'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Custodes]] Proconsul of the [[Hetaeron Guard]] [[Aquilon Terminator]] during the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1a}}
By the the final stages of the [[Siege of Terra]], Caecaltus alongside fellow Proconsul [[Uzkarel Ophite]] were the two sentinels closest to the [[Emperor]] directly on the steps of the [[Golden Throne]]. Upon the rousing of the Emperor to confront [[Horus]] aboard the ''[[Vengeful Spirit]]'', Caecaltus was chosen by the Emperor to accompany Him in the teleportation assault. Before [[Malcador the Sigillite]] took the place of the Emperor on the Throne, he put his finger in his mouth and made his sigil with saliva upon Caecaltus' armour.{{Fn|1a}}
Upon the teleportation aboard the ''Vengeful Spirit'', Caecaltus succumbed to the [[Warp]]-sorcery of [[Horus]] alongside dozens of other Custodes. The Companions were then controlled by Horus into attacking the Emperor, blood flowing from their eyes at the effort to resist. Caecaltus was amongst the Custodes to survive the ordeal, and the lingering taint of Horus was expelled from him by the Emperor. However the shame of attacking his Master will never go away.{{Fn|1b}}
