Daniel is a entity that appears in Duncan Idaho's visions. The character appears as a homely elderly man alongside his companion Marty.

Analysis

It was stated before by Brian Herbert[1] that the characters Daniel and Marty created the Frank Herbert could be a metafor for how he and Beverly Herbert had been watching the events in the Dune Universe that had been unfolded.

By the statements made by Marty and Daniel at the end of Chapterhouse: Dune is clearly obvious that they were Independent Face Dancers[2].

Behind the Scenes

At the Hunters of Dune written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson have been shown, by their own interpretation, that Daniel is a disguise of Onmius.
