Fedaykin
From Dune
This article or section refers to elements from Original Dune.
Fedaykin[1] was the term used to describe the Fremen death commandos, or the cream of the Fremen fighters.
Muad'Dib's elite personal guards were initially made up of a group of Fedaykin. By the time of Leto and Ghanima Atreides birth, the term Fedaykin had become synonymous with the elite of Muad'dib's Jihad army.
However, after Paul was blinded and vanished into the Arrakis desert the Fedaykin's fortunes faltered. In 10,210 A.G. Alia Atreides dissolved the Fedaykin, and the term reverted to its original Fremen meaning.
