'''Magnus Drake''' was the [[Chief executive officer|CEO]] of [[Drake | '''Magnus Drake''' was a [[Dalek duplicate]] installed on [[Earth]] by the [[Dalek]]s in the wake of their failed [[2180s]] invasion of [[Earth]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Vengeance (audio story)|Vengeance]]'') He served as [[Chief executive officer|CEO]] of [[Drake Interplanetary]] in the [[23rd century]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Faustian (audio story)|Faustian]], [[Vengeance (audio story)|Vengeance]]'') and was tasked with driving Earth to create new technologies that the Daleks could harvest when they returned, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Vengeance (audio story)|Vengeance]]'') all, ironically, under the guise of improving Earth's defences against a potential repeat invasion. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Faustian (audio story)|Faustian]]'') | ||
Although aware of his true nature and loyal to the Dalek cause, Drake had a will of his own. By improving on the technologies that had created him, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Vengeance (audio story)|Vengeance]]'') he gained a form of [[immortality]], growing a large number of [[clone]]s of himself and downloading his memories into a computer at the end of each day of his life. If his currently-active body died, the next one would reemerge in his stead. | |||
As yet unaware of Drake's true nature, {{Roberts}} killed Drake in his office by feeding him to his own pet [[shark]]s, and [[identity theft|stole his identity]]. The resurrected Drake chose to let the Master continue the charade, viewing it as an effective vacation: the Master handled the running of Drake Interplanetary in a ruthless way that Drake found quite satisfactory.
