Celestial Digimon

The Celestial Digimon are a fictional group that appear in the Digimon media franchise. The group consists of three Mega level Angel digimon - Ophanimon, Seraphimon and Cherubimon.

Digimon Frontier
In Digimon Frontier, the three Celestial Digimon were the ones who took up the task of keeping the Digital World safe after Lucemon was defeated by the Ten Legendary Warriors. However, Cherubimon, corrupted by Lucemon, believed that Ophanimon and Seraphimon were plotting against him, so he led his followers against them. Seraphimon was defeated by Cherubimon after being taken by surprise, and Ophanimon surrendered. They were both sealed away, Seraphimon in the ceiling of his castle at the Forest Terminal, and Ophanimon in a cage of light in the Rose Morning Star.

When the human Digidestined, called by Ophanimon, arrived at the Digital World, Cherubimon sent his servants to confront them, in the hopes of taking their spirits. Meanwhile, Ophanimon had contacted the Digidestined and sent them to the Forest Terminal, where Seraphimon was being held. However, Cherubimon's servants, Mercurymon, Ranamon, Arbormon and Grumblemon, found them just as the children had managed to free Seraphimon. In his weakened state Seraphimon was defeated by Mercurymon, but the Digidestined managed to escape with his egg.

Ophanimon then called the children to the Rose Morning Star. Having defeated Cherubimon's servants, and with the addition of Koichi, the children arrived at the Rose Morning Star to confront Cherubimon. In the following battle, Cherubimon managed to steal their digivices, but not before Ophanimon was freed. She then tried to purify Cherubimon, but the darkness that had corrupted him was too strong, and she was forced to steal back the D-tectors and give them back to the children. She was also able to grant them the ability of Unified Spirit Evolution, but was then defeated by Cherubimon. With their new power, the children were able to defeat Cherubimon and purify him.

The Celestial Digimon were not seen again until Patamon, hatched from Seraphimon's egg, discovered the Digieggs of both Ophanimon and Cherubimon (on the Ophanimoon). Their newly hatched forms played a minor role in the eventual defeat of Lucemon.

Ophanimon

 * Voiced by Rika Fukami (Japan) and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (US).

Attacks
 * Sefirot Crystals: Throws ten mystical crystals (similar to Sakkakumon's shape) from her hands which cause her opponents to reel under the relentless assault.
 * Eden's Javelin: Shoots a holy energy from her javelin that destroy her enemies data.

Ophanimon is one of the two Mega digivolutions for Gatomon(the other being Magnadramon), her official Mega in Digimon Frontier. She is named after Ophan, one of a class of celestial beings described in the Book of Enoch. Ophanimon has eight golden wings and two smaller white ones which aid her when fighting evil. The Shining Javelin she wields in her right hand has the ability to purify almost any virus type Digimon. The Beauty's Golden Shield in her left hand and her teal-colored armor shield her from evil. This Digimon is known to have been the Great angel of "light".

As one of the three Angel Digimon chosen to govern the Digital World, Ophanimon was given the Spirits of Fire, Thunder and Ice. She was responsible for the nurturing of the Digital World, until Cherubimon was corrupted by Lucemon's darkness. Trapped in the villain's Castle of Darkness at Rose Morning Star ( known as the Venus Rose in the Japanese version ), she managed to summon many kids in Tokyo to take the Trailmon to the Digital World, where five became the Legendary Warriors. She was freed by the kids, only to sacrifice herself to get the D-Tectors back from Cherubimon. Using the last of her power, she upgraded both Takuya and Koji's D-Tectors so that, together, both of them could use all the spirits to become EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon. A short time later, after the DigiDestined ended up on the moon, Patamon found Ophanimon's Digi-Egg, which hatched into Salamon.

Seraphimon

 * Voiced by Jamieson Price (US)

Attacks 
 * Strike of the Seven Stars (Seven Heavens): Seraphimon fires seven great orbs of holy energy.
 * Hallowed Ascension (Ascension Hallow): Seraphimon calls down a powerful bolt of lightning.

Seraphimon is named after the seraphim, the highest rank of angels in the Christian angelic hierarchy. Like Ophanimon, he has eight golden wings, but they are more curved. His blue and silver armor is so strong that it can block most evil attacks.

Seraphimon was given the Spirits of Wind and Light, and was responsible for maintaining law and order in the Digital World. However, when Cherubimon was corrupted, Seraphimon was defeated and sealed away in his palace at the Forest Terminal. He was freed by the Digidestined, who were led there by Ophanimon, but he did not last long as he was easily defeated by Mercurymon in his weakened state. His Digiegg was protected by the Digidestined (namely Bokomon) and later played a part in allow Takuya and Koji to Fusion Evolve. It eventually hatched into a Patamon.

Cherubimon (known as Kerpymon in the movie) is the Mega form of Lopmon. He is one of the Three Celestial Digimon that preserve the balance of the Digital World. He slightly resembles an angel, and a jester. His name is from Cherubim (singular: Cherub), the second rank angel and one of a class of celestial beings described in the Book of Enoch.

Cherubimon is also able to gravitate objects - such as other Digimon - towards or away from him. He can also enlarge himself and he also has the power to reverse time.

One of the three angel Digimon chosen to govern the Digital World, Cherubimon was given the Spirits of Darkness, Steel, Water, Wood and Earth. He was responsible for protecting all knowledge and legends as well as chronicling all events in the Digital World until he began asking for Seraphimon to change some of the laws for Beast-type Digimon. But Cherubimon eventually started thinking neither Seraphimon or Ophanimon cared what he thought, more so when he saw them talking behind his back (though he misunderstood what they were talking about). Cherubimon's hatred soon consumed him, opening his heart to the darkness created by Lucemon. Transformed into an evil parody of himself, Cherubimon rallied others who shared his beliefs and declared war. He managed to defeat Seraphimon easily and imprisoned Ophanimon in his Castle of Darkness at Rose Venus Terminal. He also gave four of his Spirits to his elite forces, while giving the Spirit of Darkness to Koichi (whom he brainwashed). But once his Evil Warriors were defeated, he took on the kids himself. He was so powerful that Ophanimon had to upgrade both Takuya and Koji's D-Tectors so that, together, both of them could use all the spirits to become EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon. But even using all the data he collected to make himself invincible, he was finally defeated and purged of all his malice. A short time later, after the DigiDestined ended up on the Ophanimoon, Patamon found Cherubimon's Digi-Egg, which hatched into Lopmon. The spirit of the purified Cherubimon also made a short appearance just before the final battle with Lucemon.

He was originally in love with Ophanimon in the Frontier series. In the series, Zoe wonders if Cherubimon's love for Ophanimon was one of the reasons why he became corrupted.
