Line 226:
* [[Sexless Marriage]]
* [[Stockholm Syndrome]]: Shows a remarkable amount of devotion to Paul considering how he treated her. Not abuse exactly, but "not one whiff of tenderness" is a bit hard after effectively kidnapping her.
** [[Fridge Horror]]: One of Irulan's biographical chapter openings mentions having to dodge multiple assassination attempts in childhood, assassination attempts that ''her own father'' may likely have been behind. As well as being raised in a royal cloister by concubines and virtually never seeing her father. Paul may never have shown Irulan any personal tenderness or warmth but by actually making her a responsible part of his household and family (remember that Irulan, not Chani, is effectively Paul's chamberlain), actually talking to her every day, and oh, ''not trying to have her murdered'', Paul actually '''is''' treating Irulan with more kindness than she's ever known before in her life.
* [[The Woobie]]
=== The Sardaukar, the Army of [[The Emperor]] ===
