Darnerian McCants: Wide Receiver for the Baltimore Ravens or Chief Assassin for the House of Atreides?
Xavier Harkonnen: Defensive End for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or Military Leader during the Butlerian Jihad?
Atari Bigby: Cornerback for the Green Bay Packers or Housekeeper for the Royal Family of Arrakis?
Hasimir Fenrin: Kicker for the Miami Dolphins or 81st Padishah Emperor of the Known Universe?
