'''Mandrake the Lizard King''' was an imaginary enemy that the [[First Doctor]] created as a child to combat his loneliness, the Doctor often going up into the mountains to face "Mandrake" - really a dead lizard pinned to a discarded engine part - with his deadly stick, until he began to attend the academy and made other friends.

When [[Crozier]] used his machine on the [[Sixth Doctor]], which caused the Doctor to briefly regress to a selfish, childish state ([[TV]]: ''[[Mindwarp (TV story)|Mindwarp]]''), the essence of Mandrake entered the machine and became a mind parasite. When Crozier went to place Lord [[Kiv]] in [[Peri Brown]], it placed itself in her mind. Believing itself to be a real enemy whom the Doctor had erased from all written history, Mandrake set out to try and create an empire for himself, poisoning [[Yrcanos]] and then trying to arrange a new marriage for Peri that would give him the chance to form a new army. However, this plan was hampered due to Peri's infection by [[Spectrox toxaemia]] rendering her infertile, as no ruler would willingly marry a sterile queen who couldn't continue the royal line.
