Crom was a program that originally worked as a compound interest program for a Savings & Loan, but was captured by the MCP and forced to play video games on the Game Grid because he believed in the Users. He became friends with Ram and continually fought in gladiator games until he met up with Kevin Flynn in the Ring Game. Crom accidentally falls into a gap on the platform he was standing on and Flynn realizes that he is about to die. It is Flynn's turn to throw the ball (and ultimately kill Crom), but he doesn't want to. Sark, who is watching the game in his carrier, screams at Flynn to finish the game. Flynn doesn't to kill Crom, but Sark presses a button that removes Crom's platform. Crom falls down the endless chasm and derezzes.
It is implied that prior to Flynn's arrival, Crom developed some adjustment to the athletic functions of a gamer. Before entering the cell block with Ram, Crom commented to a guard that when he goes out to check T-Bill rates, he gets out of breath.
Crom is very pragmatic in his opinion of the users, maintaining that if there were no users than how did he get written. It contrasts Rom's spiritual nature. Crom's User is a S&L full branch manager named Mr. Henderson.
