Lightning Claw - Notable Lightning Claws: Raven's Talons - The Raven's Talons are a pair of Lightning Claws which are said to have been personally crafted by the Primarch Corax on his homeworld of Deliverance after the Istvaan V Drop Site Massacre during the Horus Heresy. They are said to be unbreakable and to easily cut through any armour. Currently they are worn by Shadow Captain Kayvaan Shrike of the 3rd Company of the Raven Guard Chapter.Hunger and Slake - Tyberos the Red Wake is the First Captain and former Force Commander of the Carcharodons Space Marine Chapter during their unlooked-for and savage intervention in the Badab War. He is equipped with a pair of unique Power Weapons with which he has developed a murderous degree of skill. Named Hunger and Slake, each of these heavy gauntlet-like devices of uncertain origin combine barbed Power Blades and an inner maw fitted with mechanised Adamantium teeth. Their pattern and manufacture are unknown to the Tech-priests of Mars.Mercy and Forgiveness - This pair of murderous, Artificer-crafted Lightning Claws were favoured by the Night Lords Primarch Konrad Curze as his personal weapons. They were given the unusual names of Mercy and Forgiveness in a typical display of the Night Lords' grim sense of humor. However, what they were truly referred to by their master and owner remains, like so many other things about Curze, a mystery.Talon of Horus - The Talon of Horus is a large archaic Lightning Claw, fitted with an early custom-built Combi-Bolter that is currently wielded by Abaddon the Despoiler, the greatest Champion of Chaos, leader of the Black Legion and the current Warmaster of Chaos after he reclaimed it from the body of Horus himself at the end of the Horus Heresy. Abaddon currently uses the Talon as one of the primary emblems of his authority over the forces of Chaos. The weapon takes the form of a large silver Lightning Claw with a thumb blade and an integrated Combi-Bolter that runs from the wrist to the knuckles of the claw's gauntlet. The ancient Combi-Bolter is in essence two standard pattern bolters slaved to fire together. It is bulky and somewhat crude, but very effective, weapon prototype that gained widespread use at the time of the Horus Heresy. Two belts of ammunition are fed into the weapon from the right side and the howling faces of daemons cover the casing ejectors. It is assumed that the Talon, used in conjunction with the daemon sword Drach'nyen, provides Abaddon with his ranged combat abilities and confers at least the same benefits as a standard Lightning Claw.The Ghost's Razors - The Ghost's Razors were a set of unique Lightning Claws and a long-cherished artefact of the Tiger Claws Chapter that was gifted to Lufgt Huron as a mark of their gratitude for Huron's absorption of their Chapter into the Astral Claws. Its strange blades flickered with a ghostly light when activated and the technology which powers the weapon was an utter mystery even to Armenneus Valthex, the Astral Claws' Master of the Forge. This archaic weapon was destroyed by a Melta-blast from the dying Captain Zhrukal Androcles of the Star Phantoms Chapter during the final assault on the Palace of Thorns onBadab Primaris at the conclusion of the Badab War.Tyrant's Claw - The Tyrant's Claw is the monstrous, bear-like bionic arm and shoulder that was built to replace the arm of the Astral Claws' fallen Chapter Master Lufgt Huron. The bearer of this fell weapon is Huron Blackheart, the Lord of the infamous Renegade Chaos warband known as the Red Corsairs. The Claw is a Power Fist that incorporates a built-in Heavy Flamer. The Tyrant's Claw was built from the remnants of a relic known as the Ghost Razors, which fragmentary evidence suggests was gifted to Lufgt Huron by the remnants of the Tiger Claws Chapter in gratitude to their saviour. Like its predecessor, the Tyrant's Claw is a heavily armoured gauntlet that houses a number of articulated blades. In close combat, the Tyrant's Claws are an all but unmatched weapon, as the unidentified phase-frequency disruption fields imparted to their cutting edges prove able to slice through solid matter at a sub-molecular level, parting ceramite and adamantine plate effortlessly and sundering all energy fields and force barriers they encounter. The Heavy Flamer incorporated into the Tyrant's Claw is commonly employed as a squad support weapon by Terminator units deployed into closely confined battle zones. The use of such a weapon by a Space Marine commander was an unorthodox choice, but one that clearly reflects Huron Blackheart's preference for participating at the forefront of battle and heavy assaults. The Heavy Flamer's specific pattern remains unknown, and it was likely a direct creation of Armenneus Valthex in his capacity as the Tyrant's personal armourer and weaponsmith.Emperor's Lightning Claw - The Emperor's Lightning Claw was a Lightning Claw that was usually seen fitted on the Emperor's left hand when he was wearing His power armour during the eras of the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. Its appearance varied in depictions, having anywhere from between three to five digits. It is unknown what ultimately became of the weapon, as contemporary art of the Emperor in the 41st Millennium does not depict Him still wielding it upon the Golden Throne.
