Warlock Dowling

"Nanny says living things are only fit to be ground under my heels, Brother Francis."

"The gardener says I must be kind and nice to everybody, even Sister Slug, and not ever destroy the world."

Warlock Dowling is a human that is mistaken to be the Antichrist by Aziraphale and Crowley. In actuality, he is the misplaced son of Deirdre and Arthur Young thanks to a mix-up by the Chattering Nuns of St Beryl's and Crowley.

Background
Unknowingly adopted by Harriet and Thaddeus Dowling, Warlock was raised in an Winfield House the official residence of the United States Ambassador. Harriet and Thaddeus had originally planned for him to be name him Thaddeus, but Harriet changed it to Warlock, after it was suggested by the Nuns, to spite her husband who was working instead of at her side. Warlock was emotionally neglected by his parents, his father who is constantly working, and his mother who takes care of the family's image instead of Warlock. He's only shown to be in the company of both parents, when the attention of the media is on them.

Crowley, disguised as Nanny Ashtoreth, often sang dark lullabies to lull Warlock to sleep when he was younger. Nanny Ashtoreth, Crowley, worked to preparing Warlock to take over the world, and to "crush his enemies beneath his heel," while Brother Francis, Aziraphale, worked to guide Warlock to the side of light. An attempt that seemed to cancel the other out. As Warlock ended up a normal grumpy teenager.

"In the Beginning"
At the age of five, Crowley disguised as Nanny Ashtoreth and Aziraphale disguised as Brother Francis to influence him to be normal and avert the imminent apocalypse. On Warlock's eleventh birthday it was revealed that he wasn't the Antichrist when the Hellhound never appeared.

"Saturday Morning Funtime"
Warlock arrived in the “The plains of Maggido” with his parents. Where he meets Hastur who was expecting him to start the apocalypse. However, after Hastur realizes that Warlock does not have the hellhound with him and receiving the response of “You smell like poo” from Warlock when asked if he heard voices. Hastur realized that Crowley has fooled him into thinking the wrong child was the antichrist.

Personality
Despite being heavily influenced by two beings who attempted to sway him to do evil or good, Warlock ends up being relatively normal. Warlock doesn't flinch at the sight of Hastur, instead appears rather bored at the sight of the demon.

He is said to be good at math by his tutors, enjoys baseball, stamp collecting, banana flavored bubblegum, comics, cartoons, and his B.M.X bike.
