Braxiatel lived on [[Gallifrey]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Empire of Glass (novel)|The Empire of Glass]]'', etc.) and had a brother, [[the Doctor]]. He would later imply that he had lost either a daughter or a sister ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tears of the Oracle (novel)|Tears of the Oracle]]'') and the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] mentioned having [[the Doctor's sisters|sisters]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Arachnids in the UK (TV story)|Arachnids in the UK]]'') | |||
He studied at the [[Time Lord Academy]], an experience that he hated and during which he was nicknamed "Icicle". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Lies (audio story)|Lies]]'') He was [[tutor]]ed by [[Danna]] and learnt from her how to be a [[diplomat]] and a [[soldier]], as well as how to shoot down a whole flock of [[Pazitha bat]]s with one shot. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Soldier Obscura (audio story)|Soldier Obscura]]'') A lesson that he learnt at school was that "[[time]]" plays silly buggers with us all". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Winging It (short story)|Winging It]]'') | |||
Never wanting to conform and being attracted by the wealth of [[knowledge]] in the outer [[universe]], Braxiatel was keen to leave Gallifrey and excelled at the Academy, passing with a handful of firsts. He became an unofficial [[ambassador]] for the [[Time Lord]]s, dealing with off-world affairs that he pretended not to be wholly interested in so as to disguise his desire to leave. He was eventually able to persuade the Time Lords that he would be of more use as an unofficial permanent presence off-world. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tears of the Oracle (novel)|Tears of the Oracle]]'') | |||
[[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 Foreman|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".
