Dagobert IX
Nominal, and senile, Emperor at the time of the Mule, visited briefly on
Neotrantor by Bayta and Toran Darell, Ebling Mis, and the Mule on their way to
the University of Trantor Library. (11-II-22)
Dagobert X
Crown prince of the Empire at the time of the Mule, killed by the Mule with the
help of a Visi-sonor after he had apprehended the Darells and Ebling Mis on
Neotrantor. (11-II-22)
Dahl
One of the poorest sectors of Trantor, where the magma of the interior was near
enough to the surface of the planet to make the sector a valuable source of heat
for conversion to electricity. Visited by Hari Seldon during his attempt to
escape the attentions of the Imperium. (8-13,14,15,16,17)
Daluben IV
Emperor at the time of Hari Seldon, presumably appointed to replace Agis XIV
after his deposing by the Commission of Public Safety. (11-I-1)
Dam, Olynthus
Schoolfriend of Arkady Darell, and designer and builder of the sound receiver
which Arkady used to eavesdrop on her father and his friends during their
discussion of the need to continue the search for the Second Foundation.
(12-II-7)
Daneel
See Olivaw, Daneel.
Darell, Arkady (Arcadia)
Granddaughter of Bayta and Toran Darell. Born on Trantor, where in infancy she
was conditioned by the Second Foundation as part of their plan to avoid
destruction by the First Foundation. She joined Homir Munn on his visit to
Kalgan to investigate the Mule's search for the Second Foundation, where she
attracted the unwanted attention of Lord Stettin, and realised that Stettin's
mistress Callia was a Second Foundationer. She fled to Trantor in the company of
Preem Palver, not knowing that he was the Second Foundation's First Speaker, and
unwittingly misled her father Toran into believing that the Second Foundation
was in fact located on Terminus. In later life she became a novelist, writing a
romanticized but nevertheless popular biography of her grandmother Bayta Darell.
(12-II; 13-2-5)
Darell, Bayta
Descendent of Hober Mallow and a member of the underground democratic opposition
movement which grew on Terminus during the mayoralties of the Indburs. The
Seldon Crisis which she perceived as imminent due to the increasing political
tensions on Terminus was overtaken by the advance of the Mule, who she, together
with her husband Toran, inadvertently escorted from Kalgan to Terminus and
thence, with Ebling Mis, in a search for the Second Foundation. As the only one
of the Mule's unwitting companions who had not been emotionally conditioned by
him, she was able to deduce his true identity and, by killing Ebling Mis,
prevented the Mule from finding the Second Foundation before they found him.
(11-II)
Darell, Franssart
Independent trader ("renegade" according to the Foundation) of Haven at the time
of the Mule's conquest, when the Foundation was under the control of wealthy
corporate traders. (11-II)
Darell, Toran
Citizen of Haven, son of Franssart Darell and husband of Bayta. Toran
accompanied Bayta on a search for the Mule on Kalgan, and later, with Ebling Mis
and, unknowingly, the Mule, on an abortive search for the Second Foundation.
(11-II)
Darell, Toran
Son of Toran and Bayta Darell, and the Foundation's leading electroneurologist.
One of the more well-travelled of the Foundation's scientists, having lived for
a while on Trantor, and worked with Kleise at the University of Santanni, he had
come to suspect not only that there was a Second Foundation manipulating key
figures in the Foundation, but that it had been responsible for the death of
Kleise. While appearing to co-operate with Pelleas Anthor's search for the
Second Foundation he had realised that Anthor was himself a Second Foundationer,
and was, while the Foundation's Administrator of Research and Development during
the Kalganian War, secretly working with Elvett Semic on developing the Mental
Static Device which was used as a defence against the Second Foundation. (12-II)
Daribow
One of the Four Kingdoms. (10-II-2)
Dark Nebula
Foundation ship attacked by Korellian forces. (10-V-17)
Davan
Underground political leader of the deprived Billibotton area of Dahl, met by
Hari Seldon and Dors Venabili. His request that they provide the leadership his
people lacked was politely declined. (8-15-74,16-80)
Deamone, Alstare
Squire of the Upper City of Florina, killed by Myrlyn Terens during Terens'
attempt to avoid capture by the Florinian Patrollers. (5-10)
Debrett
One of Vasilia Aliena's robots on Aurora. (3-9-38)
Decennial Convention
Mathematical conference on Trantor at which Hari Seldon gave the first paper on
the theoretical possibilities of psychohistory. (8-I-1,5)
Delarmi, Delora
Second Foundation Speaker of the time of Quindor Shandess. As ambitious as Stor
Gendibal, and, if anything, more ruthless and arrogant, calling for Gendibal's
impeachment for behaving in a manner unbecoming a Speaker. When Gendibal's trial
collapsed following his proof of the existence of the so-called Anti-Mules, she
persuaded the Table to send him in pursuit of Golan Trevize and to find the
Anti-Mules. (13-7-24,8-26,10)
Delicass
See Neotrantor. (11-II-22)
Delmarre, Gladia
Field colourist of Solaria, and wife of Rikaine Delmarre. After being implicated
in the murder of Rikaine, she moved to Aurora, where she dropped the name
Delmarre, became well known as a designer of robot exteriors, and, unwittingly,
involved in the plot by the Auroran Globalists to gain information on humaniform
robots from Jander Panell.
After the Panell affair and the return to Earth of Elijah Baley, she enjoyed a
marriage to Santirix Gremionis which was longer than was customary on Aurora,
and on the death of Han Fastolfe inherited not only the establishment which he
had loaned to her, but the two robots Daneel Olivaw and Giskard Reventlov.
When, many years later, she was asked by D.G.Baley to help his salvage mission
from Baleyworld deal with the apparently abandoned robots of Solaria, she
returned briefly to Solaria and thence to Baleyworld and Earth, accompanying
Baley and discovering a role as an advocate of peace for both Settlers and
Spacers. (2-4 etc.; 3-6,8-33,16,17,19-82; 4; 14-IV-11-48)
Delmarre, Rikaine
Foetal engineer of Solaria, working on techniques for artificial insemination
and ectogenesis, killed by Jothan Leebig when he began to suspect that Leebig's
experiments with robotics were aimed at developing warships controlled entirely
by positronic brains. (2-3)
Demachek, Lavinia
Under-Secretary of the Terrestrial Department of Justice. (3-1-4)
Demen
Watch-Sergeant on Hober Mallow's Far Star. (10-V-4)
Demerzel, Eto
Identity adopted by Daneel Olivaw in his role as Chief of Staff, and later First
Minister, to Cleon I. (8-1,13-60; 9-I,V)
Deniador, Vasil
Comporellian historian specializing in ancient history, who was able to supply
Janov Pelorat with details of Comporellon's mythology and the supposed
co-ordinates of three of the so-called "Forbidden Worlds." (14-II-6-25,7-26)
Derowd
World with endearing sexual customs, which were perhaps inevitably abandoned for
reasons of economic expediency. (8-10-46)
Desperance
Modified tranquilizer used as an agent of mind control by inducing acute
despair. It was used by Gleb Andorin in an attempt to make Raych Seldon kill his
father. (9-II-22)
Devers, Lathan
Independent trader of the Foundation who on the instructions of Sennett Forell
allowed himself to be captured by Bel Riose's expeditionary force and detained
for six months before escaping with Onum Barr. Already at odds with the wealthy
owners of the large trading companies who governed the Foundation, Devers died
in the slave mines twenty years later. (11-I)
Diamonds
Conspicuous group of stars visible in Terminus' sky. (13-4-16)
Directory
Five-person executive board of Baleyworld. (4-III-9-35)
Dirige, Orum
Lieutenant of Kalganian spaceport police at the time of Arkady Darell's flight
to Trantor with the Palvers. Ostensibly a double-agent working for the First
Foundation, he had also been conditioned by the Second Foundation. (12-II-15,16)
Dixyl
Captain of the Foundation's Third Fleet's flagship at the Battle of Quoriston.
(12-II-19)
Dom
Gaian with, according to Bliss, a larger share of Gaia's consciousness than
anyone else on the planet, and the instigator of the plan to draw the First and
Second Foundations, as represented by Harla Branno and Stor Gendibal, to Gaia,
where their various plans for the future of the galaxy, and the future of Gaia,
could be decided by Golan Trevize. He was ninety-three years old when his plan
came to fruition. (13-17-73,74,20-92; 14-I-1-1)
Dornick, Gaal
Young mathematician of Synnax whose journey to Trantor to join the Seldon
Project coincided with the Imperial Government's action against Seldon and his
followers. He stayed with Seldon until shortly before Seldon's death, then
joined the Foundation on Terminus, where he later a became a biographer of
Seldon and chronicler of his times. (9-V; 10-I)
Dorwin, Lord
Chancellor of the Empire, and armchair archaeologist with an interest in the
Origin Question, sent as an envoy to the Periphery when it became plain that the
Empire was no longer strong enough to maintain control of the region. Dorwin's
treaties, negotiated on behalf of the Empire with Anacreon and the Foundation,
were shown by Salvor Hardin to be essentially empty rhetoric. (10-II-4,5)
Doty
Squire of the Upper City of Florina. (5-13)
Drawt
Senior Lieutenant on Hober Mallow's Far Star. (10-V-9)
Dubanqua, Manella
Woman of Trantor, and officer in the Imperial Security Forces, acting the role
of a prostitute in Wye when she was met by Raych Seldon during his investigation
of the death of Kaspal Kaspalov. She followed him to the grounds of the Imperial
Palace, by which time he had been drugged by Gleb Andorin into making an
assassination attempt on his father Hari, then First Minister to Cleon I. She
forestalled this by killing Andorin, but in the resulting confusion Cleon was
killed by Mandell Gruber, and shortly afterwards she resigned her commission and
married Raych. After a number of years on Trantor she accompanied Raych to
Santanni, but was presumed dead when the ship carrying her and her daughter
Bellis to Anacreon disappeared without trace. (9-II-11,14,25,III-2,3,4,IV-6,16)
