Joachim (Star Trek)

[1][2] The official Star Trek site maintained by Paramount Pictures describes Joachim as a "genetically superior blonde-haired young man".

[1][4][5] In contrast, Greg Cox's non-canon novels The Eugenics Wars (Volume 1 & 2) and To Reign in Hell: The Exile of Khan Noonien Singh depict Joachim as the son of Joaquin and another SS Botany Bay survivor, Suzette Ling.

[6] In Cox's books, Joachim and the others who accompany Khan in Star Trek II were born in exile on Ceti Alpha V. Paramount Pictures' official Star Trek website maintains separate entries for Joaquin Archived 2007-09-30 at the Wayback Machine and Joachim Archived 2006-12-31 at the Wayback Machine.

[12] According to dialog in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Borderland", the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s was a conflict between genetic "augments" that lead to 30 million deaths.

[13] In the wake of this turmoil, Khan, Joaquin, and 82 other followers escaped Earth aboard the SS Botany Bay, a modified freighter that carried them in suspended animation for nearly 300 years.

Khan shortly thereafter detonates the Genesis device in an unsuccessful attempt to kill Kirk, destroying the Reliant and everyone aboard.

"[15] FASA's Star Trek role-playing game has a supplement that gives full statistics for Joachim so that he can be used as a non-player character.
