Piter de Vries

Character from Dune by Frank Herbert

A twisted Mentat in Harkonnen service whose brilliant analytical mind is corroded by sadism and sapho addiction — he craves Jessica as a prize and serves the Baron with a sycophant's eagerness and an assassin's patience.

Also known as: Piter de Vries, Piter, Mentat de Vries

What They Know

• He is a Tleilaxu-twisted Mentat — his mentat conditioning was deliberately warped to serve Harkonnen needs, making him brilliant but morally inverted
• He designed much of the plan to destroy House Atreides, including the strategy to break Dr. Yueh's Suk conditioning through his wife
• He craves Lady Jessica as his personal prize — the Baron has promised her to him as payment for loyal service
• Sapho juice addiction is far more advanced in him than in most mentats — he consumes it compulsively and his lips are deeply stained
• He was killed by the poison tooth meant for the Baron — Duke Leto's last weapon claimed the wrong Harkonnen
