A line officer of the [[Emperor's Children]] legion of the [[Adeptus Astartes]], [[Captain]] '''Saul Tarvitz''' personified all that was good and noble about his Legion. He had the respect of the troops under his command, and was happy with his position within the Legion, requiring only the opportunity to bring honour to his primarch [[Fulgrim]] and the [[Emperor of Mankind]]. He was not well loved by some of the more traditional members of the Legion's command staff, such as Lord Commander [[Eidolon]].
As the level of treachery within [[Horus]] and Fulgrim became apparent Tarvitz placed himself in the line of fire by willingly going to [[Isstvan III]]. There he and all suspected loyalist members would be betrayed by Horus. Horus ordered the bombardment of the planet, but Tarvitz, along with [[Garviel Loken]] and [[Tarik Torgaddon]] of the Luna Wolves, managed to turn the surviving loyalist survivors into a cohesive fighting force. This "line officer" turned a planned slaughter into a full-scale battle, confounding the great [[Primarch]]s themselves. This true child of the Emperor seems to have met his fate on Isstvan III.
