🎭 Selecting Your Starting Class

All selections on this page represent your starting class only. You are never locked into a single class. Each time you visit a trainer for another class, you are able to mix & match skill points from any of the classes that you've unlocked with those trainers

πŸͺ Choosing your Homeworld

  • These character traits do not lock you into a particular faction, but it tells NPCs how you think and speak
Trait Homeworld Player Impact (Active) NPC Impact (Passive) Possible Faction Impact
Deception Giedi Prime Enables lying, misleading, or concealing information; opens paths of manipulation or subterfuge NPCs may grow suspicious over time; easy to intimidate or mislead some, but others distrust Might make it easier to fit into Harkonnen-aligned factions or criminal/underground roles, due to cultural alignment
Honorable Caladan Unlocks truthful, principled, or loyal responses; allows peaceable conflict resolution NPCs are more trusting; may volunteer help or information more readily Might naturally align with Atreides values, gaining easier trust or moral authority in peacekeeping roles
Political Kaitain Opens diplomatic, status-aware, or bureaucratic dialogue; aids in negotiations or alliances NPCs in formal or noble roles may defer, seek favors, or respect your savvy Could offer advantages when navigating CHOAM, Landsraad, or noble diplomacy-focused groups
Cultured Chusuk Grants refined, artistic, or emotionally resonant dialogue; helps in persuasion via empathy NPCs appreciate eloquence or taste; improved rapport in social/artistic settings May find better resonance in roles tied to Mentats, performers, or persuasive diplomats
Technologist Ix Adds analytical, precise, or technical dialogue; solves issues through systems-based reasoning Technologists respect you; traditionalists or mystics may view you as cold or unnatural Likely synergizes with tech-heavy factions like the Ixians or smugglers dealing in forbidden tech
