'''Ignatus pattern''' power armours are individuality crafted for representatives of the [[Inquisition|Holy Inquisition]]. Not as durable as Adeptus Astartes power armours, the Ignatus-pattern is of a better design than those sold to [[noble]]s, [[Rogue Trader]]s and other agents of the Imperium.{{Fn|17}}
Ignatus power armour is made of thick [[Ceramiteceramite]] armour plates and incorporated electro-muscles so the user can even use the power armour in the first place. The optional helmet protects the wearer from toxic gasses, allows the wearer to breathe underwater, and even survive in vacuum as long as the suit has power. The helmet has photo-visors so the user can see in the dark and an automatically closing visor renders blind-grenades useless against the wearer. These devices can be controlled by speaking to the armour’s [[machine spirit]], or the wearer can commune with his armour directly if they have a cerebral plug, [[MIU]], or similar device. It is also possible to use a backpack for the suit which acts as external power-source. With this power-backpack the wearer can use his armour for five continuous days in battle conditions.{{Fn|17}}
Because the Inquisition often has to deal with [[Ruinous Powers]] and other heretical forces, Ignatus suits are commonly inlaid with [[Hexagrammic Wards|hexagrammic wards]].{{Fn|17}}
