Summery[]
The Adeptus Custodes, known as the Legio Custodes before the Horus Heresy, is the Imperial Adeptus responsible for guarding the Imperial Palace and the physical body of the Emperor of Mankind. It is an elite cadre of genetically-engineered transhuman warriors who are even more potent in combat than the Adeptus Astartes. They are to the Space Marines as the Emperor is to His Primarchs, and it is rumored that they were created using the Master of Mankind's own genecode.

Power Stats[]
DC: Dwarf Star: (likely Solar System) The strength of the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, Trajann Valoris is said to currently be the strongest and deadliest warrior in the entire Imperium of Man, beneath only the reborn Primarch Roboute Guilliman himself. Unknown, but far higher: Custodes' Dreadnoughts are likewise far superior to regular Dreadnoughts, but to what extent is unknown. Large Island, likely far higher: An Adeptus Custodes' Terminator Armor is far more powerful than the Terminator Armor of a Space Marine, and carries much greater weaponry. Large Island: Considering they are superior to the standard Space Marine, 1,000 Custodes were capable of destroying Gharkhul Blackfang's Ork WAAAGH which had overwhelmed three Space Marine armies, killing 100,000 Orks and losing only 3 of their own.
Durability: Dwarf Star: (likely Solar System) The strength of the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, Trajann Valoris should scales to Primarchs. Unknown, but far higher: Superior to regular Dreadnoughts which can shrug off the strongest Plasma Weapons. Large Island, likely far higher: As above their Auramite Armour as regular Terminator plate is above Astartes' Power Armour. Can survive the explosions of Macro-cannon shells. Large Island: Custodes' Auramite Armour is far more durable than Astartes' Terminator Armor, which can endure high-end Plasma and Melta Weaponry.

Massively FTL+ Combat & Reaction Speed: Trajann Valoris' speed and reactions are close to that of a Primarch. Massively Hypersonic to FTL Combat Speed & Reactions: Even the weakest Custodes have reactions far faster than that of Marines, and average Custodes can react and process information in less than a Microsecond, and skilled Custodes should undoubtedly have faster reactions than experienced Marines who can react in a nanosecond. Subsonic: Custodes in Terminator Armor are considered as fast as a Space Marine. Subsonic+: Custodes Movement Speed which are much faster than Astartes.
Strengths/Pros[]
They are considers the greatest fighting force ever to be deployed by the Imperium of Man and the greatest of the Emperor's creations with his own Geneseeds. Considering that they are superior versions of the Space Marines, they would have all the skills of a marine and more with the best training and wargear that they possess.
Weaknesses/Flaws[]
None notable, however, considering they swore to protect the Imperial Palace and the Emperor of Mankind, it would be unlikely that they would travel to other locations in the Galaxy. The only time they do travel is with the Emperor (when he was still alive)
