Earl Dominic Vernius is one of the main characters of the Prelude of Dune-trilogy, which takes place 40-16 years before the events of Dune. He is the head of House Vernius, and a good friend of Duke Paulus Atreides, with whom he fought in the Ecaz-rebellion. He is married to the lady Shando Vernius and together they have the children Rhombur Vernius and Kailea Vernius.

Dominic is the ruler of Ix at the beginning of Dune: House Atreides. He is the host to the young Atreides prince and na-duke Leto Atreides I who is sent to Ix for some time by his father to study politics with the Earl's son, Rhombur.
