In the mirror universe, Kodos was, like his primary universe counterpart, the governor of Tarsus IV when the Virogen plague hit the planet, causing widespread famine. In this universe, he ordered the execution of 4,000 colonists as his counterpart did. However, this version of Kodos was executed by James T. Kirk and the small gang of children Kirk led to seize control of the food warehouses. (ST novel: Spectre)
