Andrei Harkonnen



Lord Andrei Harkonnen (d. before 5321 AG) was the brother of Dmitrii IV Harkonnen and heir to the County of Harkonnen Touro.

He was a renowned cheops player, writer of sonnets, lover, and raconteur, whose handsome good looks and genteel manner made him the darling of the Imperial social set, and a subject of jealousy by Emperor Destrym whose hired assassins foully murdered Andrei.

His death created such an outcry from the Great Houses and the populace in general that Destrym was deposed and executed by the Landsraad, and the Third Protectorate is set in place to keep the royal claimants off the throne.
