House Ginaz is a faction on Dune III MUSH, a consent-based online roleplaying game based on the universe described in the Dune chronicles, written by Frank Herbert. House Ginaz is mentioned in the 'Lexicon of the Imperium' as an appendix to the novel Dune in two entries:

Ginaz, House of: one-time allies of Duke Leto Atreides. They were defeated in the War of Assassins with Grumman.

Grumman: second planet of Niushe, noted chiefly for the feud of its ruling House (Moritani) with House Ginaz.

Dune III MUSH, it should be noted, began 100 years prior to the events in Dune, and is considered an alternate history. In other words, we are not bound to the timeline or events of the original book. In fact, rather than being destroyed at the hands of House Moritani, the War of Assassins has been resolved with only a minor defeat, and House Ginaz' fortunes have mostly recovered. Although the Ginaz-Moritani relationship is far from repaired, there have been moments when the two Houses have worked together on certain matters, and rumors of more permanent ties.

House Ginaz controls the Academy of Warfare, which produces the finest Swordmasters of the Imperium. They are the measuring stick against which all fighting folk are measured; even the Sardaukar. House Ginaz' military is not large but is very efficient, consisting of highly-trained and well-armed troops. House Ginaz' biggest strengths are in its political ties and reputation for Honor and Honesty above all else.

In these pages, you will find much information on House Ginaz as it is conceived of on Dune III MUSH. If you are interested in becoming a part of House Ginaz, you are encouraged to read through the Handbook, Available Roles, and Applying pages before you send in an application. You are also encouraged to log into the MUSH to talk to current players from Ginaz or other factions; the best way to learn the game is to simply immerse yourself in it and ask questions as you go.
