Chapterhouse: Dune	comment	Chapterhouse: Dune is the sixth and final installment in Frank Herbert's Dune Chronicles. It was published in 1985 by Putnam and rose to #2 on the New York Times Bestseller List.Chapterhouse: Dune continues shortly after the events of Heretics of Dune. The Honored Matres have overrun the Old Imperium and destroyed all Tleilaxu worlds and the planet Rakis, cutting off the supply of the precious Spice. With the Bene Gesserit forced to flee at every turn, Mother Superior Darwi Odrade is fighting for time to put her plan to save the sisterhood and the Imperium in motion.On Chapterhouse, the last remaining sandworm has begun the Spice cycle anew, turning the once lush and fertile world into desert. In addition, the sisterhood has the last remaining Tleilaxu Master, Scytale, in their possession, giving them the technology of the Axlotl tanks in order to make both gholas and artificial spice. Odrade chooses to use this technology to restore Miles Teg to lead the sisterhood into combat. Odrade and her inner-circle deduce that the Honored Matres are on the run from something even worse out in the Scattering.The Honored Matre Murbella, brought back to Chapterhouse, trains as a Bene Gesserit. Duncan Idaho, locked in the no-ship in order to avoid prescient detection, continues his relationship with Murbella and serves the sisterhood as Mentat and weapons master. Duncan has several odd visions and dreams of alien technologies and an elderly couple watching from afar. Sheeana also continues her training and initiation into the sisterhood, where the Missionaria has plans for her.Will Odrade's plan come to fruition in time to save the Bene Gesserit sisterhood? Who are the Honored Matres and why have they returned from the Scattering? Who does Duncan keep seeing in his visions and what do they want?

With complete control over their biochemical makeup, they can slow down or speed up the aging process at will or choose to look younger or older while chemically being another age.

If someone outside the inner-Bene Gesserit organization were to notice the true extent of their powers it could lead to their destruction from superstitious outsiders as well as loss of influence over the Empire.

Her ability to command sandworms is still useful, though and there was some hint there may still be a role for her in that direction.

Although they have 'normal' biological lifespans, their collective memories go all the way back to pre-civilization humanity (except in the case of Duncan, who only gets access to memories of his previous lives - which is still thousands of years of experience).

They are so common by this time, that anyone with secret knowledge takes a special drug named "shere" that is designed to foil mental probes. Shere doesn't work with post-God-Emperor Face Dancers: the only way to stop them memory-printing you is to destroy your own head before you are captured.

Chapterhouse: Dune / int_ca04edd6	comment	Charles Atlas Superpower: The Bene Gesserit train themselves to alter their blood composition, manipulate others by voice alone, being able to hold their breath for long periods of time, delay aging, neutralize any poison or drug, possibly see the future, and intense martial arts. They only get the future-vision and molecular control from the Spice. Everything else is pure Charles Atlas, with a few hints of selective breeding. The Honored Matres are revealed to be even more intense in their results in certain areas, but lack in others. The two groups eventually unify into one, combining the strengths of each. Mentats as well are "human computers". They are trained to possess photographic memories and deduce perfectly logical conclusions from the barest minimum of information. A Mentat Advisor is one of the most valuable assets that a noble house can have. Miles Teg is a mentat generalissimo. But just try using one as an iPod.

Superego: Tamalane, the model of the old school stoic Bene Gesserit, mellowed out in old age to the point of needing to be replaced and countering Bellonda's more visceral recommendations.
