Homeworld: Little is known of the icy, remote planet of the Ordos. The economy of the planet is based entirely on trade - and smuggling, to be certain. Our spies can tell us that much - if nothing else.
Leader: Unknown. A reclusive cartel of wealthy noblemen, seem to control the finances of House Ordos - and thus, House Ordos itself. No one has ever seen them - except the few generals who formerly controlled what troops the Ordos could muster. One by one, those generals have been eliminated under mysterious circumstances.
Mentat master of assassins: None. The previous Mentat, known only as Ammon, was executed on the alleged charge of embezzlement. Spies have reported on the possibility of an Ixian clone, a computer in the form of a human male, smuggled from the Ixians in exchange for a fortune in Spice. However, since the Butlerian Jihad, there has never been a computer in the likeness of a human mind, so these reports have been largely disregarded.
Military strengths: Immense wealth - the kind of wealth that buys incredibly powerful forbidden technologies; illegal weapons purchased from the house of Ix and then smuggled to the Ordos troops; aside from wealth, there is little military strength to House Ordos. Their troops are largely mercenary, and tend to desert with great frequency.
House profile: House Ordos cannot be profiled. We do know they have a tendency towards sabotage, expensive weaponry, and illegal technologies.

We believe the Ordos may have Ixian weapons the Harkonnen and Atreides could only dream of. But this could all be speculation. We know for certain nothing else.
Insignia: The Snake.
