Zoe di Vigne (born Year 1, 127) is the current Magistrate of Farpoint Station, board member of Cantrell Conglomerate and a devotee of the Red Lotus religious sect.
Early Life and Career
Not much is known about the early life of Zoe di Vigne, She was born on Coruscant around year 1 to human parents who's names and fates are unknown; Fleeing the planet as a stow away in year 20. Zoe is prone to making up false stories about this time of her life in interviews so little of the truth is known before her arrival on Ord Cantrell. Zoe left Coruscant as a stow away on a trade freighter heading to Ord Cantrell arriving on the planet on Year 20, Day 310, After landing on Ord Cantrell Zoe's first act was to beat a man in the street and steal his datapad, using that as a way to guide herself, she went looking for work eventually coming upon the name of and approaching Avelyn ca Vella the Guildmistress of Cantrell Consulting and was granted her an interview, during the interview Zoe displayed her affinity for mechanics by repairing an R4 droid in her office and was hired on the spot to maintain and repair equipment for Fath Industries an affiliate of Cantrell Conglomerate, which she did successfully for a short time as well as a range of unaffiliated casual jobs including a successful run as a model and even opening up a small shop to build and sell custom droids which she would occasionally return to over the years. Only 32 days after joining Fath Industries there was a company shake-up, Fath Industries CEO Mercedes Morgan was required to move into a larger role within the conglomerate and without a clear successor it was decided that Zoe would temporarily take on the duties of running the company until further notice, which she did until the company was folded on Year 21 Day 92.
Conglomerate Career
After Fath Industries was closed Zoe was moved into the position of chief operating officer for Cantrell Conglomerate as a whole and was responsible for overseeing many of the Company's projects both inside the Fath system and outside of it, most notably the expansion of Ord Cantrell's production capacity and large scale mining and building projects in Iotran. Zoe established her place inside the Conglomerates leadership team with hard work and was respected enough to be chosen as a representative and voice for the guild in the short lived Free Trade Worlds economic alliance, which ultimately failed. Zoe remained in this position until the untimely death of Mercedes Morgan who was at the time not only President of Cantrell Conglomerate but also the wife of both Zoe herself and Avelyn ca Vella, leaving a large void in the guilds power structure. Zoe inherited ownership of a revived Fath Industries which was being was a project Mercedes had been working on at the time, Zoe was also appointed to her deceased wife's position as President of the Conglomerate and effectively second in command to the Guildmistress, a position Zoe has stated she was never very comfortable with. Zoe's time as President has been described as tremulous and Zoe herself has been criticized for her aggressive management style and was known to be somewhat difficult to work with at this time in both of a professional and personal manner divorcing from Avelyn during this time. Although her efforts along with the hard work of the rest of the Conglomerate kept the guild stable during the large shake up. This continued until Zoe met Harmonia de Chatillon, cousin of Ord Cantrell Governor Artemis de Chatillon and a known force sensitive who introduced her to Kiffar Spiritualism and specifically the the Red Lotus sect. Zoe, as a convert to the sect and wanting a less stressful position stepped down as President helping to select her replacement Danae de Chatillon and became "Hand of the Dominess" acting as an adviser to Harmonia, helping Harmonia establish Red Lotus as a true affiliate of Cantrell Conglomerate, Which is a position she still holds today. Zoe also remains as a board member for the guild although she did sell her stake in Fath Industries to Avelyn ca Vella.
Politics
Zoe is the current Magistrate of Farpoint Station, an external administered dependency operating under the office of the Governor of Ord Cantrell located within the sector of Fath, Farpoint as it is colloquially known has a population of 1,835,162 sentients. Zoe was appointed on year 24 Day 177 by the still current Governor, Artemis de Chatillon to little fanfare. Zoe's time as magistrate has been described by her supporters as 'secure' with crime rates hitting record lows while also managing to grow the colonies economic outputs particularly in tourism with the colony boasting more than 1,277,000 visitors in the year 24-25 galactic financial year, however critics have described her policy's as 'oppressive' particularly her 'Citizen confirmation and identity' policy which provides all permanent residence with identification chips as well as catalogs all travel in and out of the colony, also the '1001 eyes' initiative which distributed Magistrate controlled patrol droids to every corner of Farpoint, however as of Year 25 Day 240 it should be noted that the 1001 eyes initiative has been reversed.
One area where Zoe has been effective is in securing grants from Ord Cantrell, funding a number of large building projects just as the construction of the Astral Point Creature Pits, Chatillon Condotteri Training Academy and in accordance with her faith a Red Lotus Ossuary as well as much needed repairs and upgrades to the Farpoint Starliners Starport and preservation of Farpoints natural, extensive cave networks.
Since taking office Zoe has rarely been seen by the public choosing to attend the majority of her public engagements as well as Cantrell Conglomerate board meetings via one of her many droid attendants, it is unknown why this is the case and there has been no comment made on the subject by the Magistrate's office.
Rumors
Zoe di Vigne has been the subject of several rumors and conspiracy theories both before and during her time as Magistrate of Farpoint Station.
Missing Sentients - Zoe has been tentatively linked with the strange disappearance of over 80 sentients, the majority of which disappeared from several cities that Zoe is known to have been in or around at the same time on Ord Cantrell between late year 23 and mid year 24 however no convincing motive has ever been put forward as to why Zoe would want to kidnap or kill these seemingly random sentients and there are several cases linked with these disappearances that happened while Zoe was known to be off world entirely, Zoe has whenever questioned on such rumors maintained that she is in no way involved and has pointed the blame at 'overzealous holonet sleuths' for perpetuating the lie.
Death - It has been suggested that Zoe is no longer in charge of Farpoint Station and in fact died not long after taking office and that her death is being covered up to allow for some kind of shadowy cabal or potentially a rogue droid intelligence to maintain control. These rumors came about due to the increasing lack of public sightings of the Magistrate. Zoe has not been seen in public since Year 24 day 300.
Name - Zoe has long been dogged with rumors that her name is not really her name. the name Zoe di Vigne doesn't appear on any official documentation until her formal employment contract at Fath Industries in late year 20, Zoe was a refugee from Coruscant however and famously emigrated to Ord Cantrell illegally explaining a lack of paper-trail. proponents of this rumor instead point out that there is no known record of any di Vigne on either Coruscant or Ord Cantrell prior to year 20.
