Trastevere was a Justaerin Captain of the Sons of Horus Legion, during the Horus Heresy and led the Eye's Watch squadron.[1a]
He took part in the Dropsite Massacre and was later among the Legion's forces taking part in the Solar War. However as the Battle for Terra began, First Captain Abaddon ordered Trastevere and his squadron to chase down a group of loyalist Legionaries that had been found on Luna, which had fallen to Warmaster Horus. Trastevere was going to question the need for the Eye's Watch, as he thought their firepower would be overkill against a few Loyalists, but he quickly changed his mind after seeing the murderous threat in Abaddon's eyes. Though still doubtful of his orders, Trastevere did as he was command and found the Loyalists in Luna's Herodotus Omega dome. Once he saw the Loyalists, were of the Shattered Legions, Trastevere began to respect them as only the most skilled could have survived the Dropsite Massacre and then made their way to Terra. The Eye's Watch quickly began to fire upon the Loyalists, led by the Iron Hand Cadmus Tyro, as they retreated with the Selenar Gene-witch Ta'lab Vita-37. Though Trastevere did not know it, Vita-37 had been charged with protecting the Magna Mater relic, which was sought after by Horus.[1a]
Vita-37 had gained the Loyalists aid in defending it, but as they sought to escape she was mortally wounded by the Eye's Watch's fire. In order to ensure the Loyalists escaped with the Mater, the dying Gene-witch unleashed the remaining Ur-legionaries that remained sealed within the Herodotus Omega dome. These powerfully strong failed Legionaries were then able to kill most of Trastevere's squadron before they joined Vita-37 in death. Only Trastevere and two of the Eye's Watch survived the battle and began pursuing the Loyalists once more. Due to the injuries they suffered at the Justaerins' hands, the Eye's Watch were able to catch up to the Loyalists just as they neared Luna's surface. In order to ensure that the Magna Mater escaped the Traitors' grasp, Captains Cadmus Tyro and Ulrach Branthan fired upon the Eye's Watch so that their comrade Nykona Sharrowkyn could escape with the relic[1a]. Because of their injuries and having few rounds of ammo left, the Loyalists were only able to kill one of the Eye's Watch before they died. Now with only one Loyalist left, Trastevere and his remaining squadron member Urgave began their pursuit anew. By the time they reached Luna's surface, however, Sharrowkyn was able to escape aboard a Storm Eagle containing the remaining members of his group. Undeterred, Trastevere fired upon the Storm Eagle and managed to severely wound Sharrowkyn before the gunship went out of range of his fire. The Thunderhawk that had delivered Trastevere and the Eye's Watch to Luna, later attacked the Loyalist Storm Eagle, but was destroyed in the attempt. It is not known if Trastevere was aboard the Thunderhawk, as it crashed into Luna's surface.[1b]
