Original Dune
This article or section refers to elements from Original Dune.


Powindah was a term commonly used by the Bene Tleilax to describe any individual not born into the Tleilaxu culture, or anyone who did not believe in their very specific and esoteric religious beliefs. The term meant non-believer, although it was used in a much more derogatory sense than its literal translation with terms such as infidel, apostate and heathen having similar connotations. The word was rarely spoken around non-Tleilaxu.
