Changes

Based on [[Terra]], Crowl along with his [[Interrogator]] Acolyte [[Luce Spinoza]] became entangled in a conspiracy involving the [[Emperor]] himself. While investigating a series of ritual murders linked to "The False Angel",{{Fn|1a}} Crowl discovered that a [[Radical]] faction of the [[Inquisition]] had brought [[Dark Eldar]] [[Haemonculi]] to [[Terra]] to repair the failing [[Golden Throne]]. The "False Angel" had in fact been a [[Imperial Guard]] veteran attempting to organize a militia to defend Terra's Underhives and was wrongly accused for the murders.{{Fn|1b}}

With the aid of the [[Custodes]] [[Navradaran]] Crowl was able to eventually confront the Dark Eldar, who had since escaped and begun committing ritual killings upon the Throneworld. Crowl was able to track down the Radicals led by Lord Inquisitor [[Adamara Rassilo]] and eventually the [[Xenos]] itself in the tunnels underneath the [[Sanctum Imperialis]]. Though he was initially overcome and tortured by the creature, Navradaran and his brethren were able to slay the xenos while Rassilo was brought to justice by the Custodes.{{Fn|2a}} Afterward Crowl continued to work to uncover the remaining heretics who would dare such an act.{{Fn|1c}}

Traumatized and ailing from his confrontation with the [[Xenos]] creature Crowl continued to investigate the heresy that had taken place. He eventually discovered that three members of the [[High Lords of Terra]] ([[Master of the Astronomican]] [[Leops Franck]], [[Fabricator-General]] [[Oud Oudia Raskian]], and [[Speaker for the Chartist Captains]] [[Kania Dhanda]]) had collaborated with Rassilo. Crowl confronted Franck inside the [[Hollow Mountain]] and condemned him a heretic. However the Master of the Astronomican used his formidable psychic powers to nearly kill the Inquisitor as the Hollow Mountain was damaged as [[Noctis Aeterna]] approached. Crowl was only saved thanks to the efforts of his assassin retinue member [[Niir Khazad]]. Crowl took from the Hollow Mountain a heretical text with [[Eldar]] Runes.{{Fn|2b}}

After the incident in the Astronomican, Crowl went missing despite attempts to find him by both Spinoza and [[Inquisitorial Representative]] [[Kleopatra Arx]]. Spinoza eventually recovers Crowl's Servo-Skull Gorgias, using it translate runes from the Eldar book recovered from the Astronomican to determine the Inquisitor's possible location.{{Fn|3a}} She and along with Revus and Khazad travel to [[Mars]], where the Mechanicum had apparently constructed a secret Webway Portal due to its dealings with the Dark Eldar.{{Fn|3b}} However the gate is instead located on [[Luna]], which itself is in the turmoil of [[Battle of Luna|the Thousand Sons invasion]].{{Fn|3c}} When the group encounters Crowl, he is with Custodian [[Navradaran]] and has become infused with Dark Eldar DNA due to his earlier interactions with the Haemonculus. The group then decide to enter the Webway and prevent further dealings between the Mechanicum and Dark Eldar.{{Fn|3d}}

Just as the deal is about to be finished, Crowl intervenes and explains to all parties that their Throne won't operate without a powerful psyker like the [[Emperor]], and this must mean the Xenos intend to create an abomination throne of the Master of Mankind. This supreme blasphemy immediately causes Navradaran to attack the Dark Eldar, and in the ensuing chaos the Custodes is seemingly lost. Crowl faces the Dark Eldar Haemonculus once more, stating that while the Xenos will do anything to survive Mankind will not. As the rest of Crowl's retinue are seemingly killed in sight of their escape from the Webway, the Inquisitor activates [[Dark Gate|a Dark Eldar device he stole]], which he can interface with due to his own transformation. Crowl along with the Haemonculus are teleported into a forbidden zone of the Webway, though the Inquisitor doubted he'd survive the process.{{Fn|3g}} Afterwards, Gorgias is seen on a distant [[Exodite World]].{{Fn|3h}}
