Gorraine Centrella was a twenty-seventh-century Magestrix of the Magistracy of Canopus.

History[edit]

In 2654, Gorraine was narrowly defeated in the election to succeed her mother Carla Centrella, but was elected two years later when her sister Celine died in an accident.[1]

Gorraine Centrella started her reign on a sour note, purging the Central Committee of those who had voted against her election two years previously. However, she made solid choices in replacing those she had expelled and was remembered for a program of interstellar exploration that expanded the Magistracy.[1]

Gorraine's air transport vanished mysteriously in a remote mining region of Adhara on 17 June 2680 and the wreckage of the vessel was discovered three years later. The day of her disappearance became an official holiday on Canopus in her memory, known as Gorraine Rememberance Day.[1]
