Later, the [[Black Guardian]]'s agent, [[the Shadow]], imprisoned Drax and forced him to build and maintain a giant [[computer]] called [[Mentalis]] on the deserted [[planet]] [[Zeos]]. Mentalis carried out a war against the neighbouring planet of [[Atrios]]. | Later, the [[Black Guardian]]'s agent, [[the Shadow]], imprisoned Drax and forced him to build and maintain a giant [[computer]] called [[Mentalis]] on the deserted [[planet]] [[Zeos]].

450 years later in their personal timelines, Drax, then in his second incarnation, and the Doctor met again. While searching for the last segment of the [[Key to Time]], the [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Romana I]] arrived on Zeos. Drax, under the Shadow's orders, reluctantly led the Doctor into a trap. Easily seeing through Drax's pretence, the Doctor talked him into joining forces against the Shadow. With Drax's assistance, the Doctor recovered [[Astra of Atrios|the final segment of the Key to Time]]. Afterward, Drax stayed on Atrios to help rebuild that world. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Armageddon Factor]]'') During that time Drax had hacked the directional unit of the Doctor's TARDIS. | 450 years later in their personal timelines, Drax, then in his second incarnation, and the Doctor met again.

Later, after he had regenerated, the Third Drax gained the map to [[Altrazar]]. The Fourth Doctor was later used as a fall guy in a con involving the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth incarnation of Drax, who used a [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect]] [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect limiter|limiter]]. The fifth Drax was using the identity "Galdron Cabot" (a criminal-turned-businessman), the eighth - "Fleur McCormick" (galactic police officer, the only female incarnation of Drax), the twelfth - "Charles Kirkland" (businessman and Cabot's rival), and the ninth - "Rosser" (Kirkland's butler). The fourth, sixth, seventh, tenth, eleventh and thirteenth incarnations were McCormick's "half a dozen best men". The Doctor was conned into stealing the [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect limiter]], which was what allowed so many Draxes to successfully cooperate on this scheme in the first place.

Drax showed great technological aptitude. However, he could not grasp [[temporal theory]] and failed the class. While Drax could not grasp temporal theory, he had worked out enough about the Blinovitch Limitation effect limiter to know its limitations and also to create an endless paradox from his third incarnations onwards to his thirteenth to possess the device and also commit numerous crimes with two or more of his future lives. | Drax showed great technological aptitude.

During his prison stay Drax picked up Brixton's local accent and idioms, which remained part of his speech patterns after he left Earth and resumed his travels. This cockney accent would last for a few regenerations, but by the twelfth would be gone. When Drax met [[K9 Mark II]] and marvelled at the "little tin dog", K9 noted Drax's silliness. Although Drax was not above criminal activity and weapons dealing for personal gain, he displayed a sense of what was morally right and bemoaned having to assist the Shadow in his schemes. The Doctor talked him round to joining him against the Shadow without much trouble.

Despite some differences, the incarnations of Drax seemed more amiable to one another compared to cases whenever the Doctors met. | Despite some differences, the incarnations of Drax seemed more amiable to one another compared to cases whenever the Doctors met. | ||
