In the mirror universe, Kira Nerys is a female Bajoran who was the intendant of Bajor in the late 24th century. In 2370, she was the commanding officer of the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance outpost Terok Nor, which was in orbit of Bajor. Her first officer, Gul Elim Garak, plotted to kill her, in the hope of succeeding her as Intendant, on numerous occasions but these plans came to nothing. In 2370, Kira freed a Terran slave named Typhuss James Halliwell and soon after that Kira made Typhuss her consort. Kira was also known to have had romances with the mirror Benjamin Sisko, Bareil Antos and Ezri Tigan and Typhuss James Halliwell and the alternate mirror Kathryn Janeway.
By late 2378 she was stationed on Tantok Nor and Gul Broca was her second-in-command. Kira didn't know that Typhuss took six secret lovers behind her back, the lovers included B'Elanna, Xena, Annika, Olivia, Samantha and Helen.
In an alternate mirror universe, Kira was part of a Maquis cell operating in the Bajor sector. In a parallel mirror universe, Intendant Kira Nerys was able to seduce Typhuss James Halliwell in 2378 and take him to the mirror universe. After Intendant Kira seduced Typhuss, Intendant Kira and Typhuss became lovers. Kira and Typhuss lived on the Alliance controlled station Terok Nor.
Biography[]
Early life[]
Kira was born in November 2343 in the Dahkur Province of Bajor to Kira Taban and Kira Meru.
Characteristics[]
Kira often displayed hedonistic and bisexual tendencies, surrounding herself in her quarters with human slaves both male and female. She also displayed sadistic behavior as she had no obvious moral difficulties about having people tortured or killed. Kira was also known to have had romances with the mirror Benjamin Sisko, Bareil Antos and Ezri Tigan and Typhuss James Halliwell and the alternate mirror Kathryn Janeway.
Kira was formerly the Intendant of the Alliance space station Terok Nor, with her second in command Elim Garak. Kira ruled over the station with an iron fist, but used varying methods to do her job. She was manipulative when necessary, but ruthless and violent on other occasions, often rounding up Terran slaves and executing them randomly. She did, however, often view certain people with a certain affection, allowing them privileges in return for their loyalty and dedication.
In 2374, Intendant Kira takes Bareil Antos as her consort. Typhuss tries to kill Bareil Antos and is stopped by Kira. Later Bariel joins the Terran Rebellion. In 2375, Intendant Kira again takes Typhuss as her consort. By 2375 she had also, apparently, engaged in a lesbian relationship with Ezri Tigan.
The Intendant is sensual, kinky and ruthless. She will use sex to pass the time or to manipulate others. However, she also wants people to love her. Like Dukat, she sees no reason why a cruel despot should not enjoy the devotion of those around her. This is one reason why she is so delighted to meet Kira: After all, if you can't love me, who can? Trained in hand to hand combat, seductress, can handle a phaser and a born leader.
Chief of security[]
Prior to becoming Intendant of Bajor, she served as chief of security for her predecessor, Skrain Dukat on Terok Nor. While in this post, she helped Dukat conceal his affair with her mother, Kira Meru. (ST novel: Dark Passions, Book One)
This led to Dukat developing an unhealthy obsession with Intendant Kira in later years. (DS9 - Mirror Universe novel: Saturn's Children)
2369[]
By 2369, Kira had become the Intendant of Bajor. (ST novel: Dark Passions, Book One)
Her many enemies ranged from her first officer, Elim Garak, to members of the Bajoran Chamber of Ministers who supposedly "advised" her. In reality, she virtually ignored the Chamber, which angered some of the ministers immensely. At least a dozen of them, if not more, wished to dispose of her and ascend to the position of intendant themselves. (Decipher RPG module: Through a Glass, Darkly)
Shortly before her encounter with her primary universe counterpart, Intendant Kira was elected Overseer of the Alliance during a conclave on Khitomer, giving her authority over trade matters and placing her directly beneath Regent Worf. The appointment drew the ire of Intendant Deanna Troi of Betazed, who encouraged First Minister Winn Adami to assassinate Kira. Winn's associates in The Circle hired Annika Hansen to assassinate Kira, unaware that she was an agent of the Obsidian Order. On orders from her superior, Enabran Tain, Hansen revealed the plans to Kira and subsequently assassinated Winn on her behalf. (ST novel: Dark Passions, Book Two)
2370[]
- "I'm Kira Nerys. That makes two of us!"
- — Kira Nerys and Intendant Kira
In 2370, Typhuss James Halliwell was freed from being a slave to the Alliance by Intendant Kira Nerys and soon after that Kira made Typhuss her consort. (Typhuss999 storyline)
Later that year, she encountered Major Kira Nerys and Dr. Julian Bashir from primary universe when the two crossed over to the mirror universe, the Intendant became enamored with her counterpart. She related to Kira the story of James T. Kirk's visit to their universe in 2267 and how Spock had followed Kirk's advice and began to preach reforms of the Terran Empire, leading to its takeover by the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance. Intendant Kira was later betrayed by Sisko who helped Major Kira and Doctor Bashir to escape. (DS9 episode: "Crossover")
2371[]
Kira later encountered Commander Benjamin Sisko when he was brought to Terok Nor by Miles O'Brien in 2371. Believing him to be "her" Sisko, the Intendant was duped by him, long enough for him to convince Jennifer Sisko to join the Terran Rebellion. (DS9 episode: "Through the Looking Glass")
2372[]
After the Rebellion captured Terok Nor in 2372, the Intendant was captured by them before she was able to escape. Captain Sisko visited her in the brig, and attempted to convince her to tell him a way of delaying Regent Worf's ships. She did so, telling him their sensors could be fooled by warp "shadows". Intendant Kira was later freed by Nog, although she killed him on the off-chance that he would reveal her escape to the rebels. She was then able to escape from the station and sought refuge on Bajor. (DS9 episode: "Shattered Mirror")
2373[]
In 2373, Intendant Kira began to hunt down the Terran rebels with the IKS Negh'Var along with five Cardassian Galor class cruisers and seven Klingon bird-of-preys along with her Terran lover Typhuss James Halliwell. Intendant Kira was able to destroy a number of rebel bases with her fleet and destroyed many rebel ships. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2374[]
- "I'd be very disappointed if you didn't find the major... intoxicating. After all, she is me... Or the next best thing to me."
- — Intendant Kira to Bareil Antos
In 2374 Kira, with Bareil Antos, instigated a plan to steal a Bajoran orb from Deep Space 9. Bareil posed as the deceased former Vedek. She was prevented from doing so by Major Kira Nerys. (DS9 episode: "Resurrection")
2375[]
In 2375, Kira was later captured again - this time by the Alliance - and incarcerated on the Regent's flagship, the IKS Negh'Var. She was later able to escape once more, after the cloaking device was sabotaged by Rom. (DS9 episode: "The Emperor's New Cloak")
Several days later, however, her escape pod was detected and retrieved by a Klingon vessel. While she was in no way responsible for Worf's capture by the Terran Rebellion, she provided an easy scapegoat for the Klingons. She was taken to First City on Qo'noS, became the sex slave of Martok, Worf's successor as Regent, and was routinely humiliated by him over the course of several months. To add insult to injury, Martok insisted on referring to her as "Intendant" to emphasise her significantly reduced status. In order to undermine the authority of Intendant Ro Laren, the Regent had Kira sent to the Negh'Var, which Ro was using as her flagship and which the Alliance had seemingly recaptured in the intervening months, to serve as the Intendant's adjutant. Although her position was officially that of a low level bureaucrat, she was still treated as if she were a slave and was housed with the other slaves aboard the Negh'Var.
As part of her duties as Ro's adjutant, she reviewed reports of the theft of a large quantity of kelbonite (a refractory metal which is capable of interfering with sensors) and various items of missing equipment and material, all emanating from within a five lightyear radius of the Trivas system. By placing these disparate reports in context with one another, she correctly determined that the Terran Rebellion had captured the abandoned Alliance ore processing station Empok Nor, which was located in the Trivas system, and was using it as a shipyard. Furthermore, the rebels had stolen the kelbonite in order to prevent Alliance vessels from detecting their activities and launching an attack on the station. She took this information to General Duras but he dismissed her concerns and took no action, leading Kira to believe that he was afraid to act without the support of Ro. Kira then realised that she need to cultivate an ally who was not aboard the Negh'Var and contacted Captain Kurn of the IKS Ya'Vang, the younger brother of the disgraced former Regent Worf. After convincing him that his concerns were well justified, she persuaded him to allow her to accompany him during the attack on Empok Nor.
Kira's plan proved to be a complete success as the rebel forces at Empok Nor were overwhelmed by the Ya'Vang's attack within less than an hour. After Ro was convicted of treason against the Alliance by the Bajoran Parliament and turned over to the Klingons to face a war crimes tribunal, she was re-appointed Intendant of Bajor. Her first act was to promote Kurn to general and place him in command of the Negh'Var, which became her flagship. In the aftermath of the attack on Empok Nor, the rebel generals Julian Bashir and Zek were taken prisoner aboard the latter's ship the Capital Gain. Although she killed Zek almost immediately by stabbing him in his carotid artery, she took great pleasure in torturing Bashir over many months. She claimed that she owed him as he had tortured her while she was a prisoner on Terok Nor following its capture by the Terran Rebellion in 2372. (DS9 - Mirror Universe novel: Saturn's Children)
2376[]
In late 2376, Kira commissioned Professor Ke to made certain upgrades to the inter-dimensional transport device constructed by Miles "Smiley" O'Brien. After the Intendant insisted that Ke finish the project alone, Ke did so in January 2377 just before the IKS Negh'Var reached Harkoum. Only when he had finished did he realize that the device was now capable of transport to any parallel universe and not just the primary universe that the device had originally been built to access. After this realization, the Intendant killed Ke by poisoning the wine which they drank together. Kira had already taken the last dose of the antidote. (DS9 novel: Warpath)
2377[]
She was able to offer Martok sexual favors in exchange for the Klingon battle cruiser, the Negh'Var. The Regent let Intendant Kira use his beloved Klingon 9th fleet to attack Sindorin. In order to gain use of the fleet, however, Kira had to tell Martok much of her overall plan of conquest. (DS9 novel: Warpath)
The Iliana Ghemor of the mirror universe, an agent of the Terran Rebellion, had been assigned to assassinate the Intendant. However, she abandoned this assignment and travelled to the primary universe when she learned that her counterpart was planning to discover the Bajoran wormhole in the mirror universe and thereby become the Emissary of the Prophets. (DS9 novel: The Soul Key)
In 2377, the Klingon ninth fleet was destroyed in the Badlands after being sent there by Intendant Kira to destroy rebellion strongholds. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2378[]
By late 2378, Kira Nerys was the Intendant of the Cardassian Nor class station Tantok Nor located in the Kelrab system in Cardassian space and Gul Broca was her second-in-command. In 2378, Kira encounters Starfleet Captain Typhuss James Kira and fell in love with him, despite the fact that he hated her. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2379[]
In 2379, Intendant Kira crossed over to the primary universe and kidnapped Typhuss. After intense brainwashing from the Alliance, Typhuss became Kira's loyal servant, personal bodyguard and love slave. Kira enjoyed her new Terran slave until Colonel Samantha Carter rescued Typhuss and was able to break his brainwashing and then returning to the primary universe with Captain Kira. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2382-2383[]
In 2382, the Federation starship USS Intrepid-A captured Intendant Kira Nerys. Intendant Kira Nerys was in the Intrepid brig for one year then was released in 2383 by Captain Kira. By 2382, after intense brainwashing from Federation scientists, Intendant Kira was no longer a member of the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance. In 2383, Intendant Kira becomes a Captain's personal guard, protecting Typhuss James Kira. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2385[]
In 2385, Intendant Kira grew bored of the Federation and the primary universe, longing for "her old life" and not wanting to be bound to any man, even Typhuss. In the dead of night, she gave him the slip and returned to the mirror universe, where she returned to the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance.
She was allowed back because, during her stay with the Federation, Kira gathered much tactical information, which the Alliance believed could be used for their advantage should they choose to invade the primary universe. After Kira returned to the mirror universe, Kira was in command of the IKS Negh'Var II.
Upon hearing that Typhuss's counterpart in her universe had joined the New Terran Empire, Intendant Kira was mad that her former lover was against her and the Alliance. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2387[]
In 2387, Intendant Kira was later betrayed by Typhuss, her Terran lover, when he joined the Galactic Commonwealth and Typhuss was no longer the Intendant of the Terran slave colonies on Bajor. (Typhuss999 storyline)
2389[]
In 2389, Intendant Kira plots her revenge against Vice Admiral Kira after he convinced his mirror counterpart to join the Galactic Commonwealth in 2387. (Star Trek: Intrepid episodes: "Through A Mirror, Darkly", "Through A Mirror, Darkly, Part II")
2390[]
In 2390, Kira and Typhuss have been secretly getting back together and he left the Galactic Commonwealth, Helen Magnus and his ship to be with his true love, Kira. (Star Trek: Intrepid episode: "The Intendant Returns")
Typhuss returns to the mirror universe to make a deal with Intendant Kira, he will help her find a replacement Intendant in return Kira and mirror Typhuss will leave him alone, not go into his universe or capture him. The Commonwealth was conducting random patrols for any Alliance ships until they detected an escape pod and discovered Intendant Kira. They took her to the new Terran base. Typhuss arrived at the new base and asked for a raider but Colonel John Martin told him no because John wouldn't let him go alone to Alliance space. After being called to the brig, John and Typhuss find Intendant Kira there. Later Typhuss wants Kira to be let out of the brig but John refused then Typhuss hits John and he is out cold as Typhuss lets Intendant Kira go and escape from the base on a raider with the Defiant and Colonel Martin chasing them. Typhuss was unsure where to go until he wanted to go to Tantok Nor, Kira told him that it is a Alliance station they would fire on them and the Defiant. Then they set course for the Paulson Nebula and lose the Defiant when they enter the nebula. (Star Trek: Intrepid episode: "The New Intendant")
2391[]
In 2391, after Intendant Kira brainwashed Typhuss, she took him to the mirror universe aboard a Klingon Vor'cha-class attack cruiser. At Tantok Nor, Typhuss accepted Kira's offer to join the Alliance and become a Intendant. (Star Trek: Intrepid episode: "The Intendant's Lure")
Alternate mirror universes[]
In an alternate mirror universe, Kira was part of a Maquis cell operating in the Bajoran sector. Kira was born to Kira Taban and Kira Meru in November 2343 in the Dahkur Province on Bajor. The Bajora cell of the Maquis was led by Major Kira. The Bajora cell operated in the Bajoran sector and they hid in the gravitic anomalies in the Denorios Belt from which they often led assaults on Terran mining station, Deep Space Mining Station 9, commanded by Benjamin Sisko. The Bajora cell main base was hidden on a small planetoid in the Denorios Belt. In 2383, Shakaar Edon took over as leader of the Bajora cell after Major Kira leaves with Captain Kira to go to his universe. (Star Trek: Terran Empire)
In another alternate mirror universe, Intendant Kira Nerys met her end in early 2377, when she was killed by Iliana Ghemor and took her place. According to the alternate version of Iliana Ghemor, the Intendant's impersonator intends to fulfill Trakor's First Prophecy, becoming the Emissary of the Prophets instead of Benjamin Sisko, who was seemingly killed some years prior. Ghemor arrived at the alternate Terok Nor in command of a fleet of Alliance ships, still under the guise of the Intendant. She then destroyed Bajor's capital of Ashalla and threatened continued destruction of the planet if the rebels did not capitulate the station, which they immediately did. Once in control of the station, she moved it toward the wormhole and placed herself in the airlock that would first touch the wormhole's event horizon in the hopes that she would complete the prophecy and become the Emissary.
In a parallel mirror universe Intendant Kira Nerys was able to seduce Typhuss in 2378 and take him to the mirror universe. After Intendant Kira seduced Typhuss, Intendant Kira and Typhuss became lovers. Kira and Typhuss lived on the Alliance controlled station Terok Nor. (Typhuss999 storyline)
Encounter with the alternate mirror universe[]
In 2374, Intendant Kira encountered Captain Kathryn Janeway of the ISS Voyager of the Terran Empire from an alternate mirror universe. Intendant Kira fell in love with Kathryn Janeway and Janeway remained on Terok Nor for a few months until Kira could find a way to return Janeway to her universe. While on the station Janeway became Intendant Kira's lover. Kira modified a multidimensional transporter device to allow Janeway to return to her universe, although the power required was large.
