=== Other === * '''{{visible anchor|Otheym}}''' is one of Paul's loyal [[Fedaykin]] death commandos in ''Dune''. In ''Dune Messiah'', he is ill after fighting in Paul's jihad, but reveals to Paul evidence of a Fremen conspiracy against him. Otheym gives Paul his dwarf Tleilaxu servant [[#Bijaz|Bijaz]], who, like a recording machine, can remember faces, names, and details. Paul accepts reluctantly, seeing the strands of a Tleilaxu plot. Otheym's daughter [[#Lichna|Lichna]] is also killed and replaced by a Tleilaxu Face Dancer as a means to infiltrate Paul's household. Otheym is portrayed by Honorato Magalone in the 1984 film, and by Jakob Schwarz in the 2000 miniseries and its 2003 sequel. * '''{{visible anchor|Korba}}''' is one of Paul's loyal Fedaykin death commandos in ''Dune''. In ''Dune Messiah'', he has become a fanatic of the religion which has risen around Paul, and the High Priest among its Qizarate leaders. Hoping to increase his own religious power, Korba joins a conspiracy to set off an atomic weapon called a [[stone burner]] to [[martyr]] Paul. The explosion kills hundreds of Fremen and blinds many other, including Paul himself. Korba is tried for his crimes, and executed by Stilgar. Korba is portrayed by [[Karel Dobrý]] in the 2003 miniseries. * '''{{visible anchor|Esmar Tuek}}''' is a spice smuggler on Arrakis. In ''Dune'', he attends a dinner thrown by Duke Leto Atreides and his Bene Gesserit concubine Lady Jessica at their Arrakeen palace. Esmar is later killed in the Harkonnen attack on Arrakeen that effectively destroys House Atreides. Esmar is portrayed by Pavel Kríz in the 2000 miniseries. * '''{{visible anchor|Staban Tuek}}''' is a spice smuggler on Arrakis like his father, Esmar Tuek. After the Harkonnen attack on Arrakeen, Staban gives sanctuary to Atreides Warmaster Gurney Halleck and his surviving troops. Gurney and his men join the smugglers, improving their organization and efficiency. * '''{{visible anchor|Captain Aramsham|Aramsham}}''' is the commander of the Imperial [[Sardaukar]] forces who arrive on Arrakis with Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV to impose order when Fremen attacks disrupt spice production on the planet. The ferocious Sardaukar soldier-fanatics are considered unstoppable, but the Fremen overcome them thanks to Paul's military strategy, their own ferocity and their ability to use sandstorms and the giant sandworms of Arrakis to their advantage. Paul uses the Bene Gesserit compulsion technique called [[The Voice (Dune)|the Voice]] to compel the Aramsham to humiliate himself by surrendering. However, Aramsham's Sardaukar stoicism is so great that he will not even give his name until Paul uses the Voice again. The defeat of the Sardaukar allows Paul to seize control of Arrakis and depose Shaddam. * '''{{visible anchor|Iakin Nefud}}''' is the Captain of the Guard for House Harkonnen, promoted from a corporal after the death of his predecessor Umman Kudu in Duke Leto Atreides' poison gas attack on Baron Vladimir Harkonnen. Nefud is addicted to the drug [[semuta]]. Nefud is portrayed by [[Jack Nance]] in the 1984 film.<ref name="dune maslin"/> * '''{{visible anchor|Wanna Marcus|Wanna}}''' is the Bene Gesserit wife of Suk doctor Wellington Yueh, the personal physician of Duke Leto Atreides. Prior to the events transpiring in ''Dune'', she is kidnapped by Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, who uses the threat of her extended torture to subvert Yueh's Suk Imperial Conditioning, which normally prohibits him from doing harm, and coerce him to betray Leto. Yueh submits to the Baron's demands, lowering the Atreides defensive shields and delivering Leto to him, but also gives Leto the means to assassinate the Baron. Yueh discovers, as he suspected, that Wanna has already been killed, and is himself murdered by the Baron's twisted Mentat, Piter De Vries. However, Yueh's loyalty to the Atreides had prompted him to aid Leto's son Paul and concubine Lady Jessica escape from the Harkonnens.
