## <br>Campaign Overview

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52039731781_0061433c97_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**he** year is 9,907 of the Imperial Calendar, nearly 20,000 years into earth's future and over a hundred years before the life of Paul Atreides; a time of feudal politics, deadly assassins, and political rivalry in a universe where humanity has spread out across thousands of planets.
___
Our campaign will begin on the hostile garden planet **Ecaz**, known throughout the universe as the homeworld of **Sapho Juice**, an awareness-spectrum narcotic not unlike spice melange; where spice is sought after by the Spacing Guild for its prescient capability, Sapho Juice is sought after by the human computer Mentats for its ability to increase mental acuity and processing.
___
Your characters represent experts in their respective fields who will assist the ruling House of Ecaz in bringing their harvesting and production of Sapho Juice up to desired numbers; in preparation for the exchange of control of the desert planet Arrakis, the only known source of spice melange in the universe. For centuries, the governorship of Arrakis has been a boon granted by the Emperor to a Great House; though this governorship is not to exceed a hundred years time. As the time for the exchange approaches, House Ecaz hopes to have the numbers to prove to the Emperor they should be the House to manage and oversee the production of the Empire's greatest commodity.

## <br>Overview of the Imperium

</div>

After more than 10,000 years of Corrino rule, the Imperium is poised between the new and the old: subtle technologies and advantages allow the elite to live extended lives of opulence and wealth, while laborers and others less fortunate are virtual peasants, their lives rigidly proscribed within the highly structured feudal society
___
Today, **Fondil Corrino III** rules as the 79th Padishah Emperor of the known universe.

### The Landsraad and Great Convention
All the Houses—Major and Minor alike—are governed collectively by a council called the Landsraad, which is headed by the hereditary Emperor Corrino, with his own military reserves to enforce order upon his enemies, should any emerge to challenge his rule. The Landsraad is organized through a set of rules known as the Great Convention, the political compact that governs all.
___
All within the Landsraad swear allegiance to the Emperor, but most Houses within the Landsraad strive and scramble for influence and power, usually represented in wealth and military supremacy. The Landsraad Council met regularly, and provided a forum within which Great Houses could relate with one another, to either negotiate trade agreements, create alliances, or conduct **kanly**, the formalised processes of vendetta or feud that often included a war of assassins.
### The Spacing Guild
The complex computations required for **foldspace** travel were only possible though the use of thinking computers, which were forbidden after the **Butlerian Jihad**. A solution to this came with the development of the Navigators of the Spacing Guild, humans mutated through extreme exposure to spice for this particular purpose. Their spice-granted limited prescient ability allows Navigators to safely guide an interstellar vessel as it folds space. This allows starships to take nearinstantaneous journeys between star systems, enabling communication and trade and keeping the Imperium whole and intact.

\columnbreak

###### The Spice Melange
One thing makes the existing power structure within the Imperium possible: the spice melange, an organic substance which bestows longevity, enhanced awareness, and allows prescient visions of the future to come. Despite its beneficial qualities, the spice is a doubleedged sword: it is also highly addictive, and withdrawal can often be deadly.
___
This miraculous substance is found in only one place in the entire universe: the planet Arrakis. This desert world, seemingly barren save for its gigantic sandworms and fierce nomadic native inhabitants called the Fremen, is the most important place in the universe.
### Life within<br>the Imperium
The overwhelming majority of humans living within the Imperium are subject to the **Faufreluches** feudal system, and are as such hereditary peasants whose destiny is to serve the **siridar governor** appointed by the House, who in turn serve at the will of the Padishah Emperor. The Houses Major and Minor represent the nobility, while merchants, artisans, scholars, and adepts of the Great Schools represent the middle class. Below the working class is the **maula** or slave class; Most Houses do not countenance slavery within their territory; some Houses permit it but allow slaves to purchase their freedom; and other Houses practice it openly.

###### Currency
The standard unit of currency is the **solari**, a denomination that has been tied to the value of the spice melange, again underlining the importance of spice to the Imperium.
###### Language
The common, and official, tongue spoken everywhere in the Imperium is **Galach**. Many other languages are spoken within the fiefdoms of the Houses of the Landsraad, such as the **sign-language** of the Bene Gesserit, **battle languages** unique to each House, and **Chakobsa**, the hunting tongue used by the Fremen.

\pagebreakNum

### The Butlerian Jihad
The Butlerian Jihad, also called the Great Revolt, was the long and bloody crusade against computers, thinking machines, and conscious robots. After two generations of chaos, the god of machine-logic was overthrown by the masses and a new concept was raised: "Man may not be replaced."
___
This lack of thinking technology created a severe gap in humanity's quality of life, revolving around a need for humans to perform complex logical computations and calculations. This gap led to the creation of the **Great Schools**, who trained humans to their physical and mental peak to replace what was lost to thinking machines.
### The Great Schools
Most Houses within the Landsraad have one or more graduates of these schools within their ranks, and many noble heirs are either sent to these schools or taught their disciplines by graduates of these schools.
###### The Bene Gesserit
The Bene Gesserit is a female religious order, with emphasis on training adepts to attain full, precise control of their bodies and movements. You can read more about the Bene Gesserit in their faction template on [**page 12**](#p12).
###### The Order of Mentats
The Order of Mentats trains adepts to become human computers, able to process and analyze vast amounts of data, keep accurate records of memory, and make calculations and predictions quickly. You can read more about the Mentat Order in their faction template on [**page 17**](#p17).
###### The Suk School
The Suk School is a medical institution that teaches several methods for diagnosing and treating physical and mental ailments. You can read more about the Suk School in their faction template on [**page 20**](#p20).
###### The Swordmasters of Ginaz
The Ginaz school trains adepts with long and short blades for the purposes of combat; personal shields make ranged weapons largely ineffective in the modern age. You can read more about the Swordmasters of Ginaz in their faction template on [**page 19**](#p19).

\columnbreak

### Faith and Religion
While humanity has spread out into the stars, religion and faith still have a place in the Imperium. In fact, several religious beliefs form the cornerstone of many of the social mores of both nobles and commoners.
###### Orange Catholicism
Many within the Imperium follow a religion known as **Orange Catholicism**, named for the 1,800 page long *Orange Catholic Bible*, (a bastardization of the original term, *Koranjiyana Zenchristian Scriptures*). Its primary commandment is "Thou shalt not disfigure the soul."
___
The religion incorporates a wide range of religious creeds from Old Terra, a fusion religion synthesized by the Committee of Ecumenical Translators. The goal of the CET was to create the ‘perfect’ religious book that could accommodate the spiritual needs of all humanity, taking away from any single religion the claim to being the sole proprietor of divine insight.
###### Zensunnism
A mystical religious sect incorporating elements from Zen Buddhism and Sunni Islam, the Zensunni broke from the teachings of Maometh, the ’Third Muhammed’, millennia ago and became a distinct faith on its own, inspiring many branches. Despite the name, it bears little resemblance to Islam or Buddhism. The faith reveres a singular God, a bride at his left hand, an enemy *Shaitan*, and a number of *kiswa* or mystical, spiritual figures.

## Planetary Filmbook Guide<br>Ecaz

</div>

**Star System:** Alpha Centauri AB (Toliman)
___
**Moons:** One (Limbes)
___
**Habitable:** Class III
<br>*Humans can survive with environmental precautions.*
___
**Ruling House:** Ecaz
___
**Major Exports:** Sapho Juice, Narcotics, Krimskel Rope, Wood, Sculptures
___
**Languages:** Galach, Chakobsa
___
**Locations of Interest:** Ecaz City, Archducal Palace, Ellaca Estates, Ecological Survey Station

###### Overview
A "garden world" of lush marsh, jungle, and forest biomes around the equator. High levels of atmospheric CO₂. Flora and Fauna are typically Class II hazards. The primary star Alpha Centauri A (Rijel) cycles close to the planet at times. For ~40 years, the planet will have a typical day-night cycle with Rijel appearing as a bright star or small moon, followed by ~40 years of constant daylight.
###### History
Originally the fief of House Plana, their reign came to an abrupt halt in 7033 B.G. when a general atomic attack resulted in the complete destruction of all human artifacts. This caused radioactive byproducts so substantial as to render the entire planet uninhabitable, and breached the formerly sealed botanical research and development stations of Plana, releasing the mutagenic bacteria, viruses, and chemicals into the atmosphere.

\columnbreak

###### Environment
Ecaz is home to 8 marginally inhabitable continents and a population of ~2.7 million. Geographic features include Bloodwood forests, swampy jungles, and high plateaus. The flora of Ecaz is incredibly diverse and atypical for other planets in the universe. Cities are built high in the plateaus to avoid a number of dangerous plant life, including *Pneumofungus*, *Skinseeds*, *Hairoot*, *Acidmold*, and *Rustroot* plants.
___
###### Culture
House Ecaz is well loved by its people. Life on Ecaz can be difficult and dangerous, but bountiful boasts a prominent community of art and luxury.
___
In stark contrast to this are the **Madan**, descendants of zensunni wanderers that are native to the planet, not unlike the *Fremen* of Arrakis; some say they are descendants of House Plana who lived through the harsh radiation times. They are distinguished by their special breathing masks which make life in the marshes easier. Their culture is unique and distinct from life in the Imperium, focused on wetland survival.
___
###### Points of Interest
The capital is **Ecaz City** on the continent of Badbeg, where the siridar Archduke rules from the Mahogany throne. He presides over a number of lesser Dukes who in turn rule over a number of cities that can be found throughout the planet.
___
The **Elacca Estates** on the continent of Elacca are a well known vacation spot for art enthusiasts throughout the Imperium. They are nearby to a number of Fogwood sculptures of great renown.

## <br>House Ecaz
###### House Major

</div>
</center>

**Homeworld:** Ecaz
___
**Other Holdings:** Logi
___
**Banners and Arms:**     **Colors:** Purple and Green
<br>
                                           **Crest:** Tree
___
**House Traits:** Honorable, Popular
___
**Primary Domain:** Sapho | Farming (Wood)
___
**Secondary Domain:** Artistic (Fogwood Sculptures) | Farming (Hufuf Vine) | Pharmaceuticals (Elacca, Esoit-poay, Pleniscenta, Semuta, Verite)
___
**Ruler:** Archduke Valère Ecaz
___
House Ecaz was once one of a number of families engaged in the research, study, and development of Ecaz after its rediscovery. Their efforts in discovering, documenting, and experimenting with the number of useful flora despite the many dangers is what eventually landed them the ability to rise to House Major. Many of the other Minor Houses remain on the planet, ruling over sub-fiefs across the planet's vast jungles, swamps, and forests.
___
The House is well-loved by its citizens, as they are afforded many amenities and luxuries. The planet attracts wealthy patrons of the arts and boasts a bustling trade community, thanks to the Fogwood sculptures by various renowned artists.
___
The native people, the **Madan** tribes, have no such love for the House or the Imperium, seeing the House and the artists as trespassers and thieves of the planet's natural resources. The Madan are openly hostile to the Imperium and its people, but the tribes remain in the marshes and wetlands; the only danger lies in disturbing them or foraging too close to their settlements.

\columnbreak

Player characters in ***Dune: Adventures in the Imperium*** are a cut above most people. They are those who are the most definitively human, those whose discernment and judgment overrule base instinct. In short, they are those most fit to hold positions of status, and to shape the existences of others with their deeds.
___
Each character is composed of several elements, which serve to represent and define who the character is and how they interact with the worlds they inhabit. These elements are described in the following sections.
___
### Campaign Concept
To help you decide what kind of character you want to play, consider the campaign's general premise and how your character might fit into the bigger picture.
## Step One:<br>Concept
The first step in creating a player character is to decide what general sort of character to create. The following section provides a number of character archetypes for you to choose from, though you may choose any combination of elements to make your character.
___
If you choose a character template, record its **trait.** Otherwise, you can choose a trait when you create your character concept that represents your *profession*, your training or expertise.

###### Bene Gesserit Agent
*But the Bene Gesserit ways were devious and compelling.*
*<p style='text-align: right;'>—Lady Jessica Atreides</p>*
___
**Trait:** Bene Gesserit
<br>**Primary Skill:** Discipline
<br>**Secondary Skill:** Battle, Communicate, or Understand
<br>**Mandatory Talents:** Prana-Bindu Conditioning
<br>**Faction Talents:** Hyperawarenss, Other Memory, Voice
<br>**Assets:** Bodkin, Bene Gesserit Dot Coder, Filmbook (blank)

\columnbreak

Moving behind the scenes is the **Sisterhood of the Bene Gesserit**, an all-female religious order that advises and counsels all the Houses of the Landsraad, providing them with wives, concubines, and counselors. Some women within noble Houses receive Sisterhood training, whether through time spent within the order, at the hands of a mother or relative who received this training, or from a Bene Gesserit representative serving within their household. Males can be trained by the Bene Gesserit to serve in their security and defense, but can never attain ranks as a sister or mother of the order.
___
Though the Bene Gesserit serves all the Houses and the Emperor, their true goal is the secret genetics program, a grand exercise in controlled eugenics. Its ultimate purpose is the creation of their Kwisatz Haderach, a genetic superhuman whose psychic and physical abilities will bring peace to the universe, all with the careful guidance and control of the Sisterhood. To this end, the Bene Gesserit has also created the Missionaria Protectiva, a program that has manipulated and seeded countless religions with prophecies of the Kwisatz Haderach, or some version of it.
___
Their more advanced training, called prana-bindu, includes enhanced physical and mental acuity and the ability to control their bodies to extraordinary degrees, secret means of communication and perception, and even to discern truth or deception in those they observe. They are also masters of the Voice, an ability to control the modulation and pitch of the vocal chords in subsonic frequencies that muddle the mind and command obedience in others.
___
As a Bene Gesserit, your character might be a concubine or counselor of House Ecaz. Your character might instead be a priestess or a male with Bene Gesserit training, contacted by the House to assist with the coming harvest.

\pagebreakNum

Exceptionally rare outside Arrakis, the desert Fremen are slow to give their loyalty to anyone outside their tribe, but once given it is absolute. Few, if any, leave Arrakis, but for those on the desert planet they are exceptional guides.
___
Descended from the Zensunni Wanderers who sought refuge from persecution, the ancestors of the Fremen have been upon Arrakis since before the Guild, even before the Imperium. The Fremen mastered the riding of **sandworms**, the most colossal of all living things, which they call *Shai-Hulud* and revere as living gods. They also learned to coax water—life itself—from the desert where there is none. They were there upon Arrakis when melange became the most sought-after substance in the universe. And even as their planet became the most important in the cosmos and as they became the subject of curiosity, inquest, and hostility, the Fremen remained. Theirs is a culture dedicated to a single principle: survival. Almost every aspect of their existence is dedicated to this overriding goal. Survival at all costs. How else could they have lived so long on Arrakis?
___
All Fremen are immediately identifiable by their strange and practical uniform—the **stillsuit**. The stillsuit is an ingenious piece of design, carefully calibrated and assembled to preserve and capture moisture. Layers of fabric, mesh, and absorbent fibers are meticulously woven together, along with heat exchange filaments and salt precipitators—these are combined with tubes which run the length of the suit and provide a filtration system.
___
The most distinctive weapon used by the Fremen is undoubtedly the **crysknife**. Made from the tooth of a sandworm, each one is unique and bonded to its user. The crysknife is never used by another and to lose it would be a terrible dishonor for the owner. Obtaining a crysknife from Shai-Hulud renders each crysknife sacred—after all, they are shed by a god. The Fremen have developed a rich series of traditions and superstitions around these blades. The most widely known is the fact that, once drawn, a crysknife cannot be sheathed until it has drawn blood. The second, and more impractical, is that no one outside of the owner’s tribe can see the blade. To expose the crysknife to an outsider—except during battle—is taboo, and the crysknife must either be disposed of or else ritually cleansed, to render it fit once more for use.

###### Bhotani Assassin

*<p style='text-align: right;'>—The Assassin's Handbook</p>*
___
**Trait:** Assassin
<br>**Primary Skill:** Battle
<br>**Secondary Skill:** Understand or Move

\columnbreak

The **Bhotani** were a culture of hired assassins who became prominent during the first War of Assassins, a limited form of warfare that was permitted under the Great Convention and the Guild Peace during the time of the Corrinos, a kind of **kanly**.
___
In the Imperium, assassins are sanctioned professionals. As strange as it may be, these killers are as much a part of the fabric of the Imperium as the Emperor himself. They tip the balance of power by removing their employers’ political competitors, economic rivals, or social adversaries, all while following the Great Convention’s rules and the guidelines in the *Assassins’ Handbook*, of course.
___
Assassins of the Imperium often employ poisons and hunter-seekers to minimize collateral damage, as per the regulations put on a War of Assassins. However, they train in a variety of martial arts and can also kill by combat and direct means, when necessary.
___
When they are not on a mission of murder, assassins often double as advisors to their Houses, and as a result, they have a deep understanding of the inner workings of the Landsraad. It is not unusual for these professional killers to have influence and titles of their own
___
As an assassin, your character might be in the employ of the House's warmaster, defending the House against its enemies as it prepares to vie for Arrakis.

\pagebreakNum

Wherever laws exist someone will attempt to profit by breaking them. Law enforcement away from the residencies of the noble Houses is minimal and pickpocketing, protection rackets, housebreaking, kidnapping, and even arson are rife.
___
The common folk chafe under the power structures of the Imperium, like the abuses suffered at the hands of the ruling Houses and the tyranny of CHOAM. The criminals, smugglers, and infiltrators of this world will do anything they can to undermine it.
___
But living outside the law in the Imperium isn’t for the faint of heart. There is the constant risk of discovery and death at the hands of the Landsraad, CHOAM, or the Sardaukar if you're lucky. These rebels make it work by keeping their wits about them and possessing a fierce determination to survive. Criminal gangs, smugglers, and spies are clever, motivated, and driven.
___
Many criminals use their not-so-hard earned solari to buy Cibus Hoods, wondrous pieces of technology that can obscure the face, to evade notice and capture by authorities. Thusly, underworld criminals and smugglers often make the perfect spies and infiltrators.
___
A person who can find information about a rival is invaluable in House or Imperial politics. One who can penetrate to the very heart of an enemy’s household is worth their weight in spice. In the Imperium a successful spy or infiltrator gains rich rewards. Failure or detection is, however, often fatal. Or worse.
___
A criminal character could represent a spice smuggler, a spy or infiltrator, a con artist, or even a pirate. Whatever the crime, your skills would likely earn you attention and solari from the House.

The complex computations required for foldspace travel were only possible though the use of thinking computers, which were forbidden after the Butlerian Jihad. A solution to this came with the development of the **Navigators** of the **Spacing Guild**, humans mutated through extreme exposure to spice for this particular purpose. Their spice-granted limited prescient ability allows Navigators to safely guide an interstellar vessel as it folds space. This allows starships to take nearinstantaneous journeys between star systems, enabling communication and trade and keeping the Imperium whole and intact.
___
Due to their inability to survive outside their tailored environment tanks, a Guild Navigator is a rare sight. The Guild does business through its agents who are easy to find anywhere a person might go to arrange interplanetary transport — for themselves, those they serve, or goods. Guild Agents are skilled at fitting in with their environment in manner and appearance. They pride themselves on being unremarkable and often hide their totally blue eyes.
___
Like the Bene Gesserit, the Spacing Guild is an intensely secretive institution, and does not willingly share its methods or information about its goals and inner organization. Few outsiders have ever seen a Guild Navigator, and none have visited Guild headquarters or holdings. The inner workings of the Guild—recruiting, training, operations, administration—remain utterly opaque outside the Guild, and they strictly guard all knowledge about their organization.
___
A guild agent character might have been sent in good faith by the Spacing Guild to prepare the House for Arrakis. Your character might instead be privately contracted by the House for your experience and expertise.

\pagebreakNum

Though the Butlerian Edicts prevent thinking computers, this does not do away with the need for complex calculations and analysis of data. To meet this need, the **Order of Mentats** was founded, humans capable of sophisticated feats of cognition and analysis, with enhanced memories and thought processes capable of making intuitive leaps and predicting human behavior and outcomes with astonishing accuracy. As such, Mentats are supreme strategists, administrators, spymasters, and counselors, relying on a state called the ‘naïve mind’, which allows them to assess incoming information without prejudice or assumptions. Though this is not as accurate as actual prescience, Mentats are nonetheless essential to most House-level strategy and action.
___
Bound by ethical constraints, Mentats are inherently honest, a conviction prized by the majority of the Landsraad. With their intense mental conditioning and exceptional cognitive ability, Mentats are employed by almost all influential entities within the Imperium, like Houses and high-volume traders. They are trusted as military strategists, administrators, political advisors, and tutors for young nobles.
___
The exception to this rule are the **Twisted Mentats**; mentats trained by the mysterious and illusive **Bene Tleilax**, an order of genetically altered scientists who dabble in biological technologies that skirt the Great Convention and all morality. Twisted mentats are bound by no ethical constraints and are invariably used for nefarious goals.
___
Most Mentats drink Sapho juice, extracted from the barrier roots of Ecaz, which enhances their mental processing abilities tremendously, but marks their lips with a telltale red stain.

The Houses throughout the Imperium, are always vying for power. So, too, are the courtiers. Many, but not all, are **nobles**. Heirs to Houses Minor and shipping fortunes are the types drawn to this world of intrigue. All have a stake in melange. One can find courtiers at generous banquets where rumors fly faster than the sumptuous dishes can arrive at the table. As they sip rich wines with heady aromas and attend rowdy sporting competitions held inside out of the burning sun, the courtiers work to claw their way up the social ladder, not caring who they trample beneath their heels in the process.
___
Despite their luxurious homes, unlimited access to water, and aristocratic experiences, the young nobles of the Imperium lead uncertain lives. From an early age they learn to identify a hunter-seeker and other methods of slaughter. Poison snoopers are common at the dinner table. The knowledge that a War of Assassination could happen at any moment makes the wisest of them wary and mistrustful.
___
Their banquets, games, and lavish spending may make them seem carefree. In fact, they are almost anything but. Political and social clashes, both overt and covert, rule their lives. If they survive to adulthood, they understand that they will become even more of a target.
___
Young nobles are always on the hunt for allies and looking to surprise their enemies in unexpected ways. And they always have solaris to help them get their way.
___
A noble courtier character might be from one of the many Dukes of the Houses Minor who serve the Archduke on Ecaz. Consider the following Minor Houses as your character's family name: **Birk**, **Bludd**, **Dinari**, **Nabiyat**, **Narvi**, **Orlaq**, **Plana**, **Ruitt**, **Viol**, **Xitan**

\pagebreakNum

Thanks to the development of personal shields, the irrelevance of the gun and the laser in the universe necessitated the development of many new approaches to combat. The Sardaukar are deadly fighters, brutal and remorseless and implacable. The Fremen are rumored to produce warriors of great skill, if rarely seen. But few surpass the skill of those trained on **Ginaz**.
___
Ginaz is a waterlogged planet in a small, out of the way system ruled over by a relatively small and out-of-the-way House. Its **swordmasters**, however, are the most talented and deadly wielders of the blade seen in any galaxy.
___
Capable of taking on multiple foes at a time, singlehandedly and remaining confident of victory, each swordmaster of Ginaz undergoes the most rigorous and exhausting of training regimens, designed to inculcate both physical discipline and martial skill. Those sent for training follow a strict regime as they move from island to island on Ginaz. Each island has a different lesson to teach, and those who fail to learn any of these lessons are sent home as failures.
___
Graduated swordmasters serve as commanders, generals, security officers, and personal bodyguards. They often oversee the tutelage of nobles in the fighting arts, both for the nobles’ own safety and to ready these students for the responsibilities they assume should they inherit their House’s leadership. All Houses within the Landsraad employ swordmasters within their ranks, though the ones from Ginaz are indisputably the best. Famed throughout the Imperium, its graduates are among the finest warriors the galaxy has seen, perhaps even capable of besting Imperial Sardaukar.
___
Their training is not limited to swordsmanship (in which they are without peer) but also all manner of hand-to-hand combat, armed or unarmed, shielded or otherwise, as well as tactics, command, demolition, logistics, and all the arts of war

Among all the powers and factions found in the Imperium, none are as universally respected as the graduates of the **Suk Medical School**. When the great and powerful seek the hands of a doctor it is to the Suk that they go.
___
Identified by the diamond tattoo on their forehead, Suk graduates are the most skilled healers in the Landsraad. Imperial conditioning ensures these doctors’ loyalty and incorruptibility, making them incapable of taking another life, even under extreme duress. Suk doctors are also the most expensive, with a percentage of their fees tithed to the Suk School of Medicine on Kaitain.
___
Those with Suk training benefit from highly specialized training. **Tsai medicine** is a discipline that allows Suk to analyze natural resources and devise herbal remedies, able to create an entire pharmacopeia of medicine on a planet they have never been to before. **Ming medicine** is an intense study of the human body and how to relieve pain with pressure points and chiropracty. An the discipline of **Fai-Kai** gives the Suk doctor control of his own body, allowing him to remain serene and calm in dire situations by controlling his heart rate and adrenal production; or conversely allowing him to react quickly when needed.
___
Of course, there are those who see value in the training of the Suk doctor for less than noble reasons. A **Killer Medic** is a Suk doctor whose Imperial Conditioning has been broken, allowing him to use his knowledge for poisons and assassinations. These killer medics are extremely rare and only employed by Houses who don't mind skirting the law, and who have connections to the mysterious geneticists known as the **Bene Tleilax**.
___
Your Suk Doctor character might be one of the medical staff serving the House, or might instead be an exceptional graduate called in to assist the House's harvesting operation in the realm of personnel or botany.

## Step Two:<br>Skills
Each character has a rating in each of five skills, which are described below. Skills contribute to a character’s tests, and they define what a character is doing when they act. Each skill is rated from 4 to 8, and the more proficient a character is, the higher the skill is rated.
___
The skills are *Battle, Communicate, Discipline, Move, and Understand*.

| Skill Rating  | Meaning |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  4  | You lack training or knowledge in this field. |
|  5  | You’re trained to a basic level. |
|  6  | You are well-trained, or you have basic training and some experience. |
|  7  | You’re highly capable and experienced. |
|  8  | You are a master of that skill, renowned for your expertise. |

At this stage in character creation, you will have the following skill ratings:
- Your primary skill is rated at 6
- Your secondary skill is rated at 5.
- The other three skills are rated at 4.

If you choose a character template, it will suggest your primary and secondary skills.

Once you’ve done this, you may increase any skills you wish; you have **five points** which you may distribute as you see fit between your skills. No skill may be increased above 8 in this way.

\columnbreak

### Battle
Battle describes a character’s skill at arms, their awareness of danger, their understanding of tactics and strategy, and their knowledge of the tools, techniques, and history of combat.
- Use Battle when you fight, when you seek to avoid danger, when you plan a battle, and when you try to recall some fact about the methods or history of conflict.

### Communicate
Communicate describes a character’s ability to skillfully engage in conversations, discussions, and debates. It encompasses the use of implication, innuendo, subtext, and context to convey or hide intent and to read those methods when others use them.
- Use Communicate when you attempt to persuade or deceive others, when you need to convey meaning through implication and subtle means, when you need to understand what others are truly trying to say, and when you need to detect attempts by others to use these methods.

### Discipline
Discipline describes a character’s ability to influence and control their own mind and body (overruling instincts and autonomic functions) as well as their ability to exert direct, overt influence over others through presence, force of will, and the power of authority. It also allows a character to focus and concentrate on a complex task, such as picking a lock.
- Use Discipline when attempting to resist attempts to subvert body or mind, such as poisons, drugs, or mental influence, as well as to suppress instincts and reflexes when subjected to extreme pain or hardship, or to compel or threaten others through presence and authority alone.

\pagebreakNum

### Move
Move describes a character’s mobility, their ability to maneuver around an environment quickly or carefully, and their ability to overcome physical obstacles.
- Use Move to walk, run, jump, climb, swim, or otherwise maneuver in situations where speed, precision, stealth, or care are necessary, or when you need to exert physical force in ways other than fighting.

### Understand
Understand describes a character’s ability to take in and process information, and to recall and apply that knowledge effectively at a later point. It also includes logical deduction and intuitive comprehension of situations, forming conclusions from perceived facts, as well as in-depth comprehension of academic, technical, or scientific knowledge.
- Use Understand when attempting to discern details about the situation around you, to search an area thoroughly and effectively, to perform research, to recall things you have learned in the past, to reach conclusions and deductions from the things you know and have learned, and to be able to apply your knowledge and available data in practical ways.

## Step Three:<br>Focuses
A character’s skills are broad, and each character has a selection of focuses which allow you to demonstrate their specialties and the kinds of advanced expertise that comes with specialized training or hard-won experience.
___
You pick a focus for your **primary** and **secondary** skills. Once you’ve chosen these, you may choose **two** other focuses, which may be associated with any skills you want. These focuses increase a character’s chances of scoring a critical success on tests using that skill, in circumstances where that focus applies. There is no singular, fixed list of focuses. Focuses can be chosen freely during character creation, for there are innumerable areas of expertise and specializations.

\columnbreak

In play, while you receive focuses for particular skills, they may be used on any skill test where they might reasonably be appropriate: the skill a focus is listed alongside is simply the skill most likely to use that focus. Where a focus requires you to specify something in particular (all marked with a \*) you may only apply your focus to that particular choice. But you may take the focus multiple times to have a collection of different specialties (such as picking Music twice to play two instruments).

###### Example Battle Focuses
- **Assassination** (attempting to get close to attack a target)

\pagebreakNum

## Step Four:<br>Talents
A starting player character has **three** talents, representing special abilities, advanced techniques, and other significant benefits. These are abilities which define a character, helping them to stand out and feel special.
___
Your chosen template will provide mandatory talents, and it will suggest several options which are appropriately thematic for that archetype. You may choose different talents if you wish, but at least one of your talents should relate to your chosen archetypes in some way. Once you’ve selected that first talent, you may select **two** other talents.
___
Some talents, such as *Advisor*, have to be connected to a particular skill. This connection is chosen when the talent is picked and can only apply to that skill. However, such a talent may be chosen again and applied to another skill. So a character might have *Advisor (Battle)* and *Advisor (Communicate)* as two of their talent picks, for example.
___
The list of Talents begins on [**page 26**](#p26)
## Step Five:<br>Drives
Until now, the character creation process has focused on “What does the character do?”. This step deals with the other side of a character: what do they believe?
___
Each character has a rating in each of five drives, which are described below. Drives are added to a character’s skills to derive the target number when they attempt a test. But they also define why a character is taking action, and what drives them to succeed. A character’s most important drive is rated 8. The second-most is rated at 7, then the rest at 6, 5, and 4.

\columnbreak

###### Duty
Duty is the pressure upon a character to find their place in society and fulfill their allotted role, but also the weight of obligations and personal responsibilities.
- Use Duty when it is your character’s responsibility to get the job done, and when others are counting on the character to succeed. This might be in service to their House or the people under their command.
###### Faith
Faith is the moral expectation of religion and a character’s spiritual needs. It shows their dedication to a higher power and the guiding hand of destiny. But a high Faith drive does not always mean a religious or spiritual dedication, as some place their faith in their faction or friends as much as the will of God.
- Use Faith when the character has a moral imperative to take action, whether from their religion or personal values. This might also be used to rely on luck or a last-minute plan for an action to succeed.
###### Justice
Justice is a drive toward balance and fairness, but also the will to redress injustices. It often serves the law and the common good, but it can just as easily uphold bad laws and be used as an excuse for revenge.
- Use Justice when doing the action is simply the right thing to do, legally if not morally. This might be when the character is enforcing the law, when they are meting out punishment on behalf on their House, or even when taking revenge.
###### Power
Power is the pursuit of greater influence, authority, or control over the universe around them. It is the character’s ego, representing their belief in their own moral authority and their right to take what they want.
- Use Power when doing the action serves the character’s agenda in some way, either directly or indirectly. Self-serving actions need not always take from others and might even require sacrifice (for a greater reward), but they are never entirely altruistic.

\pagebreakNum

###### Truth
Truth is the desire for knowledge and the need to uncover or define that which is true. It is dedicated to revealing the right answers, even if they are uncomfortable or even dangerous.
- Use Truth when the character’s curiosity has got the better of them, or when they absolutely must know the answer to enhance their own knowledge and understanding. It is also useful when uncovering secrets.
### Drive Statements
For each drive with a rating of 6 or higher, you define a single statement. This is a short sentence explaining what the character feels about that drive. Characters don’t have drive statements for their lower-rated drives, because they don’t feel strongly enough about those things.
###### Example Statements
- **Duty:** “I know my responsibilities.“
- **Faith:** “I trust my heart, not my head.
- **Justice:** “Everyone should be treated equally.“
- **Power:** “All power invites challenge.”
- **Truth:** “I seek to uncover the many secrets of the universe.”

## Step Six:<br>Assets
Assets represent the tools and resources available to a character, which they can use to achieve their goals. [**Chapter 5: Assets**](#p42) contains a list of the kinds of assets available.
___
A starting character should have three assets, one of which must be tangible.
___
Remember that your assets are not a comprehensive list of everything your character may possess, but rather those which are the most important and useful to the character and your play style.
___
If you choose a template, it will suggest assets relevant to that character archetype.

\columnbreak

## Step Seven:<br>Finishing Touches
###### Trait
Select one additional trait for your character, reflecting the character’s reputation and how they are regarded by others. These do not necessarily have to be accurate descriptions of who the character is, only how others perceive them; a character may seek to cultivate a reputation distinct from who they actually are.
###### Ambition
Each player character has an ambition, which guides their long-term actions. A character who takes steps to achieve their ambitions will become more capable, more influential, and generally more effective. Your character’s ambition should be based on their highest-rated drive, and your gamemaster will work with you to define one for your character, helping to create something which can come up in play frequently.
###### Personal Details
If you haven't already, make sure to determine the following personal details about your character.
- Name
- Apperance
- Personality
- Relationships

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52039731781_0061433c97_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**he** following is a selection of talents which characters may select. Exceptional abilities, such as Mentat training, or the many and varied powers of a Bene Gesserit, are a form of talent, but talents can take other forms too, representing some of the ways which set a player character apart from ordinary people.
___
Talents normally take the form of a mechanical bonus—re-rolls, bonus Momentum, the ability to succeed automatically on certain tests, or unique ways to use Momentum, Threat, or Determination. No talent may be selected more than once, unless otherwise noted.

</div>

\pagebreakNum

###### Adrenaline Shot<br>(Suk Doctor Talent)
*You are adept at getting people back on their feet, even if you only make them forget their pain for a moment.*
___
By using an action, the character can temporarily remove the effects of any physical complication from a character who is in the same zone. This complication returns at the end of the scene unless otherwise removed. This talent can only be used once on each given character during each scene.
___
###### Advisor (Skill)
*You’ve got a knack for guiding others through problems.*
___
When you choose this talent, select a single skill. Whenever you assist an ally and you use that skill, the ally you assist may re-roll a single d20 in their dice pool.
___
###### BINDING PROMISE
*Whether through your demeanor, your reputation, or the method of your persuasion, you have a way of making people reluctant to break faith with you.*
___
When you succeed at a Communicate test to persuade someone to agree to a promise or agreement, you may spend one, two, or three points of Momentum to make that agreement binding. If that person wishes to break the promise, they must spend Threat equal to twice the Momentum you spent.
___
###### BOLSTER
*Your certainty and resolve are a beacon to others, who might waver without your example.*
___
Once per scene, when an ally fails a skill test, you may immediately spend 2 points of Momentum or add 2 to Threat to allow that ally to re-roll all the dice in their dice pool. When they re-roll, they may use your Discipline score instead of the skill they were using.

\columnbreak

###### CALCULATED PREDICTION<br>(MENTAT TALENT)
*Using the facts and figures you have memorized and your ability to process information, you can attempt to predict the future. No such predictions are 100% perfect, as there may be variables you are unaware of that affect the future.*
___
You may spend a few minutes to meditate upon predicting the future. This requires an Understand test with a Difficulty of 4; if successful, you may ask the Gamemaster to state somethingthat is likely to occur in the future. You may ask for one additional prediction for every two points of Momentum you spend. The Gamemaster can make these predictions vague and they do not have to explain any context for the prediction or why that thing is likely to occur
___
###### COLLABORATION (SKILL)
*You’ve coached your allies to capitalize on your expertise, and that effort has paid off.*
___
When you select this talent, choose a single skill with a rating of 6 or more. Whenever an ally attempts a test using that skill, and you can communicate with them, you may spend 2 points of Momentum to allow them to use your score for that skill, and one of your focuses (if applicable).
___
###### COMBAT MEDIC (SUK DOCTOR TALENT)
*You are skilled at offering rapid medical attention, even during a battle.*
___
You may spend 1 point of Momentum to reduce the extended test track of an ally in physical combat by 2 as an action.
___
###### CONSTANTLY WATCHING
*You’re vigilant, bordering on paranoid… and little catches you off-guard.*
___
Whenever you attempt a skill test to detect danger or hidden enemies, you reduce the Difficulty by 2, to a minimum of 0.

\pagebreakNum

###### DIRECT
*Your will and presence can drive others to act swiftly and efficiently.*
___
Once per scene, you may command an ally or subordinate to act. This requires no test from you, but the commanded ally may immediately attempt an action of their own, and you may assist any test they attempt. If done during a conflict, the ally acts on your turn regardless of if they have already acted, and this does not prevent them acting later during the round.
___
###### FAILED NAVIGATOR<br>(SPACING GUILD TALENT)
*You underwent trials to become a Guild Navigator, but you failed to meet the standards required… yet, for one brief moment, your consciousness became one with the universe. In times of stress, your mind sometimes repeats this, granting you a momentary insight of some kind.*
___
Whenever you gain one or more advancement points, the gamemaster will grant you an additional insight. This may relate to your current activities, or it may be completely unrelated.
###### Fai-Kai Discipline<br>(Suk Doctor Talent)
*You have complete mastery over your own reactions, allowing you to perform under intense pressure*
___
Whenever you attempt a Move or Discipline test in to maneuver or keep your composure in dire circumstances, you may re-roll a single d20. You can perfectly control your breathing, heart rate, and adrenaline levels.
___
###### FIND TROUBLE
*You know where to find the criminal element wherever you go.*
___
Wherever you are, once per adventure, you can always contact the criminal underworld or black market (as long as there is one in that area). This doesn’t mean they will be well disposed toward you, just that you can find a contact.

\columnbreak

###### GUILDSMAN<br>(SPACING GUILD TALENT)
*You have connections to the Spacing Guild, granting you more access to their resources than most. You are not a Navigator, but you may be an agent, representative, banker, diplomat, or similar associate of the Guild.*
___
Once per adventure, you may call upon your Spacing Guild connection to use Guild facilities or resources, or to organize a meeting with important persons within the Guild. You do not have the authority to make demands of the Guild itself. If you need to use Guild resources more than once during the course of an adventure, the second time adds 2 to Threat, the third time adds 4, and so forth, adding +2 to the cost each time, as your increased use risks drawing undue attention to you.
___
###### HIDDEN MOTIVES
*You are a master at concealing your intentions and motivations. Few truly know what drives you, even if they think they understand you.*
___
When an opponent fails an Understand or Communicate test against you, you may immediately create a trait which reflects a mistaken belief they have about you.
___
###### HYPERAWARENESS<br>(BENE GESSERIT TALENT)
*Your training has honed your awareness to an incredible degree, allowing you to notice details too small for others to perceive. Armed with these insights, you can uncover secrets and truths that others may be oblivious to.*
___
Whenever you spend Momentum to Obtain Information about the current situation, your current location, or a person you can currently observe, you may ask two questions for the first point of Momentum spent. Further, the limits of what others would be able to notice do not apply to you for any questions.

\pagebreakNum

###### IMPERIAL CONDITIONING<br>(SUK DOCTOR TALENT)
*Through intense psychological conditioning, you cannot take a human life, or cause a human to come to harm. This is a necessary step, for those with power and status must be free of the fear that their physicians might be assassins.*
___
You cannot willingly inflict harm upon or kill a human being. Any attempt to coerce you into such an action automatically fails, and you automatically succeed on any skill test to persuade another that you intend them no harm.
___
###### IMPROVED RESOURCES
*You are entrusted with greater access to the tools and resources you need to achieve your goals.*
___
You may increase the number of assets you possess by +1. This talent may be purchased multiple times.
___
###### IMPROVISED WEAPON
*You are able to turn the most innocuous items into deadly weapons at a moment’s notice.*
___
Once per scene you may create a Quality 0 asset (at no cost) that you can use in a personal or skirmish conflict. It might be a rock, broken bottle, or shard of glass, but it is enough to function as a weapon. The asset is removed at the end of any conflict it is used for, as it will be too badly damaged to use again.
___
###### Killer Medic (Suk Doctor Talent)
*Your Imperial Conditioning was broken, allowing you to use your medical and biological knowledge for harm.*
___
Whenever you attempt an Understand test to learn about an enemy, you generate one bonus Momentum point for each die you bought by adding to Threat. This bonus Momentum may only be used to create a Quality 0 asset representing a locally brewed poison, or to create a trait which represents a weakness you have discovered which you can exploit.

\columnbreak

###### MASK OF POWER
*You can intimate that you know more than you do about an enemy’s secrets.*
___
Once per scene you may create an asset (at no cost) such as blackmail evidence or an owed favor that will allow you to initiate an intrigue or espionage conflict with a person of your choosing. The asset is a lie, of course; you don’t have anything, but your target doesn’t know that. The asset is removed once the conflict is over, and if you are defeated the fact you were bluffing is exposed and you suffer an additional complication.
___
###### Master-at-Arms
*Your expertise in battle is considerable, and few can match your effectiveness in combat.*
___
At the start of a duel, skirmish, or battle scene, select a single asset that represents a melee weapon or a unit of troops. Due to your prowess, you may spend 1 Momentum to improve that asset’s Quality by 1 for the next conflict in this scene.
___
###### MASTERFUL INNUENDO
*You have a special knack for saying more than one thing at once, conveying one message with the literal meaning of your words and another with innuendo, allusions, and signals that only the intended recipients will understand.*
___
When you attempt a Communicate test, you may choose to increase the Difficulty of the test by +1 to conceal a hidden message within your words. You must state who is the intended recipient of this hidden message. People other than the intended recipient cannot discern that you have concealed another message, unless they have this talent, or some other ability to detect things which people cannot normally detect (such as the Hyperawareness talent).

\pagebreakNum

###### MENTAT DISCIPLINE (MENTAT TALENT)
*Intense mental conditioning and extensive training have developed your intellect into a potent and valuable thing. You can retain and process vast amounts of information at extraordinary speeds.*
___
You have almost perfect recall, for even the most complex data. When making an Understand test that applies to recalling data, one of the D20s in your pool may be considered to have rolled a 1 instead of rolling it.
___
###### MIND PALACE (MENTAT TALENT)
*You have exceptional recall and can reconstruct events and places you have experienced with perfect accuracy, allowing you to revisit them later.*
___
You may attempt a Difficulty 0 Understand test to recall a past event or a place you have previously been to. Momentum you generate on this test may be spent to recall facts and details about that event or location; this is treated like Obtain Information, but you may ask questions about things you have previously encountered, rather than merely those which are currently present in the scene
___
###### NIMBLE
*You’re quick on your feet, and few obstacles can impede you.*
___
When attempting a Move test to move over, around, or through difficult terrain or similar physical obstacles (such as during a duel or skirmish), you may reduce the Difficulty of the test by 2. If this reduces the Difficulty to 0, you may move over or around that obstacle freely as if it wasn’t there.

\columnbreak

###### OTHER MEMORY<br>(BENE GESSERIT TALENT)
*You have undergone the Agony attended by another Reverend Mother, and now you can draw upon the memories and wisdom of all your ancestors. In doing so, you have become a Reverend Mother of the Bene Gesserit,*
___
You must be a Reverend Mother of the Bene Gesserit (and have an appropriate trait reflecting this) to select this talent. If this talent is selected in play, another Reverend Mother must be on hand and in physical contact to pass this genetic memory on to you.
___
Whenever you attempt a test where knowledge of past events—even those which may have occurred many generations ago—would be beneficial, you score three automatic successes. You may also share your genetic memory with other Reverend Mothers at will.
___
###### PASSIVE SCRUTINY
*You are quick to notice details which may be of importance later.*
___
When you enter a scene, you may ask one question of the gamemaster as if you’d spent Momentum to Obtain Information.
___
###### PERFORMER
*Your skill with music or poetry helps to soothe and inspire your comrades.*
___
Once per scene you may entertain the group with a short performance. This might be playing the balliset, singing, reciting a poem, dancing, or even juggling. Once the performance is over you may add 1 to the group’s Momentum pool.

\pagebreakNum

###### PRANA-BINDU CONDITIONING<br>(BENE GESSERIT TALENT)
*You have absolute control over your body. Every muscle and every nerve is under your control, and you have even mastered your own body chemistry and metabolism.*
___
Whenever you attempt a Move or Discipline test which relies on your control of your body, you may re-roll a single d20. You can perfectly control your breathing, heart rate, and your internal organs (including the ability to choose whether to conceive a child, and to determine the child’s physical and genetic traits).
___
###### PRIORITY BOARDING<br>(SPACING GUILD TALENT)
*You can call in a few favors to ensure the Guild inspectors don’t take too long looking at your luggage.*
___
You don’t need to offer bribes to ensure Guild inspectors simply take your word for it that all your cargo and possessions are as they should be. This allows you to smuggle anything aboard a Guild ship. However, if something you have brought aboard creates problems for the Guild, you will lose this talent.
___
###### PUTTING THEORY INTO PRACTICE
*You’ve learned how to quickly turn newfound knowledge into a practical advantage.*
___
Once per scene, when you Obtain Information, you may create a trait for free, which must represent an advantage, opportunity, or weakness you’ve identified with the information you received.
___
###### RAPID MANEUVER
*You’re fast, able to cross ground, find the shortest route, and bring your tools to bear quicker than most.*
___
When attempting a skill test to reach a destination quickly when moving on foot or in a vehicle, reduce the Difficulty by 1. In a conflict, when moving an asset, you may move the asset an additional zone for 1 point of Momentum, rather than 2.

\columnbreak

###### RESILIENCE (SKILL) (FREMEN TALENT)
*It takes a lot to put you down in a conflict. You get back up more often than most.*
___
Usually you may only ‘Resist Defeat’ once per scene. You can do so twice per scene, but only when in a conflict using the listed skill.
___
###### RILE THE RABBLE
*Your position and influence allow you to rally others to your cause; but broken promises make for poor allies.*
___
At the start of conflict, you may create a Quality 0 asset that represents an ally or group of allies from the lower class whom you have spurred into action with your guile. If you need to use these allies again during the course of an adventure, the second time adds 2 to Threat, the third time adds 4, and so forth, adding +2 to the cost each time, as your increased use risks the rabble turning on you.
___
###### STIRRING RHETORIC
*You are an able public speaker, and your words carry weight and purpose.*
___
When you succeed at a Communicate test to address a group of people, you may select a number of those people equal to your Communicate skill. Those characters may re-roll a single d20 on the next test they attempt which uses the same drive that you used on your Communicate test.
___
###### SUBTLE STEP
*You’re well-versed in methods of avoiding notice, and you reveal little that you do not intend to.*
___
When you attempt a Move test to sneak or otherwise pass unseen through an area, or when you attempt to move an asset subtly during a conflict, the first extra d20 you purchase for the test is free.

\pagebreakNum

###### THE REASON I FIGHT (DRIVE)
*Skill is not the only factor in determining victory; those who want it more, and those who are driven by a greater sense of purpose, may triumph when they should have failed.*
___
When you select this talent, choose a single drive rated 6 or higher. When you attempt a Battle test using the chosen drive, and the drive’s statement aligns with the action being attempted, you may re-roll 1d20.
___
###### THE SLOW BLADE
*The slow blade pierces the shield. You’re well-versed in the subtle ways of avoiding an opponent’s defenses.*
___
When you make an attack during a duel or a skirmish using a melee weapon, and you buy one or more dice by spending Momentum, you may choose one of the enemy’s assets in the same zone as your attack; you can ignore that asset during your attack.
___
###### TO FIGHT SOMEONE IS TO KNOW THEM (SKILL)
*You are an expert in studying your foes in conflict, learning how they think and gleaning secrets from them based on how they move, attack, and defend.*
___
When you select this talent, choose a skill. When you win a conflict using the chosen skill, you gain two bonus Momentum points, which you may use to Obtain Information or to create a trait that represents some knowledge or insight you’ve gained about your opponent.
___
###### TSAI MEDICINE (Suk Doctor Talent)
*You can identify useful plants and herbs with a cursory inspection.*
___
Whenever you attempt an Understand test that involves plants, herbs, or other natural resources, you reduce the Difficulty by 2, to a minimum of 0.

\columnbreak

###### TWISTED MENTAT (MENTAT TALENT) 
*Your Mentat abilities were shaped and engineered by the Bene Tleilax to leave you unencumbered by such petty things as morality, taboo, or decency.*
___
Whenever you attempt an Understand test, you generate one bonus Momentum point for each die you bought by adding to Threat. This bonus Momentum may only be used to Obtain Information about the most effective ways to harm or inflict pain upon a person within the scene, or to create a trait which represents a weakness you have discovered which you can exploit. 
This Talent may only be chosen in character creation.
___
###### VERIFY (MENTAT TALENT)
*You have so much data at your fingertips you can see where it contradicts and determine where falsehoods lie.*
___
You may spend a point of Momentum to ask the gamemaster if a piece of information you have is true or false. You need not be making a skill test as with Obtain Information, and the data can be your supposition as much as a specific document or rumor. 
___
###### VOICE (BENE GESSERIT TALENT)
*You have been trained to modulate your voice to influence the subconscious minds of others. With this skill you can subtly manipulate others, alter motivations and moods, or even compel action from the unwilling.*
___
You may use Voice whenever you speak to someone else, though you must be able to observe them for a short while beforehand, and they must be able to hear you speak. When you use Voice, you may add one, two, or three points to Threat to score the same number of automatic successes on any Communicate test made to influence your chosen target. The greater the number of automatic successes, the more overt your use of Voice, which others may notice. Your training also allows you to buy those automatic successes on any test made to resist the effects of Voice.

## <br>Overview

</div>

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52039731781_0061433c97_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**his** chapter provides an overview of the core rules for playing the 2d20 system of ***Dune: Adventures in the Imperium.*** You can learn more about the rules for creating your character in [**Chapter 2: Creating Your Character**](#p10).

### Dice
***Dune: Adventures in the Imperium*** uses a single type of dice to resolve the actions a character may attempt and the situations they may face: twenty-sided dice, often referred to as a **d20**. Most of the time more than one die is rolled at once: these dice are collectively referred to as a **dice pool**. The number of dice being rolled are noted as Xd20, where X is the number of dice being rolled, so 2d20 means two twenty-sided dice are rolled.
### Scenes and Traits
All adventures in ***Dune: Adventures in the Imperium*** are broken down into scenes, which the gamemaster is responsible for setting up. Once the gamemaster has set up a scene, the players may take whatever actions they desire, and once there’s nothing else they can, or wish to, do in that place, the scene ends. Scenes also include descriptors called traits, which point out anything important about the scene’s time or place, or the characters or objects within it.
###### The Effect of Traits
In practice, traits have a simple impact on your character’s actions: if a trait is relevant to an action being attempted, it makes the action possible or impossible, or it makes the action easier or harder. Multiple traits can be applied to a situation at once, whether canceling one another out or adding to one another. Some especially intense or potent traits may actually be multiple identical traits added together: a battlefield might be shrouded in *Smoke*, or visibility might be reduced by *Thick Smoke 2*, with the number indicating that it counts as two traits.
- Because I am [personal trait], this activity is…
- Because of [situation or location trait], this activity is…
- Because I have [asset trait], this activity is…

\columnbreak

The end of each of those statements is either ‘easier’, ‘harder’, ‘possible’, or ‘impossible’. If the statement ends with ‘easier’, reduce the Difficulty, if the statement ends with ‘harder’, increase the Difficulty. If the statement ends with ‘possible’, then the activity can be attempted while the trait applies, while if it ends with ‘impossible’, then it can’t be attempted while that trait applies.
___
It’s also worth remembering that if a truth makes an action impossible, that doesn’t necessarily mean you can never attempt that action: rather, it may mean that the action is impossible unless you change the situation to make it possible.

### Skill Tests
Whenever your character takes action, and there is doubt in the outcome—failure is a possibility, or the result might depend on how well they succeed—the gamemaster asks you to make a skill test. When you make a skill test, the gamemaster tells you how difficult the skill test is, expressed as **Difficulty**.
___
Select one of your **skills** and one of your **drives** and add their scores together to make a target number. Then, roll two d20s:
- Each die that rolls equal to or under that target number is a **success**.
- Each die that rolls a 1 is a **critical success**, worth two successes.
___
If your character has a skill **focus** that would help in that action, then any die that rolls equal to or less than their skill is a critical success instead. Count your successes, and if you scored successes equal to or greater than the Difficulty, your character has passed the skill test and achieves what they set out to achieve.
___
Tests can also be augmented by the players spending points of **Momentum**, or hindered by the gamemaster spending points of **Threat**. A result of 20 creates a **complication** for the character making the test. We describe how players and the gamemaster can spend and acquire these later in this chapter.

\pagebreakNum

When a player makes a skill test, the gamemaster should determine the Difficulty of the task, which is rated 0–5. The player must get at least as many successes on the skill test result as the Difficulty to achieve the task. If they fail they may still opt to ‘succeed at a cost’. The gamemaster should determine the Difficulty as fairly as possible based of the task at hand. However, the gamemaster may then spend **Threat** to increase the set Difficulty to represent further complications to the task.

###### Drives in Skill Tests
When you wish to use a drive, you must check to see if the **drive statement** agrees with the action. If the drive statement clashes with the action—the 
drive doesn’t support the action, or the action goes against the drive—then the gamemaster may offer you a point of **Momentum** and ask you to make a choice about the drive: either comply with the drive, or challenge it. If you comply, you suffer an immediate complication on the action you’re attempting, which 
could include being unable to carry out the action. If you challenge the drive, you can use it in the skill test, but the statement is crossed out immediately after the skill test is resolved, and you can’t use that drive until you’ve recovered it—you now doubt how you feel about that drive, and can no longer rely on it. If you don’t want either of those options, you may refuse the point of Momentum and choose a different drive.
___
If any of your character’s drive statements are crossed out, then they are less certain of their drives, and of their place in the universe. It takes time, reflection, and counsel to clear away that uncertainty. At the end of any scene during which your character contemplated personal matters or discussed them with another character, you may ask the gamemaster to allow your character to recover a drive. If you don’t do this during play, it happens automatically between adventures, should no suitable opportunities arise. When your character recovers a drive, select a single drive which has had the statement crossed out, and do one of the following:

\columnbreak

- **New Statement:** Create a new statement for that drive, which should in some way reflect your character’s changed views and perspectives.
- **Changing Priorities:** Modify the score of that drive by –1 and choose the drive with the next lowest score to increase by +1 (so, if you’re reducing a drive with a score of 6, you would increase the one which had a score of 5). If this would mean that the drive is reduced to less than 6, then it no longer has a statement (and similarly, any drive increased to 6 gains a statement). If this doesn’t reduce the drive’s score to 5, then the statement may remain unchanged (and no longer crossed-out).

### Momentum
Whenever you score more successes than you needed on a skill test, each extra success becomes **Momentum**, which you can spend to improve the outcome of the skill test you’ve just passed. Any Momentum you don’t spend can be saved, and saved Momentum goes into a group pool for everyone to use. Up to 6 points of Momentum can be saved like this. Momentum can be used for several things,  including getting extra information about a situation, creating or changing traits in the scene, or buying extra dice for skill tests.
###### Using Momentum
- **Buying d20s** is one of the most common uses for Momentum. This is done before you roll the dice pool, but after the gamemaster decides on the Difficulty. The cost increases for each die purchased: the first die costs 1 point of Momentum, the second costs 2 Momentum, and the third costs 3. No more than three bonus d20s may be bought for a single skill test. You may pay for some or all this cost by adding to Threat instead of spending Momentum.
- **Create a Trait** allows you to define a new fact about the scene or situation. Spending 2 points of Momentum either creates a brand-new trait, changes an existing one, or removes one currently in play. When you create a trait, it must relate to the action you’ve just attempted, and it must be something that could reasonably result from that action.

\pagebreakNum

- **Create an Asset** works in the same way as creating a trait, but there are some limitations to the kinds of assets you can create. An asset created has a Quality of 0, and it should be useful in the current type of conflict. Assets created in this way are temporary and cease to exist at the end of the scene. Whatever the asset represents is discarded or ceases to be useful. You may spend 2 Momentum to make an Asset created during a scene permanent (at Quality 0) in which case it is added to the list of assets on your character sheet.
- **Obtain Information** allows you to learn more about the scene and situation. Each point of Momentum you spend allows you to ask the gamemaster one question about the current situation. The gamemaster must answer this question truthfully, but the answer doesn’t need to be complete: partial or incomplete answers that leave room for further questions are more common. The answers must reflect the skill you’ve used to gain the information, and it should be something that your character would be able to determine themselves. “You don’t know” or “You can’t tell” are valid answers from the gamemaster, but the gamemaster must refund any Momentum spent if they give answers like that.

### Threat
Where you and the other players have Momentum, the gamemaster has **Threat**. Threat works much the same as Momentum, but for your opponents and enemies. Threat can be used for the same things as Momentum, but the gamemaster can also use Threat to alter situations or the story in a few special ways. Threat represents perils, unforeseen dangers, and the potential for drama and excitement, and it rises and falls during play. In addition to this, if you’re low on Momentum, you canbuy extra dice by adding to Threat, essentially taking risks to get an advantage.

\columnbreak

### Complications
When you attempt a skill test, any dice which roll a 20 cause a **complication**. This doesn’t mean you’ve failed—you can suffer complications and still succeed if you get enough successes—but each complication does create an extra problem, and may be inconvenient, painful, or embarrassing.
___
The gamemaster can use a complication to inflict an immediate problem upon your character or the situation, which should relate in some way to the action you’ve just performed. This can often create a trait—a fact about the scene—which hinders or impairs your actions, by increasing the Difficulty of skill tests or making some actions impossible. These traits may be persistent problems, or they may be short-lived, lasting only long enough to affect the character’s next skill test.
___
You are not powerless in this situation, though. When you suffer a complication, you may choose to buy it off by adding 2 points of Threat to the gamemaster’s pool—in essence, avoiding a problem now in return for potential problems later. The gamemaster may also trade a complication you or another player has rolled for 2 points of Threat if they don’t wish to create an immediate problem or simply can’t think of one right now. If a non-player character suffers a complication, the gamemaster can buy it off by spending 2 points of Threat.
### Contests
In a contest, the character opposing you rolls first, and their number of successes becomes the Difficulty you need to roll against. Once they’ve rolled, you roll to see if you can beat them.  If you fail, the opposing character generates 1 point of Momentum for each success fewer than the Difficulty which you scored—i.e., if the Difficulty was 4, and you scored two successes, the opposing character would get 2 points of Momentum—and they may spend this Momentum immediately, as if they had succeeded at a skill test.

\pagebreakNum

### Extended Tasks
Some activities may take a while to complete, requiring ongoing effort over a prolonged period. This is especially useful when an ongoing action can be interrupted or cannot be completed all in one go.
___
These extended tasks occur entirely at the gamemaster’s discretion and can be used for a wide range of situations. When the gamemaster decides that a situation is an extended task—and this can be something caused during play, perhaps by spending Threat point or because of a complication—they choose how big the extended task is. This is called the **requirement**. Each passed skill test made toward completing an extended task scores one or more points, and when a total number of points have been scored equal to the requirement, then the extended task is complete, and whatever event or activity the task represented is resolved.

### Assistance
Assistance is when another character actively assists your action. The gamemaster may limit how many characters may assist a given skill test. Each assistant selects a drive and skill to create a target number of their own, based on how they are helping, and rolls 1d20 (assistants cannot buy extra dice themselves). Any successes they generate are added to the skill test you are attempting, so long as you score at least one success of your own. Any complications from anyone involved in the skill test apply to everyone.

## <br>Conflict Overview

</div>

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52041550341_d20071c7a0_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**onflict**  is inevitable in the Imperium. The interplay of wealth, power, influence, politics, greed, and ambition that forms most interactions between the Houses of the Landsraad, CHOAM, the Imperial Court, the Spacing Guild, the Bene Gesserit, and other factions, breeds strife and turmoil. This creates opportunities to exploit and crises to overcome, and the fortunes of any House, or any person, rise and fall with how they face the conflicts ahead of them.
- Conflict is not just physical combat, and any method to defeat an enemy with any tool can be a conflict.
- The ability and skill of each combatant is more important than the actual weapons used. A knife kills as well as a sword, although different weapons can provoke different advantages in different situations. These advantages are managed by applying traits.
- Each test in a conflict is an encounter and an exchange of blows or political moves, and does not represent a single thrust of a blade. Conflict is swift and deadly, in some cases resolved with a single dice test.
- Assets are often essential to allow the conflict to occur at all. While a fighter might choose to engage a foe unarmed, it is impossible to blackmail someone without something to blackmail them with. So, an asset or trait may often be required to make the conflict possible.
- Conflicts do not need to cause wounds or physically hurt a target. Many things might lead to their defeat, such as exhaustion, lack of resources, or losing allies or the respect of their peers. An enemy can be defeated without a drop of blood being shed.
- Complications suffered during a conflict represent actual hurt combatants suffer. They make winning more difficult but who got hurt the most doesn't define victory.
- Defeat does not mean death. While it often does in Dune, enemies can yield, be exiled, knocked out, or be stripped of resources.

\columnbreak
### Assets
Conflict revolves around the use of **assets**. An asset is anything which a character possesses or controls which they can use to protect themselves, overcome others, or otherwise achieve their goals. Each asset is useful in different circumstances,and can be used in a variety of ways: a company of House troops can be used during warfare to attack or defend, but they can also be used as guards to prevent infiltration during espionage, or in a parade to honor or awe a guest during negotiations or intrigue.
___
Assets also have a **Quality**, normally rated from 0 to 4. Most assets have a Quality of 0, with only special or elite versions offering a bonus. The higher an asset’s Quality, the more effective or impactful it is compared to other assets of a similar kind.
___
You can find more information on assets in [**Chapter 5: Assets**](#p42) and an asset listing on [**page 44**](#p44)
### Zones of Conflict
When a conflict begins, the gamemaster defines the area within which the conflict takes place. This may be a physical area or an abstract representation of the conflict, but in either case, it is divided into distinct zones, within which characters can move and use their assets. Zones can be any size or shape. A contest between two merchants might use two zones, each being a whole planet. A fight between some assassins in an alley might be a single zone, or even six different zones denoting different parts of the alley.
___
Some zones may have special effects (usually traits) which apply to assets or characters within them, or which are regarded as more or less important than others; a skirmish may have a zone which is full of hindering obstacles that make it harder to move, while a warfare conflict may denote particular zones as objectives which each side is eager to secure.

### Taking Action
When you take your turn, you may take a single action, to either move an asset or use an asset. You are welcome to suggest actions which aren’t covered below, and the gamemaster determines how to resolve them.
###### Move
You move one of your assets (or your character, in some cases) from its current location to any adjacent zone. You may spend 2 points of Momentum to move your chosen asset one additional zone, or to choose a second asset to move one zone.
___
When you move, you may choose to try and gain an additional benefit, but there is a risk to this. You may attempt to move in a **subtle** way, trying to avoid attention, or you may move in a **bold** manner that provokes a response. In either case, this requires a skill test, with a Difficulty of 2. If you pass the skill test, you gain an additional benefit, listed below.
- If you move an asset **subtly**, your subtlety limits your opponents’ ability to respond. If you pass, then you move your asset, and you may take an extra action immediately or allow an allied character to take a turn: your subtlety allows you to act again before your enemy can react.
- If you move an asset **boldly**, you provoke a hasty response from your opponent. If you pass, then you move your asset, and then you may move one of an opposing character’s assets: your daring ploy has provoked a reaction, just as you planned.
___
In either case, if you fail, you may not spend Momentum on additional movement, and one enemy may move a single asset one zone, as they react to your failed ploy.

\columnbreak

###### Use an An Asset
You may choose one of the assets you control and use it to achieve some other goal. You must declare what you are doing with the asset, and what effect you wish your action to have. Common examples of ways to use an asset include, but are not limited to:
- Attacking an opponent with the intent of harming or defeating them (see Attacks, Defeat, and Recovery).
- Attempting to remove an opponent’s asset from play.
- Attempting to create a new trait for the scene, or a new asset for your character or an ally.
- Attempting to overcome an obstacle in the environment.
- Attempting to gain information about the situation.
- Attempting to remove a trait or similar complication from an ally, or to aid a defeated ally.

Regardless of the desired outcome, this action always requires a skill test. If you pass the test, then you get the desired effect. Actions which directly affect a specific opponent are **contests** rather than skill tests: the opponent gets to resist the action taken against them. The final Difficulty of a contest is influenced by the assets the defender has.
___
Some outcomes may not be possible to achieve in a single action. These turn into **extended tasks**, where the character makes progress toward their goal bit by bit over several actions. The **requirement** for the extended test is usually based on the defender's skill. The number of points made toward the requirement of the extended task is equal to 1 plus the **Quality** of the asset used: more potent assets make progress faster.
___
**DEFENSIVE ASSETS**
<br>The attacker’s final Difficulty increases by +1 for each defensive asset in the target’s zone. Essentially, a defensive asset is a trait that can be used to increase the Difficulty of any attack to that zone.

\pagebreakNum

**TARGETING ASSETS**
<br>Denying assets to the enemy is a key element of conflict—the fewer assets they have, the harder it is for them to attack you or defend against your attacks—so targeting assets is likely to be a common choice of action.
___
First, select the asset you wish to target. Then describe how you are trying to remove that asset from play, and make a skill test. Typically speaking, targeting an asset is a skill test with a Difficulty of 2. If the asset is being wielded directly by a character—as in, it is an object in their hands—then it is a contest instead.
___
If the test is passed, then the outcome depends on what kind of asset has been targeted. An intangible asset is destroyed. A tangible asset is set aside, unable to be used by their owner, but continuing to exist; that asset can be recovered as an action, or at the end of the scene.

###### Attacks, Defeat, and Recovery
Any action where the goal is to defeat an opponent is classified as an attack, and defeated opponents are no longer able to participate in that conflict: they may be injured or even dead, they may have been forced out of a social gathering, or they’re otherwise incapable of continuing to affect the conflict.
___
Making an attack is always a **contest**, because it affects another character. The type of contest, and the skill and assets involved, can differ depending on what kind of combat you’re engaging in (personal, espionage, etc.), as well as the circumstances of that conflict.

\columnbreak

**CONTEST RESULTS**
<br>If you **win** the contest, then you successfully attack the enemy. If you **lose** the contest, then your attack has failed, and the action ends.
___
**SUCCESSFUL ATTACK OUTCOMES**
<br>If the attack is against a minor non-player character or minor supporting character, then a successful attack against them means they are defeated.
___
If the attack is against a notable or major non-player character, a notable supporting character, or a main player character, then defeating the character is an **extended task**, with a requirement equal to the most appropriate skill of the character. Each successful attack scores points equal to 1 plus the Quality of the asset used;  Once the task’s requirement has been reached, 
the character is defeated.
___
**RESISTING DEFEAT**
<br>Once per scene, if your character would be defeated, you may choose to Resist Defeat. Resisting defeat prevents that defeat from occurring—your character remains active in the scene. 
___
When you choose to Resist Defeat, it costs 1 point of Momentum, or adds 1 to Threat, and causes you to suffer a complication (non-player characters opposing the players spend Threat instead). This complication could cause the loss of one of your assets, an advantage the enemy has gained over you, or some hindrance suffered avoiding the defeat.

## <br>Tools and Resources

</div>

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52041797369_8252688c8a_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**s** mentioned in [**Chapter 4: Conflict**](#p38), characters employ assets to manipulate and overcome opponents and obstacles during difficult situations. These assets come in a wide variety of forms and types, ranging from personal items like knives, shield belts, portable poison snoopers, or symbols of office; vehicles such as ornithopters and groundcars; to the service of groups of servants or soldiers, or agents like spies and informants; or resources such as valuable goods or raw materials. Assets may also take the form of information known about an enemy, rumors spread to discredit them, or similarly intangible advantages.
### Structure of<br>an Asset
All assets share a common structure that lets you see what they’re useful for and how effective they are at a glance.
###### Name
Functionally, an asset works as a trait with the asset’s name. An asset’s name will normally serve as a basic description of what the asset is.
###### Tangibility
Some assets are **tangible**—representing physical things, from weapons and other small possessions, to vehicles such as groundcars and ornithopters, to squads of troops and the services of agents and other subordinates. Others are **intangible**, representing contacts, favors, the ability to call upon friends, and similar useful things which have no physical presence in their own right.
###### Rarity
Additionally, some assets are hard to come by and must be either purchased or provided specially by the character’s patrons or House. These are usually expensive or use advanced technology such as shields and ornithopters. If a character is trying to create such as asset during play the gamemaster may not allow it without a good reason why they would have access to such a thing. Other assets can be considered **ubiquitous** and are freely available almost everywhere, and easily brought into a scene with a Momentum/Threat spend.
___
When characters choose their starting assets, or gain assets with advancement, and they opt for a ubiquitous asset as one of their starting assets it should also have another aspect that will grant it a broader range of useful applications, such as the following:
- The asset can be easily concealed.
- A sign of sigil on the asset proves the owner has the backing of someone powerful.
- The asset has a secret compartment.
- The asset can be used as another asset (such as the way a crysknife represents more than just a weapon to the Fremen).

###### Keywords
Keywords provide an additional context for how an asset may function and the situations where it may be useful. An asset may have 2–3 keywords, most of which may only be a single word. The keywords don’t do anything themselves—there are no specific rules which refer to them—but they can be useful prompts when determining if or how an asset applies to a situation.
###### Quality
Some assets have a Quality rating if they are of a better Quality than usual. An ordinary example of any particular asset, even a rare one, has a Quality of 0. An ornithopter is no better than a knife as a knife isn’t much use if you need to fly, just like an ornithopter is only useful to escape a duel. So, a knife with a Quality rating is better-balanced, more durable, or sharper than an ordinary knife. An ornithopter with Quality is faster, easier to handle, or stronger than a standard ornithopter. The higher the Quality, the more advanced or special the asset is.
| Quality  | Description |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  0  | Ordinary, average, or basic in function and effect. |
|  1  | Of above-average quality and effectiveness, or unusual in some way. |
|  2  | Highly effective or very potent. |
|  3  | Extremely well-made or effective. |
|  4  | Spectacular or devastating in effect and function. |

## <br>Assets Listing

<img src='https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52039731781_0061433c97_o.png' style='height:82px; margin: 0px 4px 0px 0px;' align='left' />**o** help you create and understand the array of available assets, we offer the following examples of items and technology to be found throughout the Imperium. We have divided them along the same lines as the types of conflict, to make it easier to see how they might apply. But any asset can be used for any purpose in the right situation. It is up to each player to try and consider how best to use the assets at their command.
- Personal assets are items that can be carried by individual characters. They apply most often in agent level play. Weapons of this type might be used in a personal duel or a skirmish conflict.
- Warfare assets are items too large for one person and turn a skirmish into a battlefield. They are usually heavy ordnance, soldiers, or vehicles. 
- Espionage assets are used for assassination, stealth, and information gathering. They come in a variety of forms: some may be personal items, other may be intangible ones, some are agents, spies and even Face Dancers. These assets often suit both agent and architect level play.
- Intrigue assets are used in social occasions and are often intangible assets. They are based on favor, debts, and reputation, but also include informers and servants.

## Personal Assets<br>Weapons
###### Blade
Blades are as ancient as Old Terra and are just as critical for defense now as then. The creation of the personal shield has elevated them into common use. Blades come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and forms. Types of blades include daggers, swords, and rapiers, but many other specialized or culturally specific blades exist.
<br>**Keywords:** Melee Weapon
___
###### Bodkin
These tiny, well-crafted blades are used for personal defense and are commonly used by assassins and typically kept in wrist-sheaths. While not useful for cutting, they are exceptional for stabbing attacks. Several noted cutpurses use them as an aid in their crimes.
<br>**Keywords:** Concealable, Melee Weapon, Quiet
___
###### Crysknife
This sacred blade of the Fremen is crafted from the tooth of a dead sandworm. An average crysknife possesses a 0.2-meter curved milky-white double blade with a finger-ridged handle. Part of the Fremen tradition surrounding the blade states that one can never be re-sheathed without first drawing blood.

Crysknives come primarily in two types: unfixed and fixed. Unfixed blades must stay close to a person’s electrical field, or they will disintegrate. Fixed blades are treated with a unique process that allows them to be stored.
<br>**Keywords:** Melee Weapon, Sacred
___
###### Dartgun
The Assassins’ Handbook sings the praises of the humble dartgun. With its small, inconspicuous rounds coated in War of Assassins-approved poisons, this small weapon is a choice instrument for enacting political and diplomatic change among the Landsraad. Compact and easily hidden, dartguns make for versatile tools.
<br>**Keywords:** Ranged Weapon, Quiet, Small

\columnbreak

###### Hunter-Seeker
When stealth and anonymity is paramount, assassins employ hunter-seekers. As small as five centimeters, these compact devices float using a suspensor. Due to the universal prohibition on thinking machines, a hunter-seeker requires a nearby operator to control it, and due to limited visibility are difficult to use against immobile targets. These Assassins’ Handbook-approved instruments tunnel through skin and muscle to destroy hearts, brains, and other vital organs. Noble children learn to identify these weapons early on in their lives, and how to avoid them by standing resolutely still.
<br>**Keywords:** Remote-operated, Short-ranged, Stealthy
___
###### Kindjal
These large curve-bladed knives range from 18–22 cm long. Their use is common among all noble houses who have been taught in their use since the Faufreluches days. The ability of these blades to safely bypass shields has increased their popularity to the point that they are commonplace.
<br>**Keywords:** Long Blade, Melee Weapon, Traditional
___
###### Lasgun
The most commonly used firearm in the Imperium. These continuous wave-laser projectors are fitted into either pistols or rifles, enhancing their range. The beam forms a tight, narrow laser. Lasguns use an energy cell capable of firing 30 shots before needing to be replaced.

Lasguns are used to kill unarmored targets or destroy obstacles, and are never used in situations where shields may be present; a lasgun laser that contacts an active shield produces an atomic blast that will likely end all parties involved.
<br>**Keywords:** Laser, Ranged Weapon
___
###### Maula Pistol
The maula pistol is an assassin’s weapon. These pistols have a spring-loaded trigger and can launch poison darts or other projectiles with considerable accuracy up to 40 meters. The needle gun is a variant of the maula pistol.
<br>**Keywords:** Concealable, Ranged Weapon, Quiet

\pagebreakNum

###### Shigawire Garrote
Shigawire comes from the Narvi narviium ground vine found on Salusa Secundus and III Delta Kaising. Its primary use is in holding and transmitting messages. However, the Sardaukar were the first ones to use the strong, thin filaments as garrotes. They now carry them as standard issue, often blended into one’s hair or concealed elsewhere
<br>**Keywords:** Common, Melee Weapon, Subtle
___
## Personal Assets<br>Armor & Clothing
###### Jubba Cloak
These durable and versatile cloaks are a boon to survivalists. The jubba cloak is a flowing cloak with various styles and functions. The cloaks are easily converted into a hammock or make-shift tent and regulate temperatures by absorbing or radiating heat.
<br>**Keywords:** Adaptable, Fashion, Survival
___
###### Personal Shield
The Holtzman Effect is used to create a protective field of energy around a person. While shields provide incredible protection, they allow slow-moving objects to pass through them. Shields are affordable for most Houses and are commonplace with nobles and their retainers, with even some merchants able to have one
<br>**Keywords:** Defense, Holtzman, Protection
___
###### Stillsuit
These full-body suits are essential for survival on Arrakis outside the cities. Their primary function is to preserve the body’s moisture by absorbing sweat, urine, and other body fluids. The stillsuit processes these fluids by filtering impurities, recycling captured fluids into drinkable water collected in catchpockets, which is drunk through a tube. The key components of the stillsuit are filt-plug (collects moisture from exhaled air), faceflap (face mask that protects the wearer from fine dust), catchtube (connects the catchpockets), and stillsuit cap or hood.
<br>**Keywords:** Arrakis, Fremen, Survival

\columnbreak

## Personal Assets<br>Tools & Equipment
###### Cibus Hood
A malleable, flexible black mask created by the Ixians. When placed over a wearer’s face, it completely conceals all their features. The device does not emit any energy readings. When using the hood, the wearer appears as a regular person in passing and looks different when viewed a second or third time.
<br>**Keywords:** Disguise, Infiltration, Technology
___
###### Dune Tarot
This tarot deck is themed specifically around Arrakis, the Fremen, and Spice Melange. Some use it to play card games, but many claim that using the deck actually grants a small degree of prescient insight into the future, especially if used alongside the spice.
<br>**Keywords:** Cards, Gambling, Prescience
___
###### Cheops
Cheops is a nine-level pyramid chess game with the dual objective of putting your opponents' king in check and placing your own queen at the pyramid's apex. It includes a number of modern pieces with interesting three-dimensional moves. It is favored by strategists, warmasters, and mentats.
<br>**Keywords:** Chess, Gambling, Strategy
___
###### Glowglobe
These small devices use the Holtzman effect to hover near the user, providing illumination. The color of the light differs based on when it was constructed, and it is powered by an organic battery. They are easily switched on or off with a touch.
<br>**Keywords:** Hovering, Light
___
###### Krimskel Fiber Rope
Ecaz hufuf vine is woven together from strands to form Krimskel fiber. When pulled, the fiber will 'claw' itself together into a tighter and stronger composite. Attempting to escape being bound with the fiber instead reinforces the bonds.
<br>**Keywords:** Capture, Prisoners, Utility

\pagebreakNum
###### Medpack
A medpack is a small kit used for field medicine. It contains wound dressings, high-powered stimulants, and newskin ointment. It also contains a chemistry kit for synthesizing treatments from local plants and herbs.
<br>**Keywords:** Medical, Technology
___
###### Musical Instrument
Music is the universal language, so they say. In the time of the Imperium, many instruments have been perserved by various cultures, while entirely new instruments have been devised alongside them.
<br>**Keywords:** Music, Culture, Art
___
###### Poison Snooper
These mechanical devices scan edible substances before they are ingested; a handheld box with an extendable hose is placed over the substance. An alarm sounds if the snooper detects poison. More advanced models have the option to vibrate rather than emit an audible noise.
<br>**Keywords:** Detection, Security, Technology
___
###### Suspensor, Personal
Personal suspensors are frequently placed into belts, chairs, and other portable objects, using Holtzman fields to nullify local gravity. The height and mass of the energy consumed is based on the weight of the object lifted. Personal suspensors do not have the power to allow flight or stop falls from very high distances before running out of power.
<br>**Keywords:** Anti-gravity, Holtzman, Mobility
___
## Espionage Assets<br>Drugs
###### Elacca Drug
Elacca wood of Ecaz is burned to create this potent narcotic. It sends users into an intense rage that suppresses an individual’s survival instincts and changes their skin to a peculiar carrot colored hue. The most common application of this narcotic is in drugging slave-combatants for the gladiatorial arenas. However, some soldiers do choose to ingest it willingly before a battle to harden their resolve.
<br>**Keywords:**  Bloodlust, Drug, Orange-tinged Skin

\columnbreak

###### Poison
Poisoning a friend, foe, or family member through food and drink is a time-honored practice in the Imperium. Many lethal poisons of Old Terra can be acquired in the Imperium, along with a number of unique poisons, allowed under the rules of kanly and found in the Assassin's Handbook.
<br>**Keywords:** Expensive, Poisonous, Stealthy
___
###### Sapho
A juice created from the roots of plants on the planet Ecaz. The juice is refined into a high-energy drink that amplifies mental powers.
<br>**Keywords:** Addictive, Mentat, Stimulant
___
###### Semuta
Ecaz’s valuable elacca tree also produces semuta, a highly addictive narcotic. As opposed to the frenzy that the elacca drug causes in its users, semuta evokes a euphoric bliss when paired with atonal semuta music. A semuta user can counteract the effects with an antidote.
<br>**Keywords:** Addictive, Euphoric, Expensive, Ingestible
___
###### Spice Melange
The most valuable commodity in the known universe, only found on the desert planet of Arrakis. Spice melange can effectively be used as currency, or be ingested to receive a small degree of insight into the future.
<br>**Keywords:** Drug, Expensive, Prescience
___
###### Verite
Yet another specialty product of Ecaz, verite is a plant that grows on only that planet. After a specific processing technique, it becomes a narcotic. Verite smashes through a user’s willpower, compelling them to tell the truth. It is impossible to resist.
<br>**Keywords:** Expensive, Ingestible, Narcotic

## Espionage Assets<br>Information
###### Bene Gesserit Coded Dots
To communicate with each other in secret, the Bene Gesserit developed a system of raised or engraved dots that can be left on almost any surface. Sisters can hide messages for each other in unexpected places that even skilled spies won’t find. To read the intelligence left for her, a Bene Gesserit Sister runs her fingertips along the dots.
<br>**Keywords:** Bene Gesserit, Stealthy, Uncommon
___
###### Communicator
A small device behind the ear, communicators connect to a satellite communinet and allow communications. The communication system can be hacked and used as a weapon against other Houses.
<br>**Keywords:** Communication, Information, Universal
___
###### Distrans
Distrans is a technology that enables a user to implant information in an animal and turn it into an unknown accomplice in conveying messages. The animal is primed with a neural implant, and using a device, the user speaks a command word and message. The recipient of the animal retrieves the message by repeating the command word. The animal relays the message through chirps, screeches, and other noises that approximate words. Birds are frequently used as couriers, with bats being the most sought after for their nocturnal abilities.
<br>**Keywords:** Animal, Courier, Stealth
___
###### Filmbook
The filmbook is an imprint of shigawire that records and plays video information via hologram technology. The exact subject varies per book, though shigawire is only found on Salusa Secundus and III Delta Kaising.
<br>**Keywords:** Shigawire, Training

\columnbreak

###### Illicit Recording
It is human nature to want things that one isn’t allowed to have. Drugs, flesh, money… whatever the laws of the Landsraad forbid, or the rules of a House prohibit, human nature desires more. Many are prepared to do just that, but some special individuals are prepared to go a little further… ‘accidentally‘ recording such illicit activities in one form or another, before filing it away, ready and waiting for the moment when it becomes useful.
<br>**Keywords:** Damaging, Embarrassing
___
###### Intelligence
Illicit information comes in many forms in the Imperium. Tiny minimic films made from shigawire, Bene Gesserit coded dots, decoders, intercepted communications, spy-eyes, spies, and traitors can all provide different insights into the trundling gears of the Imperium. Ixian dampers and cones of silence exist in the Imperium for good reason. Trust no one.
<br>**Keywords:** Secret Information
___
###### Map
Guild bribery, intentional deceit, financial dishonesty, and geographical fraud all contribute to flawed or incomplete maps of the various planets and systems within the Imperium. Accurate maps are helpful for survival and planning but finding them is not always easy. Many Houses and communities have their reasons to hide this kind of information.
<br>**Keywords:** Secret Information
___
###### Stolen File
Politics requires its players to wear different masks at different times, depending on the circumstances they find themselves in. A staunch ally of the Atreides today may become the bosom companion of the Harkonnens tomorrow. It’s the way of things and entirely accepted, so long as no one can ever prove those previous allegiances. As long as no one has, say, a record of payments made to an assassin to kill a Harkonnen aide. Or the footage of an asset stealing from the Atreides spice supply. Of course, getting hold of such proofs can be difficult, but worth it. Most definitely worth it
<br>**Keywords:** Damaging, Illicit, Subtle

## Intrigue Assets<br>Contacts
###### Assassin
Knowledgeable in the rules, regulations, and permissible techniques from the Assassins’ Handbook, assassins are not rogue actors working outside the system but rather a critical part of how the Imperium functions. By adhering to the restrictions set out in the War of Assassins under the Great Convention and Guild Peace, assassins help to keep warfare between the Houses of the Landsraad civil... or at least with minimal civilian casualties. Assassins are clever, dangerous, and often placed in positions of power within the Great Houses.
<br>**Keywords:** Cunning, Dangerous, Elusive
___
###### Black Market Trader
You need things, naturally. Some of those things are easy to obtain, purchasable in any bazaar, any market, any shop. Other things require sourcing more carefully. That’s what black market contacts are for. Anything you need, they can usually find. Yes, they charge a lot, but you get what you pay for. And you might end up looking for some very obscure and illegal stuff. So, you’re going to need someone trustworthy, or at least, trustworthy enough.
<br>**Keywords:** Experienced, Resourceful, Well-known
___
###### Debtor
Someone owes you. Whether it is cash, drugs, or whatever, they have borrowed from you in some way. When needed, you can call in that debt and force them to provide you with something in return. You can do this gradually, always insinuating that the loan you extended to them is about to be withdrawn, or you can do it suddenly, demanding payment now! Of course, as necessary as this might be, it tends to cost an agent their asset. Once burned, or once the favor has been called in and revealed to be a quid pro quo, the relationship between the agent and their asset is usually done. Burned. In a few cases, with the most subtle and most expert of agents—those with Mentat training perhaps—it might be possible to avoid such terminal consequences, but this is rare.
<br>**Keywords:** Desperate, Frightened, Paranoid

\columnbreak

###### Old Friendship
A favor provided by an agent to someone, in the hope they might become an asset, leaves no trace. An unexpected sum of money is suspicious. It draws attention to itself, or it makes its owner act foolishly. A knife leaves marks, or, worse, a dead body which must be hidden or explained. These are clumsy methods. A true agent, an agent worthy of the trust placed in them, does not leave such obvious paths for a hunter to follow. Where is the harm in a favor, however? It’s simply a friend trying to help a friend, after all. A perfectly normal, natural thing to want to do. Of course, gaining trust and building a relationship is not easy. It involves work, carefully assessing the intended target and determining what it is that they wish they could have, what it is that they need. But once you have this knowledge, with care, you can 
maintain this friendship for years if necessary.
<br>**Keywords:** Faithful, Reliable, Wily
___
###### Service
Everything comes with a price. The universe depends on trade. Everything depends on commerce. But for those who are truly powerful, or those who understand how true power works and where it lies, currency is worthless. Favors… now, favors have value. Favors are the only currency, outside of spice, that holds its worth, that isn’t susceptible to the fluctuations of market prices. You provide these services to large organizations and in return, you get to know where they send the resources you offer. They know they can call on you when things get tough. And you know you can call on them.
<br>**Keywords:** Reliable, Valuable
___
###### Spy
The Landsraad represents all the Houses Major and Minor in the Imperium but is only one of its ruling bodies. With so many different parts to the Imperium affecting wide-ranging policy, political spies are rampant. Many Houses try to infiltrate the Padishah Emperor’s own government. Others attempt to blackmail rival or lesser Houses with the information they gather. For a member of a House, it is difficult to determine who to trust even within one’s own family.
