At one point, Braxiatel held the position of [[Lord Burner]], the personal assassin of President [[Pandad VII]], who "burned" people from history. During this time, he allowed "[[First Doctor|an old man]]" and "[[Susan Campbell|his granddaughter]]" to flee Gallifrey, even though Braxiatel had been given the order to erase them from history. The very same day, President Pandad died when a power relay in his office overloaded; an inquiry headed by Braxiatel found that this was an accident.

In his position as the Time | In his position as the Time Lords' unofficial ambassador, Braxiatel organised the [[Armageddon Convention]], which he tried to get the [[Third Doctor]] to chair, but after the [[The Three Doctors (TV story)|Omega crisis]], his agents accidentally brought the [[First Doctor|wrong incarnation]]. The Convention was not particularly successful, although it did outlaw the use of [[Cyberbomb]]s. Due to the relative failure of the Convention, Braxiatel decided to begin focusing on building up his Collection rather than involving himself in galactic politics.

Eventually Braxiatel became [[High Chancellor]], a post empty for many years, since Romana's predecessor had overthrown ''his'' predecessor. Mere hours later Braxiatel had to use his mind to contain the past and present forms of [[Pandora]]. Pandora would be able to escape if he ever connected to [[the Matrix]] or [[telepathy|telepathically]] communicated with another Time Lord mind, so Braxiatel exiled himself from Gallifrey.

When Romana destroyed the future form of Pandora (as well as its intelligence), it also destroyed the Matrix. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Warfare (audio story)|Warfare]]'') After Romana was removed from office, Braxiatel returned briefly and unexpectedly to Gallifrey and assumed the post of [[Lord President]], since there was now nowhere for the Pandora entity to escape to. Having conspired with [[Matthias]], he claimed that as Inquisitor [[Darkel]] had cancelled much of Romana's presidential edicts, he was restored to the position of Chancellor and Vice-President. His first act was to free Romana. | When Romana destroyed the future form of Pandora (as well as its intelligence), it also destroyed the [[The Matrix |Matrix]].

The ambitious Darkel goaded Braxiatel into losing control of Pandora, believing that it would destroy Braxiatel's mind. Braxiatel revealed that only a remnant of the entity had ever been in his mind; the bulk of it had sought refuge in Darkel's mind and Braxiatel had merely been the key that kept it restrained. Freed, Pandora consumed both Darkel and itself. Immediately resigning, Braxiatel named Matthias his successor, much to Romana's surprise, and returned to his exile, retaining the last fragments of Pandora within him.
