- "I am Count Hasimir Fenring. I serve the Emperor as observer and confidant. And I keep his Sardaukar from getting too far off the leash."
- ―Hasimir Fenring to the Prisoner[src]
Count Hasimir Fenring was an observer and confidant of the Padishah Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV and the husband of Lady Margot Fenring.
Biography[]
Background[]
Hasimir Fenring was assigned by the Padishah Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV as his observer and confidant on Arrakis to ensure the production of the Spice Melange and to keep the Sardaukar in line.[1]
Awakening[]
Fenring was present when the Prisoner was brought before Sub-Prefect Tors after being arrested by the Sardaukar, having been spotted with Zantara's cielago, Noctua. As he entered the cell where the Sardaukar were preparing to execute the Prisoner, Fenring assured Tors that he did not intend to slight him, but believed the interrogation would benefit from his visage. He removed his mask and a mark appeared in the Prisoner's cheek. They escaped the Sardaukar's grip, stole his blade and attempted to drive it into their own face, but could not. Tors knocked it from their hands and they repeatedly struck themself before falling to the floor. As Fenring drew nearer, they began strangling themself. Fenring recognised this as hypno-ligation, deducing that his face was the trigger. Determined to solve the mystery behind it, he ordered that they be taken from the cell.
Fenring later conversed with the Prisoner via a solido projector, knowing that the lack of his physical presence would not trigger another reaction. He explained that his job on Arrakis was to ensure the production of the spice. He questioned them about who subjected them to the hypno-ligation and about their connection to Zantara. He then ordered them to meet with a contact of his at Hannivar's bar in Harko Village, showing them a series of hand gestures they would need to use to let her know who they could be trusted.[1]
