Braxiatel Collection

The Braxiatel Collection was located on asteroid KS-159. Irving Braxiatel won KS-159 as part of the winnings in a card game. He did so partly because he wished to investigate the Oracle of the Lost, but then decided to use it as a site for his collection. (PROSE: Tears of the Oracle)

Braxiatel had been building a collection of many items prior to the destruction of Dellah. (PROSE: Where Angels Fear) He had much of it in storage X One Nine in a series of large warehouses, one of which held a secret apartment. He built gravity generators and set up KS-159 as the Braxiatel Collection towards the end of the 26th century. (PROSE: Tears of the Oracle) Notable members of the staff include Bernice Summerfield, Adrian Wall, Clarissa Jones and Mr Crofton.

Romana suggested that the collection was better than the Louvre, but the Fourth Doctor disagreed. (TV: City of Death)

The Rat and Pestle was a pub on the Collection. (PROSE: The Infernal Nexus) Café Vosta was a shop on the Collection. (PROSE: Misplaced Spring) The Agamemnon was a bar located near the library. (PROSE: The Blame of the Nose)

Invasion of the Braxiatel Collection
The Braxiatel Collection was attacked and invaded by the Fifth Axis, assisted behind the scenes by the Daleks. (AUDIO: Death and the Daleks) Following this incident (which should never have occured) Braxiatel set about ensuring the Collection would be safe, secretly recruiting an army of Cybermen for this purpose. However he was forced to depart the Collection following a series of events involving (among other things) his manipulation and attempted murder of Jason Kane. (AUDIO: The Crystal of Cantus)

Braxiatel's Absence
During Braxiatel's absence from the Collection, Bev Tarrant stepped forwards to be the collection's director. (PROSE: Collected Works) For unknown reasons Braxiatel had linked his TARDIS to the Collection, and the machine was malfunctioning in his absence. (PROSE: Collected Works) ﻿Following a series of unusual events and the aggressive policies of several alien species (AUDIO: Summer of Love) Bernice Summerfield brought Braxiatel back to solve the affair. (AUDIO: The Tub Full of Cats)

Within a day of his return Bev Tarrant was ousted by the Draconian Ambassador Kothar. (AUDIO: The Judas Gift) Although not officially in charge, Braxiatel returned to a position of authority. (AUDIO: Freedom of Information) Due to the death of Jason Kane and suspicions of Braxiatel's motives, Bernice took her son Peter and fled the Collection (and Braxiatel). (AUDIO: The Wake)
