Heighliner

Item from Dune by Frank Herbert

An enormous Spacing Guild transport ship — kilometers long, capable of folding space for instantaneous interstellar travel, and completely dependent on spice-saturated Navigators to function.

Also known as: Guild heighliner, Guild ship, foldspace vessel

What They Know

• Kilometers in length — carries entire fleets within its hold
• Requires a spice-mutated Navigator to fold space safely
• The Spacing Guild's monopoly on heighliners gives them political leverage over the entire Imperium
• Attacking a heighliner is the ultimate taboo — worse than using atomics against people
