Clockwork Cherubs were invented in 1960 in the [[Prime Universe]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Grand Multiverse Hotel (short story)|The Grand Multiverse Hotel]]'') in [[the Home City]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Interlude of Jenny Everywhere (novel)|The Interlude of Jenny Everywhere]]'') by a scientist to whom her creations referred as simply “[[Cupida Hartnell|the Creator]]”. They were given [[Fog Ship]]s with interdimensional travel capacities, as well as a [[Cupid Homeworld|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 Multiverse]]; some, due to programming defects, gained the ability to break off from their programming and became renegades and reprobates travelling the [[Multiverse]] by themselves.

In 2019, [[Madame Tarsa]] met two Cupids, [[Pessimist-242]] and [[Larrikin-1029]]. Fascinated with them, she tried to reverse-engineer them and created [[the Toy Cupid]], a model which she then intended to mass-produce and sell. Confident that the [[Cupid Parliament]] would not approve, the two “real” Cupids fought their way out of [[Madame Tarsa's Toybox]] and used her own half-brewed [[Love Potion]] to blow up Tarsa's work-desk, destroying the Toy Cupid prototype.
