Let me stress right from the get-go that this tome utilises the ONE ROLL ENGINE, as devised by GREG STOLZE and popularised by SHANE IVEY and DENNIS DETWILER of ARC DREAM. I do not own any rights or even claim any ownership of their game mechanics. In fact, if you even want to use this book, you need a copy of the REIGN rules (available imminently in an inexpensive pocket book version and PDF, so you really have no excuse). This game is also based on the novel DUNE by Frank Herbert. The rights to DUNE and the CHRONICLES OF DUNE do not belong to me and if there is any challenge to this fan work, holders of the license or intellectual property of DUNE and its related products should contact me at [email protected] immediately.

  • Chapterhouse: Dune Frank Herbert April 1985 Those Who Would Repeat
    Chapterhouse: Dune Frank Herbert April 1985 Those who would repeat the past must control the teaching of history. -Bene Gesserit Coda When the ghola-baby was delivered from the first Bene Gesserit axlotl tank, Mother Superior Darwi Odrade ordered a quiet celebration in her private dining room atop Central. It was barely dawn, and the two other members of her Council -- Tamalane and Bellonda -- showed impatience at the summons, even though Odrade had ordered breakfast served by her personal chef. "It isn't every woman who can preside at the birth of her own father," Odrade quipped when the others complained they had too many demands on their time to permit of "time-wasting nonsense." Only aged Tamalane showed sly amusement. Bellonda held her over-fleshed features expressionless, often her equivalent of a scowl. Was it possible, Odrade wondered, that Bell had not exorcised resentment of the relative opulence in Mother Superior's surroundings? Odrade's quarters were a distinct mark of her position but the distinction represented her duties more than any elevation over her Sisters. The small dining room allowed her to consult aides during meals. Bellonda glanced this way and that, obviously impatient to be gone. Much effort had been expended without success in attempts to break through Bellonda's coldly remote shell. "It felt very odd to hold that baby in my arms and think: This is my father," Odrade said. "I heard you the first time!" Bellonda spoke from the belly, almost a baritone rumbling as though each word caused her vague indigestion. She understood Odrade's wry jest, though.

  • The Softer Side of Dune: the Impact of the Social Sciences on World-Building1 Kara Kennedy
    The Softer Side of Dune: The Impact of the Social Sciences on World-Building1 Kara Kennedy ABSTRACT: Looking at Dune as one of the bridges between the ‘hard’ science fiction of the 1950s and the ‘soft’ science fiction of the New Wave, it is significant that author Frank Herbert chooses to create a world where technological prowess is not the focus, where the culture is still haunted by the Butlerian Jihad, when machines were used to enslave humankind. This historical context justifies an attitude of suspicion and fear toward technology, which then enables Herbert to concentrate on making a universe centered on the development of the human mind and body. In the Imperium, then, new orders of enhanced humans seem necessary and natural, including the Mentats, with their logical, computer-like functions; and the Spacing Guild, with its enhanced Navigators who alone can guide ships traveling through space. Furthermore, having already set up suspicion about the stereotypically male-dominated realm of technology, Herbert is perhaps better positioned to realistically depict the most powerful order in the novel, the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood, as an all-female one, whose ‘soft’ power over society is significant, from the gom jabbar test to Truthsaying to the Voice. Yet Herbert still places all of these new orders in a familiar feudal governing structure with emperors and family clans to maintain a link with real-world institutions. Ultimately, Herbert relies heavily on the social sciences to create a world focused on the development of the human mind and body rather than technology, and proves that a focus on the human offers a tremendous opportunity for building an interesting and believable universe.

    T. Meza 1 Hugvísindasvið The Bene Gesserit in Frank Herbert’s Dune An analysis. Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Luis Felipe Torres Meza December 2010 T. Meza 2 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Enska The Bene Gesserit in Frank Herbert’s Dune An Analysis. Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs. Luis Felipe Torres Meza Kt.: 250786-3959 Leiðbeinendur: Matthew Whelpton og Valgerður Guðrún Bjarkadóttir December 2010 T. Meza 3 Abstract. The following is a work of literary analysis involving Frank Herbert’s Dune, which is the first published tome of what later became known as the Dune Chronicles. The Chronicles comprise six books authored by Frank Herbert many of which are referred to here, but this work centres only on Dune. This literary analysis focuses on the Bene Gesserit, an organization of women which plays a large part in the development of Herbert’s novel. The main objective of the discussion is to describe this conglomerate of characters and analyse it as one single collective character with its own story and its own characteristics in order to expand the understanding of Dune. Although much work about this science fiction novel exists today, the implications of the Bene Gesserit have not been adequately discussed. There are critics who condemn Herbert’s depiction of women in his universe based on the comparison of power between the novel’s protagonist hero, Paul Atreides and his Bene Gesserit counterparts. Another important tendency in Dune criticism is the inaccurate view that limits the understanding of the Bene Gesserit as a religious organization, although Dune itself provides readers with evidence to the contrary.

  • ALTERNATIVE FASTPLAY MANUAL for DUNE (D10) RPG (Version: 1.0) INTRODUCTION
    ALTERNATIVE FASTPLAY MANUAL FOR DUNE (d10) RPG (Version: 1.0) INTRODUCTION Well, this is not my first RPG module modified for a well-known concept, or for my own creations. But certainly the most important one. And it is called “Dune: Legacy of Landsraad”. My part was the easiest for all, during the creation of the module (at least this very fist edition, I really do not know what additions will be on for the future times.). To choose a well-known novel for setting up the concept and to choose a mathematical dice system for playing the campaigns. I did both, and I think I chose the best ones of two different stages. Story Telling System (of White wolf Productions for sure) and Dune: Chronicles of The Imperium (a RPG setting of Last Unicorn Games). If you ask “Why these?”, the answer would be simple… The Story Telling System is easy to learn and to operate. It leaves more area for a Game Master to think about the storyline or players to “feel inside the campaign” than other types of dice-systems with loads of tables, rules etc. Because Dune RPG surely needs relaxed brains during a game session. And the issue about Dune ... Well, it is more than a fantasy Sci-Fi novel. To read and understand it requires a strong sense of sociology, genetics and population, history, science and industry, politics, warfare, heritages, religion and economics. In other words, “all the serious intellectual data of the world”. I don’t think that a routine and ordinary D&D player would/could find something similar in Dune Campaigns.
