The HBO series Dune: Prophecy, set 10,000 years before Paul Atreides' birth, explores the origins of iconic families, including the Harkonnens and Atreides.
Valya Harkonnen, the series' central character, joins a cult of witches, eventually becoming Mother Superior of the Sisterhood, leading to the creation of the Bene Gesserit.
The show interestingly attempts to evoke some sympathy for the Harkonnens, portraying them as unjustly condemned and banished to a cold, inhospitable world.
Valya's dark character traits are immediately evident, demonstrated by her use of the Voice to compel a fellow Sister to take a fatal action.
