In the mirror universe, Hoshi Sato II was a Terran female who ruled as the Empress of the Terran Empire during the mid to late 23rd century.

She was a clone of Hoshi Sato I. During her reign, she gained the sobriquet "The Murderess of Andoria". (TOS - Mirror Universe novel: The Sorrows of Empire)

During her reign, news surfaced that the Klingons were developing a new weapon which posed a threat to the Empire. Sato first ordered the ISS Indomitable and ISS Thermopylae to investigate. Following the destruction of the ISS Thermopylae during a Klingon ambush, the ISS Constellation, under the command of Commodore Robert April, was then ordered to locate and secure the weapon for the empress.

The Empress had previously been the target of an assassination attempt by one of her senior military advisers, which was thwarted by Nathan Thorpe, a member of her personal security detail, single-handedly. In the process, he sustained serious wounds but managed to kill the duplicitous admiral. In gratitude, she presented Thorpe with a Japanese katana sword as well as placing him in command of the Constellation. (TOS - Mirror Universe short story: "Ill Winds")

Evidently at some point either during or after 2251 and prior to 2268, Empress Sato II lost – and then subsequently regained – her Imperial throne following the ascendancy (and later, disappearance) of Emperor Philippa Georgiou in the Mirror Universe. Indeed, this interregnum can now be narrowed down even further thanks to the DSC novel Die Standing, with the Mirror Georgiou mentioning having conquered a particular alien race in 2253, implying that Sato II's first reign ended at some undetermined point during the two years previous. It is therefore reasonable to assume that she regained her throne (under as-yet-unrevealed circumstances) following Emperor Georgiou's crossover into the Primary universe in early 2257.

She died in 2268, having been suffocated with a pillow by her successor Hoshi Sato III, the third and last Empress of the Sato Dynasty who was desposed by Spock in 2277. (TOS - Mirror Universe novel: The Sorrows of Empire)
