Gaius Helen Mohiam is a Bene Gesserit Reverend Mother and one of the leaders of the Guild conspiracy. Having once approved Paul Atreides as the kwisatz haderach, Gaius Helen Mohiam disapproves of the Fremen Jihad unleashed in Paul’s name. She strives to prevent Paul from fathering an heir with Chani and seeks to force him to impregnate Princess Irulan instead, thereby putting a Bene Gesserit on the throne. In Dune Messiah, Gaius Helen Mohiam is executed along with the other Guild conspirators.
