thepointisdolphinsCrowley is a demon, which means that temptation is pretty much his game. And considering he was once the snake that tempted Eve, he's pretty damn good at it. This means that, among other typical demon powers, he can sense desires and can also, if he sets his mind to it, tempt people by lowering their inhibitions and making them more open to suggestion.
Since this, moreso than his other demonic powers, can veer into godmodding/infomodding territory, here's a permissions post! Let me know the following in the comments:
*Can Crowley sense your character's desires? Note: these tend to be superficial desires and less so deep dark secret desires--though he can figure the latter out if he concentrates enough.
*Can Crowley tempt your character? This can be anything from tempting someone to break a diet to tempting them to infidelity.

Yes to both. She's just a normal human being, she doesn't have any particular resistance to supernatural influence. She's pretty well-adjusted, though, so her desires aren't especially juicy.
For Greed:
Sense away. Being Greed, he wants everything, it's not exactly difficult to tell. Psychologically, he's basically a huge seething mass of WANT. On the "deep dark secret" level, his truest desire is for friends, so go ahead and have Crowley notice that if he puts his mind to it.
Tempting him... would probably be possible under certain circumstances, but I think it would more usually be like trying to burn ash. He's always acting on his desires, and if there's one he's not indulging it's because he's busy with a stronger one. But, if for any reason he's resisting one, go ahead and tempt.
