| '''Drax''' was a [[renegade Time Lord]] with a knack for tinkering and [[engineering]]. He knew [[the Doctor]] before either had left their home [[planet]] of [[Gallifrey]]. | | [[Drax]]'s '''eighth incarnation''' posed as '''Inspector Fleur McCormick''', a galactic [[police inspector]], during a plot hatched by [[Third Drax|a previous incarnation]] of hers. The sole female incarnation of the Time Lord, she led a band of her previous and future incarnations who posed as her "half a dozen best men". With the unwitting help of the [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Romana II]], they raided the most secure safe-house in history. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Trouble with Drax (audio story)|The Trouble with Drax]]'') |

| == Alternate timeline == | | == Biography == |
| In an [[alternate timeline]] Drax cooperated alongside [[the Master]], [[the Monk]], and [[the Rani]] to try to destroy the world using a DNA recombinator, turning the human race into a [[gestalt]] [[consciousness]] which could be used as a weapon to conquer the universe. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Quantum Archangel (novel)|The Quantum Archangel]]'')
| | After regenerating into her first female body, Drax aided her various selves in a scheme to ensure that they could successfully cooperate with one another. Upon arriving on [[Altrazar]], she confronted the [[Fourth Doctor]], whom she had "mistaken" to be Drax. |
|
| |
|
| == Personality ==
| | When the Doctor and Romana believed that they had rounded up all of the Draxes on the ''[[Rutan's Tendril]]'', they called her to arrest the Time Lord. By the time the Doctor and Romana realised that Drax must have known he would have been arrested over different incarnations, they realised the truth about McCormick and her men. When they returned all of Drax's incarnations had escaped in [[Drax's TARDIS|their TARDIS]]. The [[Fifth Drax]] commented later after their escape the gender switch had been worth it. This Drax and her [[Twelfth Drax|Twelfth Incarnation]] teased one another at the same time. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Trouble with Drax (audio story)|The Trouble with Drax]]'') |
| Drax showed great technological aptitude. However, he could not grasp [[temporal theory]] and failed the class. While Drax could not grasp temporal theory, he had worked out enough about the [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect limiter|Blinovitch Limitation effect limiter]] to know its limitations and also to create an endless paradox from his third incarnation onwards to his thirteenth to possess the device and also commit numerous crimes with two or more of his future lives.

|
| |
|
| He also showed disrespect towards the [[Laws of Time]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Trouble with Drax (audio story)|The Trouble with Drax]]'')

| During his ten-year prison stay, Drax picked up Brixton's local accent and idioms, which remained part of his speech patterns after he left Earth and resumed his travels. This cockney accent would last for a number of regenerations, but by the twelfth, it would be gone. When Drax met [[K9 Mark II]] and marvelled at the "little tin dog", K9 noted Drax's silliness. Although Drax was not above criminal activity and weapons dealing for personal gain, he displayed a sense of what was morally right and bemoaned having to assist the Shadow in his schemes. He was quick to assure others that he didn't involve himself with armaments on a regular basis. The Doctor talked him round into joining him against the Shadow without much trouble. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Armageddon Factor]], ''[[AUDIO]]'': [[The Trouble with Drax (audio story)|The Trouble with Drax]]'')

| | |
| Despite some differences, the incarnations of Drax seemed more amiable to one another compared to cases whenever the Doctors met, and despite the dangers of interacting with their own past and future they planned for events that happened in their future, such as having a female incarnation and later reminiscing about the gender switch being worth it. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Trouble with Drax (audio story)|The Trouble with Drax]]'')

| | |
| == Behind the scenes ==
| |
| * Although Drax's TARDIS is somewhere around in ''[[The Armageddon Factor (TV story)|The Armageddon Factor]]'', only components from it are seen on-screen. The interactive ''[[Make Your Own Adventure with Doctor Who]]'' book [[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Search for the Doctor (novel)|Search for the Doctor]]'' included Drax as a character, and described his TARDIS as taking the shape of a convertible [[car]], the registration plate of which read: "TARDIS".
| |
| * According to [[NOTVALID]]: ''[[Dalek: Spoof Scenes (short story)|Dalek: Spoof Scenes]]'', in a version of events where the [[Last Great Time War]] was fought against the [[Drashig]]s rather than the [[Dalek]]s, the [[Ninth Doctor]] cited Drax as one of the people who'd perished in the War, alongside [[Damon (Arc of Infinity)|Damon]], [[Spandrell]] and [[the Monk|the Meddling Monk]].
