For her primary universe counterpart, see T'Pol.

In the Mirror Universe, T'Pol was a female Vulcan serving in the Imperial Starfleet of the Terran Empire in the 22nd century. As of 2155, she held the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and served as science officer aboard the ISS Enterprise.

Her mother was T'Les, an outspoken proponent of the teachings of Surak. When she left her position at the Vulcan Science Academy to join the anti-Imperial rebellion, T'Pol became the subject of suspicion by many. However, Captain Maximilian Forrest retained his faith in T'Pol's loyalty.

After Commander Jonathan Archer mutinied against Forrest, he made T'Pol his first officer, believing her loyal to him. In fact, T'Pol conspired against Archer, both while aboard the Enterprise, and later on the USS Defiant. When Archer declared his intention to overthrow the Emperor of the Terran Empire, T'Pol recruited Crewman Soval of the ISS Avenger and Dr. Phlox to stop him, and to provide the Defiant specifications to the anti-Empire rebellion. Her plot was discovered, however, and she was thrown into the ship's brig. (ENT episode: "In a Mirror, Darkly")

T'Pol was able to escape with the aid of Staal, a Vulcan posing as a human Starfleet officer. Together, they stole one of the Defiant's shuttles, the McCool, delivering it to rebels on planet Vulcan.

For three months following, T'Pol commanded the Suurok-class starship, Ni'Var, and was assigned by T'Pau with defending rebel stronghold Aldus Prime from Starfleet. However, T'Pol's allegiances shifted when T'Pau attempted to have her murdered, and she learned her mother had likewise been killed on T'Pau's orders. T'Pol returned to Aldus Prime, aided Sato's escape and her defeat of the rebel fleet, and killed T'Pau.

In return for her efforts, Empress Sato named T'Pol Supreme Regent of Vulcan. T'Pol also remained a close counselor to the Empress, advising her on the issue of initiating contact with the Romulan Star Empire. (ENT novel: Age of the Empress)

In 2156, T'Pol helped interogate Commander Tucker for the ISS Nobunaga's prefix code while serving as Regent under Empress Sato I. (ENT short story: "Nobunaga")
