This article or section refers to elements from Original Dune There are separate pages for this subject as it appears in the other canons, the reasons for this are explained here |
Count Hasimir Fenring (10133 AG - 10225 AG) was a renowned assassin and Mentat political tactician, and the adviser to Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV. He was also a prominent member of House Fenring, a House Minor that had long been aligned to House Corrino. Fenring was a genetic eunuch and an almost Kwisatz Haderach. He was married to the Bene Gesserit Lady Margot Fenring.
He was a small man with oversize dark eyes and a weasel face.
History
Fenring was a part of the Bene Gesserit breeding program and was one of the Kwisatz Haderach candidates, but crippled by his being a eunuch. His talent concentrated into furtiveness and inner seclusion and became invisible to prescient vision.
He was also a relative to Dalak Fenring who married Wensicia Corrino
After the ascent of Shaddam to the role of Padishah Emperor, Hasimir became his vital adviser, often guiding him away from foolish political decisions.
During the transition of power on Arrakis between House Harkonnen and House Atreides, Fenring served as interim Governor, no doubt finalizing some of the elements that would later be instrumental in the fall of House Atreides.
Between 10191 AG and 10193 AG he served as Siridar-Absentia of Caladan. Fenring tried to free Shaddam from the Landsraad's suspicions after the Arrakis Affair. It cost more than a billion solaris in spice bribes, slave women, royal honors, and tokens of rank.
In 10193 AG Fenring refused Shaddam's order to kill Paul Atreides and followed him in exile on Salusa Secundus where he spent the last 32 years of his life.
Behind the Scenes
Hasimir Fenring was played by Miroslav Táborský in the Dune miniseries.
