Requiring some time on standby and being, according to legend, on his death bed, Braxiatel travelled back in time and paid an [[ascetic]] to transmute him into crystal, ensuring that he would be preserved. He remained within the crystal, which became known as the [[Stone of Barter]], for more than three thousand years.

Braxiatel was freed by [[Saf]] in [[2607]], having been convinced by Benny, who was travelling with [[Maggie Matsumoto]], to do so. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Empire State (audio story)|The Empire State]]'') He placed himself inside a [[Zero Cabinet|null-field casket]] during their journey to the Collection in order to protect himself and showed no empathy after Maggie became [[anchorite]] for the ''[[Gravity Rainbow]]''. However, Maggie heard him in a [[dream]] asking her if there was any way for her to get out and telling her to be careful.

Braxiatel encouraged the Draconians to believe that Benny was behind the acts of resistance against them and ensured that they were infected with the [[Harvey Virus]], causing them to [[hallucination|hallucinate]] and become obsessed with her. He secretly put an end to the war between them and the [[Mim]] by convincing [[Hass]] to wipe out the entire [[Mimsphere]] and framing the Draconians. After this, [[Kothar]] informed Braxiatel that the Collection would be allowed sovereignty but would be considered part of Draconian space and would receive the [[Draconian Empire|Empire]]'s protection.

Jason | When Jason confronted Braxiatel about messing around with the past and future, Braxiatel admitted that he removed [[Keith Branigan Kane-Summerfield|Keith]] and [[Rebecca Kane-Summerfield]] from the timeline as they would have taken up too much of Benny's time and he needed her at his side and also confessed to a number of other alterations including the [[Draconian-Mim War]]. He told Peter that Jason was planning on killing his mother and everyone on the Collection, leading Peter to kill Jason. As Jason died, Braxiatel told him that he was never good enough for Benny.

Braxiatel comforted Benny upon her return to the Collection and attempted to manipulate Bernice to bring her closer to him, having [[Doggles]] attempt to [[rape]] her so that he could save her. He regained dominance of the Collection through a puppet government and, after Benny rejected Braxiatel and fled with Peter, he decided not to send [[robot]]s after her as he knew that she would always return.

Braxiatel once asked Benny to paint him which he used to keep as part of his vault in the [[Vingus Bank]]. The bank staff were clones of him for security reasons. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Glory Days (audio story)|Glory Days]]'') | |||
Braxiatel's reasons for setting up the Collection where he did were later revealed to be due to the location of a great temporal leak depositing enough power to fuel a hundred colonies, or perhaps even bring back his own people. He began to syphon the leak, moving it to the planet [[Maximediras]] which he had just purchased following the failure of its economy, thinking it could potentially become a new homeworld for his people. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Resurrecting the Past (audio story)|Resurrecting the Past]]'') Whilst plotting to restore his people he became aware of the [[Deindum]], a species in the future who would learn the secret of time travel and could rival his own people. He attempted to prevent their creation using Frost but was ironically stopped by the involvement of Bernice Summerfield and Robyn, an android created by this race and sent back in time to ensure their creation.
