The Adeptus Custodes never exceed ten thousand warriors at any given time. Guided by psychic divination and the intelligence gathered by shadowy agents, they strike down demagogues and warlords who might otherwise raise invasion forces against the heart of the Imperium. While they were created to defend the Throne World, the Adeptus Custodes have recognised that the most effective way to safeguard Terra is to take a proactive hand in the ongoing battle against Mankind’s innumerable foes. This gallery has several sections to it.10,000 years ago the Custodians were created by the Emperor as his companions and sworn bodyguards. Haven't looked at the Fantasy Forest books yet but they appear to be Endless Quest type books for very young readers. All of these books were similar to the Fighting Fantasy series, using dice to cast spells and combat foes, and were significantly more exciting than the Endless Quest books.Ĭrimson Crystal books were similar to Endless Quest books but only four exist, and they had these cool pictures that you put a red filter over to see hidden items and such. My favorite is #4, the Soulforge, outlining Raistlin's test in the Tower of High Sorcery. Then came the Super Endless Quest books, more commonly referred to as AD&D Adventure Gamebooks. As far as I know, there are 36 altogether, although the first 12 seem to be the most ubiquitous. They did cover a broad range of TSR worlds including D&D, Top Secret, Gamma World, Conan and a few more I can't remember probably. Aimed at younger readers, you are usually a kid in the story, with a wooden sword and pet shmoogie, and you must run past or trick Orcs, Goblins and Trolls so you can save the world in a hundred pages.
After a couple, they all start sounding the same though. These were the Harlequins of the D&D world - almost everyone's picked up at least one or two of these.
