Z'arkbelst

Deity worshipped by an Andorian cult. They believed Joel Hodges was the next incarnation of this deity and tried to take him back to Andor so they could worship him and shower him with riches. When Joel was old enough, he went to Andor of his own volition to become the Z'arkbelst and later wrote the book "I Was A Teenage Z'arkbelst". (Trials of Youth [REJ]) Years later, an issue with their cult registration (and Z'assy's killing of the Undersecretary for Cults, Parks, and Recreation) forced the group to leave Andor and move to the Andorian colony in Sector 49-A near Waystation. Joel decided that his position as Z'arkbelst entitled him to anything he desired. Seeing the grown-up Lisa Beck, he decided that he desired her and kidnapped her from Waystation to be his consort. Beck, Stephanie Hodges, and Walter Morales informed him that his Z'arkbelst powers didn't extend that far. (That Certain Someone [WAY])
