'''Zanak''' was a pleasant planet, with green fields, lush vegetation and friendly, [[Near-human]] natives. It was quite prosperous until the reign of [[Xanxia|Queen Xanxia]]. The queen launched galactic wars which ultimately ended up ruining Zanak, leaving only a few nomadic tribes alive. | '''Zanak''' was a pleasant planet, with green fields, lush vegetation and friendly, [[Near-human]] natives.

Later, | Later, [[the Captain]] crash-landed on Zanak in his ship, the ''[[Vantarialis]]''. He hollowed out the [[planet]], which, using [[transmat|powerful engines]], could materialise around other [[planet]]s and steal their mineral wealth. It would then crush the planets into compressed cores small enough to carry. The Captain ruled from a mountain fortress known as [[the Bridge]]. He, in turn, answered to Xanxia, who had recreated him in his current cyborg form. Xanxia had gutted her entire planet to provide the power needed to control the [[time dam]]s that kept her body frozen in its last few seconds of life while she projected her consciousness into a new, virtually-generated body in the form of the Captain's nurse. | ||
The [[Fourth Doctor]] visited Zanak and helped the [[Mentiad]]s overthrow both the Captain and Xanxia. The Bridge was destroyed, allowing Zanak to settle in the position that had once been occupied by the planet [[Calufrax]], its interior mass replaced by the remnants of the planets that Zanak had destroyed and the Captain had preserved as part of a plan to destroy Xanxia (with the exception of Calufrax, which had been the second segment of the [[Key to Time]]).
