Imperium Portal

The Captain-General is the rank given to the commander of the Adeptus Custodes, the elite personal bodyguards of the Emperor who dwell within the Imperial Palace on Terra.¹ As the highest authority within the Custodes, the Captain-General determines who may have access to the Emperor's body upon the Golden Throne and is the chief of security within the Imperial Palace. These two roles make the Captain-General of the Custodes an influential figure and often he is a member of the High Lords of Terra.
