Emissary of the Prophets

The Emissary of the Prophets is Benjamin Sisko's identity to millions of Bajorans. It was his destiny from birth, as he was part Prophet as his mother Sarah Sisko was inhabited by a Prophet to make sure she conceived and gave birth to him.

The arrival of the Emissary was predicted by several Bajoran writers, who wrote what they saw in several Prophecies. Sisko was revealed to be the Emissary when he met with Kai Opaka Sulan shortly after taking command of Deep Space 9 in 2369. Sisko later found the Bajoran wormhole/Celestial Temple, something that only the Emissary could do. (DS9 episode & novelization: "Emissary")
