Tyekanik was a Sardaukar officer who served House Corrino after Emperor Shaddam IV was deposed by Muad'Dib (Paul Atreides).
Under Shaddam's daughter, Wensicia, Tyekanik was instrumental in the failed plot to kill the Atreides twins, Leto and Ghanima.
Tyekanik was ordered by Wensicia to adopt the warrior religion of the Fremen, as a means for the Corrinos to understand their cousins and adversaries, the Atreides. Tyekanik found the religion aptly suited to the soldier's ways.
After Leto Atreides II’s ascension to power, Tyekanik submitted to the order of the young emperor as Farad’n gave away his Sardaukar.
