Dune Awakening offers an in-depth character creator, giving all players a lot of customization tools to create someone unique. However, right after modeling the character, you'll talk to the Reverend Mother, who'll let you pick the character's Homeworld, Caste, and Mentor. This is great for fleshing out your character's background, giving them unique dialog traits and abilities depending on the selection. Here's what you should pick.
Dune Awakening: How To Get Water
Water is one of the most crucial resources in Dune Awakening that players need to survive the harsh climate of Arrakis, here's how to get & store it.
Which Homeworld Should You Pick in Dune Awakening?
Homeland is the first option players will get to choose while setting up their background in Dune Awakening. However, this option will have little to no impact on the gameplay, aside from a couple of extra dialog options that will pop up during conversations sometimes. Here are the details for all Homeworld options in the game.

Which Caste Should You Pick in Dune Awakening?
Similar to the Homeworld option, Caste also does not have a tangible impact when it comes to gameplay of Dune Awakening. It's only to help you pick which part of the social ladder your character belongs to, which will add some extra dialog options during conversations. Here are details for all the Castes available in the game.

Which Mentor Should You Pick in Dune Awakening?
Now that we've got background, non-gameplay traits out of the way, it's time to decide which mentor your character had. This option will have the most impact on abilities and other traits possessed by your character in terms of gameplay. Each class here comes with its own expansive skill tree, and choosing one will unlock its first ability. However, you'll be able to play as other classes as you unlock them by finding their respective trainers in Dune Awakening.
It's best to choose either Bene Gesserit Acolyte or Mentat as mentors at the start of the game. The trainers for these classes unlock way later in the game, unlike Trooper, which can be unlocked early.
Here's the information on all the Mentor options in the character creator.
