'''Spock''' was [[first officer]] of the [[ISS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|ISS ''Enterprise'']] in [[Timeline|2267]]. 

== Career ==
Like his [[Spock (mirror)|counterpart]] in the [[mirror universe]], Spock was a logical being who was loyal to his captain, [[James T. Kirk]], and chose to warn him when he was ordered by the [[Terran Empire]] to kill him and take command if he did not launch an attack against the [[Halkan]]s in retribution for their refusal to negotiate with the Empire.

Based on his captain's apparently erratic behavior, Spock correctly deduced that Kirk had actually been accidentally replaced by his counterpart from the mirror universe, and devised a means of returning [[James T. Kirk (mirror)|Kirk]], [[Montgomery Scott (mirror)|Scotty]], [[Leonard McCoy (mirror)|McCoy]], and [[Uhura (mirror)|Uhura]] to their original ship.

Before Kirk left, believing that Spock would one day become captain of the ''Enterprise'', he planted a seed of doubt about the inevitability of the Empire, asking Spock if violence was the only logical answer. Spock promised to consider Kirk's words. ([[MM]])

As Kirk predicted, Spock later on became the captain of the ''Enterprise''. Spock used the ship as a power base to accumulate influence, and eventually rose to become leader of the Terran Empire. He instituted major [[reform]]s, turning the Empire into a more peaceful and less aggressive power. Spock's reforms left the Empire too weak to fight the [[Klingon-Cardassian Alliance]], who conquered the entire Terran Empire, enslaving the [[Terran]]s themselves as well as the [[Vulcan]]s. ([[CO]])

==Background Information==
Spock was played by [[:en:Leonard Nimoy|Leonard Nimoy]], who also portrayed the mirror universe [[Spock (mirror)|Spock]]. Both characters were identical, except for a goatee; as a result, many {{w|Evil twin#Appearances|evil twins}} in satirical works have goatees.

In 1998, Nimoy said he would have liked to play the mirror Spock in ''[[:en:Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]''. This unfortunately never came to fruition.

The representation of Spock in "Mirror, Mirror" was the inspiration behind the name for the progressive-metal group "Spock's Beard".
