Chick the Cherub is a child who once lived on the Isle of Phreex and later became Head Booleywag to King John Dough of Hiland and Loland. The child has fair hair, falling in fleecy waves to its shoulders, but not particularly groomed. It has delicate features, rosy cheeks, and round blue eyes. For clothing, Chick wears white garments like pyjamas, with wide flowing sleeves and legs, and sandals to protect the feet. Chick claims to be six years old, but has been making that claim for several years. Chick lived in a third-floor apartment in the Royal Palace of Phreex.
