Adeptus, Adepta, or Adept is a title given to all servants of the Emperor, of all the departments of the Adeptus Terra. The title is much respected and Space Marines, Imperial Guard Commanders and some high ranking Imperial Guard members are entitled to use it also.^[1a] On Terra, the title separates the employed and settled servants of the Adeptus Terra, from the often destitute non-adept.^{[Needs Citation]} Non-adepts can gain the title by becoming menials.^[1b]

Adepta is the feminine High Gothic form of the title.^{[Needs Citation]}
