Appearance
Cherubs are roughly the size of a human child. They have the bodies of animals, usually of sheep, lamb, bees or deer, and humans of infantile proportions, with pastel color schemes. Their eyes are shiny with pupils that tend to have a distinctly faded look, as opposed to being fully black, making them at once look bright and hearty, as well as somewhat ghostly and otherworldly. Cherubs have halos floating above their heads, usually small yet flight-capable wings sprouting from their backs, and they emit glowing auras.

Abilities

 * Flight: All Cherubs are capable of flight via their wings.
 * Weapon summoning: Cherubs can summon holy weapons at will.
 * Portal generation: Cherubs can open a gateway to travel between Heaven and Earth. However, cherubs who fail their responsibilities are unable to re-enter Heaven through a portal.

Trivia

 * Blitzo's comment of Cherubs being "God's table-scraps" of Heaven may imply the cherubs are in the lower hierarchical rankings of Heaven. While it may match the angelic hierarchy of Jewish texts, this may also be ironic, given the traditional [Christian] Cherubs were originally considered of quite high rank and closer to God than other angels, but second to Seraph angels.
 * In Abrahamic religion, Cherubs (or Cherubim) are one of the many attendants of God with varying roles and are entrusted with all sorts of important duties. The depicts the forms of Cherubs as rather terrifying, but awe-inspiring: they have four wings and four faces (one human face, one bull face on the left, one lion face on the right, and one eagle face), with straight feet that are flat like the soles of a calf, and the appearance of burning coals of fire while shining like the glow of burnished copper; with movements like brief flashes of lightning and the sound of their wings been like the sounds of rushing water, while been surrounded with lightning and torches of fire passing between them.
 * Contrary to their appearance in the Bible, Cherubs are popularly depicted as winged infants in Western media. This depiction was born from Western Renaissance Art using from Greek mythology in paintings that depicted Angels, which Cletus resembles.
 * Helluva Boss 's version of Cherubs draws more from the pop-culture version of the Angel as winged infants with "cute animal" themes mixed in. The biblical concept of the Cherubim was noted during the creation process, before it was decided to expand upon the pop-culture versions due to Helluva Boss being a cartoon and didn't have to strictly follow the Biblical depiction.
 * Other scripture-related animal themes were explored in development, such as lions and donkeys, the former being a reference to the passage, "". This included a scrapped cherub based on a lion that would have served as the parallel to Loona.
