The term Sayyadina was used by the Freman to describe their lower-ranking priestesses who had not yet passed within to become Reverend Mothers.

Giedi Prime is a heavily industrialized planet with a low photosynthetic potential. House Harkonnen was most famous for its underhanded and sinister political tactics, and for an ancient feud it maintained with another Great House, House Atreides. In addition, House Harkonnen had a reputation for ambition, malevolence, hatred and brutality. It was typically ruled by a Siridar Baron.

Answer: Harkonnen

Jessica was given to Duke Leto of House Atreides to try to make peace between the two Houses. Jessica was also supposed to bear a daughter to marry to a Harkonnen to again make peace between them. House Corrino is the Imperial family and the Bene Gesserit are not a House.

From Quiz "Dune" Part 2

Answer: Beast

He inherited the Harkonnen penchant for sadism and cruelty, but not the cunning. He was best known for his tyrannical and vastly ineffective governance of Arrakis during the Harkonnen fiefdom of Arrakis, as well as during the insurgency of the Freman led by Paul Muad'Dib. He earned the nickname "Beast" when he killed his father, Abulurd Harkonnen.

From Quiz "Dune" Part 2

Answer: Truth-sayer

Little known fact: Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam played an important role in the breeding programs of the Sisterhood on Wallach IX, and was the birth mother of Lady Jessica, although the breeding charts list Jessica's birth mother as Tanidia Nerus, Mohiam's own birth name. Mohiam conceived her daughter through a vicious rape by the Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, who attacked Mohiam out of pure rage and disgust when she requested he impregnate her. He meant to show the Sisterhood that he could not be used as a pawn in their schemes, but his satisfaction in overpowering was short-lived, for Mohiam, using her Bene Gesserit training, transferred a degenerative disease into the Baron via intercourse, mutating his once-beautiful male form into a bloated, obese monstrosity. Lady Jessica's parentage was kept secret from her.

From Quiz "Dune" Part 2

Answer: Gurney Halleck

Along with Thufir Hawat and Duncan Idaho, Halleck was one of Paul's principal teachers during his early years on Caladan. He was a ruthless, yet noble and romantic warrior of enormous talent. Described as "an ugly lump of a man", he was regarded the most loyal of friends to those he loved, and to those he hated there were few enemies more terrifying.

From Quiz "Dune" Part 2

Answer: Alec Newman

William Hurt portrayed Paul's father Leto, Kyle MacLachlan was Paul in the 1984 version of "Dune" and Jürgen Prochnow brought the role of Leto to the 1984 version. Alec Newman reprised the role of Paul Atreides in the sequel "Children of Dune." I will have one more quiz coming soon for this mini-series, then I will make three more for "Children of Dune." Look for them!
