'''Solarite Weapons''' were potent [[Power Gauntlet]]s, [[Power Talon]]s , and [[Power Lance]]s, that were wielded by the [[Adeptus Custodes]], during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
==Description==
They were crafted for the elite of the [[Thunder Warriors]]{{Fn|1}} and were made in imitation of the ancient relics of [[Terra]]{{Fn|2}}. The Solarite [[Power Gauntlet]]s and [[Power Talon]]s were composed of near-irreplaceable artefact power coils, which energized their [[Disruption Field]] generators. They also had nigh-indestructible casings and blades, which were forged in furnaces recovered from the ancient '''Tempest Galleries''', near [[Terra]]'s molten core. While the '''Solarite Power Talons''' and [[Power Lance]]s were only used by the [[Adeptus Custodes]]{{Fn|1}}, the [[Imperial Fists]] had their own versions of the [[Solarite Power Gauntlet]]. Their casings for the Gauntlets were fashioned in weapon forges fed from the fires of the [[Phalanx]]'s vast plasma core{{Fn|2}} and millennia later, the Imperial Fists [[Chapter]] is reputed to still possess a [[Fists of Terra|few of the weapons]].{{Fn|3}}
