}}Clockwork Cherubs were small, cartoonishly-designed cherub-like robots. They were capable of independent consciousness, although, barring defects, they could not disobey their core programming.
Clockwork Cherubs were invented in 1960 in the Prime Universe by a scientist to whom her creations referred as simply “the Creator”. They were given Fog Ships with interdimensional travel capacities, as well as a pocket universe to call their own, and given the task of journeying through all realities to stamp our hatred and replace it with (artificially-induced) universal love. The Clockwork Cherubs who fulfilled this mission were known as the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids. However, they were not the only Clockwork Cherubs in the universe; some, due to programming defects, gained the ability to break off from their programming and became renegades and reprobates travelling the Multiverse by themselves. (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)
Although winged, Clockwork Cherubs could not fly under their own power unless anti-gravity circuits were strapped to their person. Not every Cherub in the Crew had access to such devices, and indeed, some could be officially banned from owning one. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
