As the story begins, Xavier is repelling an attack on the planet by Omnius' army of <a href="/wiki/Cymek" class="mw-redirect" title="Cymek">cymeks</a>. The cymeks are former humans whose brains have been implanted in preservation canisters, which in turn can be installed into a variety of fearsome mechanical bodies, to extend their lives indefinitely and make them nearly unstoppable. The original twenty cymeks (calling themselves the <a href="/wiki/Titan_(Dune)" class="mw-redirect" title="Titan (Dune)">Titans</a>) had conquered the complacent universe by exploiting humanity's reliance and dependency on machines, yet the Titans were later overthrown themselves by Omnius, an artificial intelligence of their design. Seeking to replace human chaos with machine order, Omnius thus ignited the war between machine and humanity. <a href="/wiki/Vorian_Atreides" class="mw-redirect" title="Vorian Atreides">Vorian Atreides</a> is the son and subordinate of the leading cymek Titan <a href="/wiki/Agamemnon_(Dune)" class="mw-redirect" title="Agamemnon (Dune)">Agamemnon</a> (whose last name, Atreides, originates with House Atreus, from the ancient Greek epic the <a href="/wiki/Iliad" title="Iliad">Iliad</a>). </p><p>Meanwhile, the <a href="/wiki/Sorceresses_of_Rossak" class="mw-redirect" title="Sorceresses of Rossak">Sorceresses of Rossak</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Matriarchy" title="Matriarchy">matriarchal</a> order, are perfecting their destructive psychic powers for use against the machines, and maintaining a breeding program to create more powerful telepaths.

His methods of study often entail human vivisection and torture in his slave pens. Erasmus takes a liking to Serena, as does the young Vorian Atreides. Serena realizes she is pregnant with Xavier's child, and later gives birth to a baby boy whom she names Manion (after her father). Erasmus finds this distraction inconvenient, and not only removes Serena's <a href="/wiki/Uterus" title="Uterus">uterus</a> but kills her young son in front of her. </p><p>This single event incites the entire Jihad, and young Manion is soon labelled the first martyr, Manion the Innocent.

Iblis (now Grand Patriarch of the Holy Jihad) and Serena (Priestess of the Jihad) are the religious leaders of the human rebellion, and Xavier and Vorian its two generals. The brutal Titans are desperate to break free of their machine masters and wage their own techno-misanthropic war, and Omnius and Erasmus are determined to conquer and destroy all of humanity once and for all. </p><p>A subplot of the novel focuses on the Zensunni slave Ishmael who is captured by slavers and taken to Poitrin. He and a Zenshiite slave named Aliid attempt to sabotage one of Holtzmann's experiments. The two are influenced by the charismatic slave leader Bel Moulay, who inspires a slave uprising. Lord Niko Bludd's Dragoons suppress the revolt. While the slaves receive an amnesty due to the pressing war with Omnius, Moulay is mutilated and executed. </p><p>And on a lonely desert planet known as <a href="/wiki/Arrakis" title="Arrakis">Arrakis</a>, the seeds of legend are sown with Selim Wormrider, an outcast from his tribe, who sees the future of <a href="/wiki/Sandworm_(Dune)" title="Sandworm (Dune)">Shai-Hulud</a> and makes it his mission to save his god from those who would wish to take the spice. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Characters">Characters</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Dune:_The_Butlerian_Jihad&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Characters"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><b>Serena Butler</b> (221-164 B.G.), an ambitious and intelligent woman from <a href="/wiki/Salusa_Secundus" class="mw-redirect" title="Salusa Secundus">Salusa Secundus</a> and a strong voice for the human rebellion.
