Biography

Chorozo protecting the infant Crowley

As a baby, Aleister Crowley was left in a forest, where Chorozo protected him for days on end, until he was found by a scholar, who became a surrogate grandfather.[1]

Chorozo stuck by Crowley through his life, with Crowley being the only person who could see them. Crowley would sometimes be mistaken as being talking to himself when speaking to Chorozo or people would dismiss Chorozo as being imaginary.[1]

Chorozo flew alongside Crowley as he climbed a rock structure to a flowery meadow on top, where a lot of life energy was being gathered. They tried gathering magic power up there that they could use to form some impressive magic. However an explosion like reaction occurred as they tried to gather too much. They returned to Graybeard afterwards, where Endymion scoffed at Crowley's theories on other worlds and summoning spirits. Crowley cited Chorozo as an example of such a spirit, but Endymion called them an "imaginary animal". Spoon tried to defend Crowley, but both he and Chorozo had fallen asleep at that point.[1]

Chorozo changes form

The next morning, Chorozo noticed a magic anomaly in the form of tadpole-like items and woke up Crowley. Accompanied by Endymion and Rilliona they went to the source of the anomaly at a dried-up spring. Crowley identified the magic power present as being from another world and attempted to contain it within a magic circle. However by drawing the tadpole-like items together, they merged and took the form of a spirit summoned from another world. The spirit engaged in battle with them and launched a magical blast at Crowley, Endymion, and Rilliona. However Chorozo flew in to intercept the blast and absorb all the otherworldly magic, causing the other spirit to disappear. It transformed Chorozo into a much larger darker being, before then reverting to their original form and collapsing into Crowley's hands.[1]

Chorozo became less lively following the transformation, spending less time hanging out with Crowley in favor of resting.[2]
