The Human Species of Dune: A Full Genetic and Cultural Primer
Over 10,000 years of evolution, war, and manipulation have fractured humanity into something far stranger than what we once were. In this long-form lore deep-dive, we explore the 26 major post-human species, subcultures, and genetic divergences from Frank Herbert’s Dune universe—including the Bene Gesserit, Navigators, Face Dancers, Gholas, and more. This is not just a story of politics and prophecy. It is the anatomy of a species reshaped by memory, prophecy, power, and survival. Spot all the easter eggs from other franchises?
