Drax!!
Rufus T. Firefly
I'm reading an old Australian find-your-fate where you, the reader, team up
with K9 mk 3 and Drax on a search for the Sixth Doctor. (It's called,
incidentally, "Search for the Doctor.") Drax is your main companion for
much of it, and he's driving around in a pink cadillac convertible TARDIS.
Considering it's a fluffy kids' book, the character of Drax is unexpectedly
well-done.
Drax was cool, they should have used him more after the Armageddon Factor.
....did *anyone* else really really like this guy?

I thought he was ok. Very un-time lord like though. He had some potential and
it could've been interesting seeing him again. Maybe in a Master episode.

Not that surprising considering it was written by one of the writers
of Armageddon Factor. :)

They did. In Alien Bodies; he's Quixotl. It's never stated outright, but it
was the author's intention.

I've never seen Armageddon Factor, but I did think Qixotl fitted the
facts as Drax, mind you, Having said that, I do recall coming up with
the idea that Qixotl was in fact an older Turlough. I had some tortured
logic in justifying that which I don't actually remember but as I recall
it seemed cool at the time. It's a bit like everyone thinking the
Magistrate (InfiniDocs/TToP5) was the Master but I thought it'd be cool
if it turned out to be Irving Braxiatel (don't ask).

Do they ever get tired of bring back older versions of good charcters and
making them villians? They really should have stpped after doing it to the
Doctor himself in 1986.

different class than a Time Lord.
Question: Is everyone born on Gallifrey a Time Lord? The soldiers? The
maintenance crew? Or is Time Lord the ruling class? I got the impression
that Guards and Maintenance crew (like Drax) wouldn't be considered Time
Lords.
