This article refers to elements from Original Dune Pages for this subject as it appears in other canons: |
The Ones of Many Faces[1], also called the Enemies of Many Faces[2], were malevolent forces which created the incredibly powerful Weapon, as well as the Futars. They directed a war against the Honored Matres, causing them to flee back into the Old Imperium.[3][4] Since the War of the Sisterhoods caused violent upheaval and chaos to those who lived in the Old Empire, it was not known by them, or remembered by the Matres, who or what it was the Matres were fleeing from. During his time imprisoned on Chapterhouse, Duncan Idaho saw two beings who named themselves Daniel and Marty, who he knew had found a new way to apply Holtzman's ancient theories. He strongly suspected these to be the Ones of Many Faces.

I do not know what else she salvaged or what the Ixians may have provided her. And the Ones of Many Faces, curse them through eternity, had caused the disaster. Them and their Futars! The ease with which all but that handful of The Weapon had been confiscated! Awesome powers. We must arm ourselves well before we return to that battle. Dama is right.

A dark scowl was not Dama's only visible response. Orange vanished, leaving her eyes an oddly bland discrepancy on the glowering face. Odrade nodded as though Dama had answered. "We could leave you vulnerable to those who assail you, those who drove you into this cul de sac." "You think we ..." "We know." At least, now I know.
