==History==
Cherubs are [[Angel|angels of Heaven]] who are part of a lower order, colloquially known as "cupids." Like all angel classes, they are stronger than humans -- hence when [[Dean]] punches At one in the face, the cherub is unharmed, while Dean clutches his hand in pain. They greet people and other [[angel]]s by hugging them... Nobody likes it. There are point there were dozens of them stationed on Earth and they are who were responsible for marking locating humans deemed important enough by [[Heaven]] to make them fall in love, on instructions from [[Heaven]]. One important couple brought together by a cherub was [[John Winchester]] and [[Mary Campbell]]. Their marriage was "top priority," and the cherub met by [[Sam]] and Dean tells them that John and Mary couldn't stand one another at first.
While the angelic civil wars in Heaven raged, it appeared that the cupids stationed on Earth began to gradually lose contact with their superiors; the daily orders from Heaven of who to match together became fewer and fewer. It is assumed that once the council of angels took on leadership and brought order to Heaven once more, orders for the cherubs resumed on a daily basis.
==Characteristics==

Cherubs, like all [[angels]], require vessels to walk the Earth. They differentiate from other angels through their "bow and arrow"; while Cupid is typically depicted holding a physical bow and arrow, a cherub's bow and arrow appears as a tattoo on the palm of their [[vessel]]'s hand, allowing them to make connections between humans with a simple touch. Like all angel classes, they are stronger than humans -- hence when [[Dean]] punches one in the face, the cherub is unharmed, while Dean clutches his hand in pain. They greet people and other [[angel]]s by hugging them... Nobody likes it.
