Braxiatel never wanted to conform and was attracted by the wealth of knowledge in the outer [[universe]]. Keen to leave Gallifrey, he excelled at the Academy and passed with a handful of firsts. In time, Braxiatel became an unofficial ambassador for the [[Time Lord]]s. This allowed him to be a permanent presence out in the universe.

[[Maris]]' [[potential engine]] told him that the Doctor's brother was a government stooge. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Celestial Intervention A Gallifreyan Noir (short story)|Celestial Intervention A Gallifreyan Noir]]'') 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 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.

Braxiatel was not done: hearing rumours of a threat against Gallifrey and deciding that in its weakened state the world was doomed, he hatched a scheme to preserve the Time Lord [[biodata]] archive, holding the genetic patterns of all Time Lords, past and present, hoping to reconstruct Gallifrey after its inevitable fall. As the [[Free Time]] [[Dogma Virus]] ravaged Gallifrey, Matthias ordered Romana to find the cure, then go into exile. Romana followed the trail, only to find Braxiatel. He had nominated Matthias knowing that whoever was President was doomed to fall to the Dogma virus. The only cure was to end the Time Lords' regeneration capabilities. With [[K9]]'s help, Braxiatel used a [[Time Scoop]] to collect the biodata archive. He asked Romana to decide whether to administer the cure or to let Gallifrey die and rebuild it using the biodata.

Braxiatel took Romana, Leela, K9 and Narvin to [[Axis|the Axis]]. They explored numerous alternate Gallifreys to find one on which they could live. The first [[Gallifrey (Reborn)|Gallifrey]] they explored, was one where Romana didn't travel with the Doctor. He became intrigued when one of the Time Lords tried to sell his future incarnations to Brax and Romana. He flirted with the alternative version of Romana. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Reborn (audio story)|Reborn]]'') He stayed behind on the axis so that no-one from an alternate timeline could take over it. On one of these Gallifreys, they encountered an alternate version of [[Burner Doctor|the Doctor]], who returned to the Axis. It turned out the Doctor meant to assassinate Braxiatel, and during a fight, they fell into one of the Axis's portals. Romana said it likely that they would be falling through time for eternity, but it was possible that one or both of them would end up in one of the timelines.

At some point, Braxiatel rescued [[Peter Summerfield]] from the planet [[Bastion]], where he had been stranded as a slave after he was separated from his mother, and brought him to Legion. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenman (audio story)|The Curse of Fenman]]'', ''[[Paradise Frost (audio story)|Paradise Frost]]'') He located Bernice in a stasis capsule on a planet called [[Zordin|Atlantis]], where he left her a message, claiming he was not the same man who she once knew and that he was on Legion with Peter. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Brand Management (audio story)|Brand Management]]'') Bernice travelled to Legion, and though she tried to attack him, Braxiatel claimed he had never met Benny before. By this point, Braxiatel owned a club in Legion city called the [[White Rabbit (Legion)|White Rabbit]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Paradise Frost (audio story)|Paradise Frost]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Slender-Fingered Cats of Bubastis]]'')

He tried his best to make Benny comfortable. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Vesuvius Falling]]'') He decided to buy a house for Benny outside Legion City for her to store her archaeological finds. He bought it from [[Galot]], one of his other self's acquaintances. Benny then inquired into how he wasn't the Braxiatel she knew. He explained that there were other versions of him and they knew the bigger picture, and the more he knew about the other Braxiatel he didn't like him. He got Benny to check over the base. It was also at this point he bought [[the Irverfield]] to use on missions to other planets. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Everybody Loves Irving (audio story)|Everybody Loves Irving]]'')

He celebrated Advent with Benny. On his way to Benny's place, he became very agitated when he saw [[Antonio Tulloch]] whom he knew was dead. He wanted to know what [[Avril Fenman]]'s plan was. He told Benny that the only reason he employed Jack was that he had one of Fenman's crystals in him. He tricked Fenman when she manifested and blew up [[Hera]], as he knew he had to protect Peter and Benny. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenman (audio story)|The Curse of Fenman]]'')

Another version of Braxiatel became the head of the [[Department of Theatrology]] at [[St Oscar's University]] on the [[planet]] [[Dellah]], where he met [[Bernice Summerfield]] after her meeting with his other self. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dragons' Wrath (novel)|Dragons' Wrath]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Disassembled]]'') They became friends, and he supported her in several adventures. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings]]'', ''[[The Medusa Effect]]'', ''[[Deadfall]]'') After Bernice obtained a post at the archaeology department in [[2593]], the pair of them became entangled in many adventures. Braxiatel was on Dellah during the rise of the [[All-High God]]s and helped to evacuate a group of survivors. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Where Angels Fear]]'')

During this time, he won [[KS-159]], the future home of his Collection. Braxiatel supported Benny when she was dying and through her memory-loss that came with the recovery, conspiring with Jason, Chris, and Clarence to stop Benny from abandoning them all for the dangerous Eastern Rim. Braxiatel supported the Time Lords when their problems with [[the People]] had to be resolved. He supported the team in sending Dellah back to the Gods' universe, destroying that threat and ending the prospect of a war between the People and the Time Lords. In the aftermath, after leaving Vremnya, Braxiatel invited Benny to join him on the newly established Collection. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tears of the Oracle]]'', ''[[Return to the Fractured Planet]]'', ''[[The Joy Device]]'', ''[[Twilight of the Gods (BNA novel)|Twilight of the Gods]]'', ''[[The Doomsday Manuscript (novel)|The Doomsday Manuscript]]'')

The [[Braxiatel Collection]] (one of the greatest art galleries in [[Mutter's Spiral|the galaxy]]) was founded by Braxiatel on KS-159. It had extensive archaeological libraries which could be used with Braxiatel's permission. Braxiatel's collection of books contained every book banned by the [[Catholic Church]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tears of the Oracle (novel)|Tears of the Oracle]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Theatre of War (novel)|Theatre of War]]'')

He often used Benny as an expert as part of his art dealings. Wishing to obtain a [[Halstad Harp]] he took her to an auction on [[Palastrid]].

While Benny was working at the Braxiatel Collection, a conspiracy started to form around Braxiatel. While all the characters were shown dark, twisted mirror images of themselves, Braxiatel was unaffected, and when [[Jason Kane]] wondered if the real Braxiatel was the mirror version, he was brainwashed into an inability to be suspicious of Braxiatel. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Mirror Effect (audio story)|The Mirror Effect]]'') Further incidents showed the Time Lord to be far more dangerous and manipulative than he let on — he used a brainwashed Jason for his own ends, had murder done in his name, and caused a civil war in the [[Domus]] system. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Life in Pieces]]'')

The Doctor had sent her to find out more information about [[Manaxus]]. Braxiatel helped her in her work. He later provided a ship for her to get to [[Heletia]] and get the information to the Doctor. He had a handwritten version of ''[[The Good Soldiers]]'' written by the Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Theatre of War]]'')

Long after Braxiatel employed anyone at the Collection, Bernice found him in the wine cellars of a monastery on Old Earth. Braxiatel told her that he never had a brother so that everyone would believe that the Doctor was dead. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shape of the Hole]]'')
