Biography[]
1984 film[]
Originally a human who entered the Spacing Guild school, Edric loaded up on the spice melange to the point where his body mutated, with a huge head and elongated extremities. He spent all of his time in a tank that was filled with liquid spice.
In the year 10,191 A.G. (23,352 A.D.), Edric was sent to the planet Kaitian to speak to Emperor Shaddam IV about the guild's concerns about a potential threat to spice production. In that meeting, Shaddam revealed his work with Baron Vladimir Harkonnen in a plot to eliminate the popular and decent Atreides House. Edric stated that they saw only one complication and that in order for the plot to succeed, Shaddam and his conspirators needed to ensure that Paul Atreides was killed.
Edric then left, warning the Emperor to deny that he had even been on Kaitain.
Dune Messiah[]
In dune messiah Edric has a much larger role, he is one of the conspirators planning to kill Paul Atreides who had now become the emperor, along with Helen Mohiam of the Bene Gesserit, Scytale of the Bene Tleilaxu, Korba of the fremen and Irulan Corrino. He used his abilities as a guild navigator to circumvent Paul Atreides' prescience, making their scheme undetected. Eventually the scheme was thwarted, and along with his other conspirators, except Irulan, Edric was killed by Stilgar after Paul Atreides disappeared into the desert.[1]
