[QUOTE="Mad Hatter, post: 2488715, member: 23731"] 97. Leto II the God Emperor [img]http://www.scifi.com/dune/gallery/images/leto_lrg_05.jpg[/img] Biography: The son of Paul Atreides, Leto II had genetic memory and the distinction of being the God Emperor. He took the leap that Muad'Dib couldn't and bonded with the sand trout that gave him invulnerability. Leto II ushered in humanity's Golden Path. He did it by conquering and cowing any and all who opposed him. Not really the makings of a hero, right? Many would even say he wasn't. However, he sat on the Lion throne for 3500 years and willingly gave it up. Through genetic manipulation and the guidance of the many ghola Duncans, Leto II created the bloodline that would forever make it impossible for anyone with prescience to cruelly rule humanity as he did, as Muad'Dib did (however briefly), and as the Bene Gesserit and Bene Tleilaxu would have. Through him, the Bene Gesserit were able to breed sandworms on other palents so that the whims of those who controlled spice could no longer hurt humanity. [/QUOTE]
