- For the primary universe counterpart, see Hengist.
In the mirror universe, John Hengist was a 23rd century man who worked for the Terran Empire's Bureau of Interstellar Hegemony and served as the administrator of Rigel III during the 2260s.
One of the rising stars of the Bureau of Interstellar Hegemony, John Hengist brilliantly managed Rigel III's complex economy. After investigators connected him to a series of shallow graves in a national park near Rigel III’s capital, he confessed to history’s most infamous murders. He was, he said, possessed by an immortal entity responsible for the killing sprees of Redjac, Beratis, Kesla, and Jack the Ripper.
A fascinated public made him a celebrity and the Emperor granted him a rare license to kill. Reviewers praised his recently-published memoirs as an inspirational manual destined for classic status. Tight security surrounded Hengist to keep groupies away from him, causing him to complain that they made his job too difficult and his hobby too easy. (Decipher RPG module: Through a Glass, Darkly)
