Adeptus Custodes

Warhammer 40,000 Adeptus Custodes Game News, Reviews, Editorials & Unboxings.

The Adeptus Custodes are a faction from UK-Based Games Workshop's Tabletop Wargame Warhammer 40,000. Renowned as The Custodian Guard,The Ten Thousand, but most commonly known as Custodians, are the guardians of the Imperial Palace and the Golden Throne, as well as being the personal bodyguard to the Emperor.

Due to the vast size of the Imperial Palace, the Adeptus Custodes always act as a defensive army. Together with the Sisters of Silence they represented the Talons of the Emperor as the right hand of the Emperor. For much of their history the Custodes rarely left the Imperial Palace and even more rarely left Terra. It is the Adeptus Custodes that decide who may enter the throne room of the Emperor, and when. Such is their authority in this matter that Space Marines and Inquisitors must kneel before them.

Custodians are the mightiest of mankind's warriors. They are to the Space Marines what those transhuman warriors are to common Guardsmen, an elevated elite whose raw strength and willpower are wholly insurmountable.
