Character: Duncan Idaho (books)

Updated: Jul 30, 2022

This refers to Duncan in the first book.

Universe: Dune (Frank Herbert)

Creature type: Human

Size: About 6 feet tall

Abilities: Above-modern-human speed and reflexes, sword skills, piloting skills, military tactical skills

Attack potency: Probably KJ-level with sword or knife (killed several enemies with swords/knives), at least 200J unarmed (based on athletic humans)

Strength: Probably at least 150 kg, perhaps over 200 (based on athletic humans)

Speed: Probably about 20 mph when running; combat speed is amazing but slightly weakened by his shield-training

Durability: At least high (kept fighting with a grievous head wound [p.285])

Intelligence: At least above average, perhaps genius-level (thinks of a clever trap for the Harkonnen forces [p.278], is described as being "a military genius" in the second book); IQ is therefore likely to be over 140

Feats: Killed 19 Sardauker (elite Imperial forces) before being killed himself

Stamina: Probably high (is very fit and athletic)

Weaknesses: Normal human weaknesses, shield-trained so he isn't as used to "standard" fighting
