Even by the standards of Carron and Bale, Crull is a moron. Bale can at least keep himself in check as part of a greater plan, and Carron, though insane by even the most generous of standards, can understand that butt-fucking your own long-term objective is not, as we say, a good way to accomplish things. Foresight is not one of his strengths and how he managed to remain in charge of his warband for as long as he was will forevermore remain a mystery.
He's still better than Bale and Carron though. But absolute shit compared to the badassery of Araghast and Eliphas.

Blooood for da bloood gawd!

Oh, Crull. The Chaos Lord of Winter Assault and the leader of a World Eaters Warband therein, Crull is noted for being quite arguably the third-most one-dimensional Chaos Lord in Dawn of War's history, only barely edging out against Bale and Carron due to actually having something distantly resembling character development, a trait not shared by his contemporaries. Like every single Chaos Lord that isn't Araghast or Eliphas in the entire goddamned series, he's marked by awkward dialogue and hilariously easy-to-misinterpret quotes.

In spite of his apparent violent demeanor, apparent bloodthirstiness and routine screaming of "Blood for the Blood God!" Crull is not a terribly good Khornate. He has Sorcerers in his World Eaters warband, which makes the Blood God disappoint, and his use of tactics makes Abaddon look like Creed. His lines are often over-the-top hammy and exceptionally obnoxious, since he says little that isn't a threat, curse, or epithet. Suffice to say he comes across as an annoying shit who gets what he deserves when a much better character, Gorgutz da 'Ead Unter, kicks the living shit out of him and takes his skull for a trophy, following Crull's attempt to ham-handedly try to double-cross the warboss on Lorn V.

He's still better than Bale and Carron though. But absolute shit compared to the badassery of Araghast and Eliphas.

Eliphas the Inheritor would recover Crull's skull from Gorgutz' bosspole and use it to curry the Blood God's favor during the battle for Kronus, but would ultimately lose the battle for the planet and wind up in the warp for a while until a certain recipient of armlessness jokes decided to stop sulking for a few minutes and do something cool for a change and drag Eliphas' ass up out of the warp in Dawn of War II.

Nothing is known regarding what became of Crull's skull following this.

It's been rumored that Crull choose to follow Chaos (specifically Khorne) for the dental, and judging by his teeth they're pretty good shape for a Chaos Lord, being remarkably clean in spite of being jagged and pointy. It is believed that he taught Cultist-chan the importance of good oral hygiene, a theory that arose when some of the Dawn of War players noticed a sound similar to gargling when he yells out some of his more famous speeches.
