Frank Herbert's Dune...

[Brandon]

So, in a thread in the Exposure Suits forum, someone reminded me of the still suits the Fremen in the Dune books/movies use.

What if you replaced the characters in the Dune saga with Divers / Dive related things?

Would Cave Divers be like the Fremen? Do stillsuits have some funky resemblance to DUI Drysuits? How about the Sand Worms? They kind of look like Gavins to me...

I'm thinking that Shaddam IV reminds me of my LDS owner...

LDS. The Air Planet. The only source of the gas air, which permits travel through liquid space. Whoever controls the air, controls the universe.

The Spacing Guild kind of reminds me of PADI...

Anyway, just a starter... see if you can add anything...

Well, I can think of one particular tech agency head who could fill in for the Baron Harkonnen...

Hmmm....kind of a cross between Shaddam and Gurney Halleck (or whomever Patrick Stewart played).

Some things fit. The preciousness of water for one. What would be the spice? Nitrox?
