==Biography==
Needing to find a [[African Trust|cash machine]] with a video phone, Sadie Endesha entered a casino. The casino was being vandalized by the Crone and other looters. [[Vergil]] generated fake police sirens in an attempt to scare off the looters; the Crone, however, recognized the noise as a "neat little trick" and continued to loot the building.

The Crone took Sadie at gunpoint while prying open a cash machine. When a Covenant [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] landed outside, Sadie took cover, but the Crone continued to loot the machine. A [[Jiralhanae|Brute]] attacked, ripping the machine off the wall and pinning the Crone beneath it. Believing that the Brutes were after "her" money, the Crone attempted to defend it; she failed to fend off the attackers, and one of them executed her with a [[Type-52 Pistol|Mauler]].

==Personality==
The Crone was evidently a compulsive gambler who felt she was owed the money she lost by the casinos and that this justified her actions. She also called Sadie a "slut" despite apparently having never met her before, most probably because she was spouting inappropriate drivel in her maddened state.
