Emperor Harkonnen Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 I think that red-like hair is cool, but I think that they should have black eyes too. That is so cool! But 10.000 years into the future, I thought that that was guild years or something, not Jesus years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 It isn`t natural, people with black eyes have blond or red hair. Usually blond ones have blue becouse of pigment. If Harkonnen had black eyes, it would ment they indeed dye hair. :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 Black eyes and red hair, are you shure ? Poeple with red hare don't have a lot of pigment in there body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander_Ordos Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 Actualy it's impossible to tell the real appearence of the Harkonnen cause it's fiction and no one wrote how they look exactly... Only Ordos have asian features cause they live on a ice world ;) ( But don't think that I have asian features lol ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 Why do you think that because we live on an Ice Planet we must have Asain Features? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 Enviroment have huge infuence on appereance. Like there where is a lot of sun people have dark skin and living there where is lack of sun have blue eyes and fair hair. People living on the North have asian like eyes, becouse its protecting eyes from sun`s blinks on snow and ice. But true, Ordos may have different appereance, its not Earth.

Emperor Harkonnen Posted May 5, 2002 Author Share Posted May 5, 2002 But why do people in the north of europe, don't have asian features then? Most of 'em are blond/red haired and blue eyed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 Becouse they haven`t much dark pigment in skin and eyes. People that are living in the farest North could went there from Tibet or somewhere different cold asian place. People living in place when snow is most of time, had protecting eyelids.

Sardauker-Kirov Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 I think the Ordos are bit of half asian and half western. Their cloth style looks alot like the "old" asian empires. Jewels, fancy clothing. Although they don't have the genetic appearance of a Asian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 And, although Roma was asian, it wasn`t Ordos, it was mentat took from somewhere else. Or she was mentat from Ordos community ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Harkonnen Posted May 5, 2002 Author Share Posted May 5, 2002 But that is only the game. Not the novels. And the game need actors, and not all ordos have that look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 Their soldier's looks a bit of mind controlled geeks from Yuri's revenge hehe. ;DThe Atreides and Harkonnen outfits look's more cooler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 Ordos are game house and don`t appear in book. I mean in real Dune book. And about Roma, mentats are take from mentat`s school, and she isn`t Ordos. Ordos could have asian look or nordic look becouse of character of their planet. But nobody knows.

gryphon Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 It's probbebly not impossible for a Ordos to be trained as a mentat. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 Uh...right...But in da same time she could be mantat from another planet. :)But right, right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander_Ordos Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Ordos do have asian features cause they live on an ice world, I mean have you ever walked the land where everything is pure white - I did and I hardly kept my eyes opened....One thing about the Harkonnen is sure - they are white people cause the " toxical shield " lol that covers the Giedi Prime never alows any solar beams to pass through ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Snow has nothing to do with Asian's. The Ordos clothes has Asian's appearance. Thats what i think then. And btw you forgot that the Harkonnen are living on a Hot world. Their skin's are like brown or tanned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 In hot world? I think it wasn`t hot by it own, only pollution keep sun (or something they have as sun) warm close to surface of planet and doesn`t allow go it to the highest parts of atmosphere.

exatreide Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Why do the freman apear arabic? Wouldnt they have more dark features? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Guerrilla Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Dark features what the do you mean by dark features? Do you make reference to their skin tone? Do you not think Frank Herbert borrowed from the arabic culture enough to also make the Fremen culture arabic influenced to a certain degree.

FeydRauttah Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Harkonnens look decidedly Russian to me in the books. Vladimir and Dmitri, for instance are Russian names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeydRauttah Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 From what I've read in Frank and Brian Herbert's books, the Atreides look like Greeks or Spaniards to me. They have a greek name. If you've read the Illiad you'll know that Agamemnon and Menelai, the famous Greek kings, were called the "Atreides brothers". Also, athe Atreides of Dune's universe have Spanish customs, like bullfighting... Anyway, they look like they have a Mediterranean origin.

Sardauker-Kirov Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 And the Atreides dare to call themselves diplomatic and peaceloving. They are hurting those poor bulls. ;DOne thing is still confusing me. I heard that Ordos "was" mentioned, some people claims it. But i'm not sure.
