{{Spoiler|source=Dropsite Massacre (Novel)}}''

During the [[Dropsite Massacre]], Pech was a key traitor commander and oversaw the Alpha Legion's duplicitous manipulation of both sides, though openly they were pledged to Horus. After meeting the [[Iron Warriors]] [[Consul]] [[Grelth]] to "coordinate" the coming massacre, Pech activated [[Operative]]s throughout the loyalist fleet which sabotaged their ships{{Fn|8a}}, while also indirectly causing damage to traitor ones through acts such as collisions caused by the wrecks of loyal vessels.{{Fn|8c}} He also ensured that some loyalists were able to escape the battle, such as [[Admiral]] [[Klave]].{{Fn|8b}}

{{Spoiler|source=The Siege of Terra (Novel Series)}}''

Eventually Pech was dispatched by an unknown party to aid the Emperor during the [[Siege of Terra]]. His hypno-trigger phrase "Xenophon" was activated, as opposed to "Sagittary" (loyalty to Horus), "Paramius" (mutual annihilation), or "Orphaeus" (ignore both sides and focus on battling Chaos). However, he soon fell under the control of the witch [[Actae]], who used her psychic powers to activate "Orphaeus" and make him her slave. Now going by "Alpharius", Actae and Pech were able to join [[Ollanius Persson]], [[John Grammaticus]], and [[Argonauts|their group]] in infiltrating the [[Imperial Palace]]. At a hidden Alpha Legion arms cache in the depths of the [[Imperial Dungeon]], Pech was able to activate a psi-dampening device he found to explain his plight to John Grammaticus, pleading for help.{{Fn|5a}} John agreed to help Pech, and the First Captain saved the [[Perpetual]] from an attack by Alpha Legion 2nd Captain [[Mathias Herzog]], who had been sent under the trigger "Sagittary".{{Fn|5b}}
