his attic.

The Satanist's Apprentice
Later, Crowley approached Astra Logue when she attempted to search for valuable items in order to pay for bills. Crowley tempted Astra to teach her how to use the Permuto and gain power on Earth. Astra then brought the painting of Crowley and learned the basic level of the transformation spell. However, Crowley also taught her about how the spell could exchange positions of spirits, while Astra refused as it would endanger her safety. John then arrived back to the manor and argued with Crowley. Astra was annoyed by them and exchanged their positions. Crowley proceeded his lessons and taught Astra on more advanced levels of magic. She later realized that the spells are temporary while Crowley tempted her with more power.

While John attempted to wake Astra from the power, Crowley approached John and locked him to the attic. The satanist and the apprentice then forged the amulet for more power. Crowley asked Astra to acquire a living soul, as she asked her neighbor. However, she changed her mind at the last second. Crowley quickly interrupted and took the soul for himself, powering himself strong enough to withstand Astra's transformation spell. Crowley conjured a spell and sent the entire house into cartoon, turning Astra into a princess.

Crowley was disappointed by the fact that Astra was not a witch and fought her, teleporting himself and dodged her. Astra then summoned the Legends while they fought against Crowley. Unfortunately, they failed and Crowley locked them on the ground using his conjurations.

Hours later, Astra reproached Crowley with the Expulsion Spell and cleansed him of magic. Thanks to his amulet, Crowley was able to overpower the spell and transformed himself into a giant demonic monster. Eventually, Astra's spell was effective and restored Crowley back to his spiritual form, switching Crowley and John's positions back.

John then locked the portrait back to the attic, with Crowley tempting John with the Fountain of Imperium and John refusing quickly. Astra slowly entered and placed Crowley in a box, preventing him from tempting anymore people with power.
