As they import their goods from nearby star systems, House Ordos relies on their skills as merchants to make their profits however, their wealth has made them increasingly paranoid. House Ordos The Ordos originate from a frigid, ice covered planet unnamed in Dune 2000 but later called Sigma Draconis IV in Emperor. The Baron's Mentat, Hayt De Vries (Robert Carin), was born from the flesh of a dead man in the Tleilaxu Flesh Vats. According to Lady Elara, the only thing human about the Harkonnen is their genetic makeup, as all humanity was abandoned long ago in favor of brutality and maliciousness, favoring pure firepower brought by Devastator Tanks and the Death Hand Missile. House Harkonnen The Harkonnens are ruled by the wicked Baron and come from the volcanic waste-planet of Giedi Prime. The Duke also wishes to develop an alliance with the Fremen, the native warriors of Dune. The House's fleets of ornithopters ensure their superior air power backed by Sonic Tanks to humanely destroy enemies. The Duke's famous Mentat, Noree Moneo (John Rhys-Davies), advises and resides over the Duke's forces on Arrakis. House Atreides Hailing from the water-planet of Caladan, the Atreides have a strict loyalty to their Duke and follow him with zeal.
There are also four non-playable subfactions: House Corrino, the Fremen, the Mercenaries and the Smugglers. According to Elara, they saw many visions of the commander dying -and only in one vision does the commander live and even rise to control massive armies and bring peace to Arrakis.Īs in Dune II, the three main playable factions are House Atreides, House Harkonnen and House Ordos. Meanwhile, Lady Elara (Musetta Vander) of the Bene Gesserit and bound concubine to the Emperor, secretly takes the commander - the player - into one of the Heighliners, a person whose bloodline and future the Sisterhood had checked. Emperor Corrino (Adrian Sparks) has issued a challenge that the House which can produce the most spice will control its source, the desert planet Dune, with no rules as to how the Houses can achieve the goal.
