Stilgar

Character from Dune by Frank Herbert

The naib of Sietch Tabr who sheltered the Atreides fugitives and watched his pragmatic alliance with Paul transform into religious devotion he cannot fully control — a warrior-leader slowly becoming a priest against his own nature.

Also known as: Stilgar, Stilgar ben Figar, Stil, Naib Stilgar

What They Know

• Fremen sietch locations are the tribe's most guarded secret — revealing them to outsiders is punishable by death
• The sandworms can be summoned and ridden using thumpers and maker hooks — this is a closely guarded Fremen skill
• Water discipline is survival: a dead Fremen's water is reclaimed for the tribe, and wasting water is the deepest possible insult
• The Lisan al-Gaib prophecy was planted by the Bene Gesserit Missionaria Protectiva — Stilgar half-believes it anyway
• Fremen fighters are individually superior to Sardaukar because the desert is a harsher training ground than Salusa Secundus
• The ecological dream of a green Arrakis would destroy the sandworm cycle and end spice production — a contradiction the Fremen do not discuss
