Androvar Drake was a Starfleet officer during the 23rd century.
Drake attended Starfleet Academy at the same time as James T. Kirk, where the two of them became rivals, and both served on the USS Farragut together.
Like Kirk, Drake became Captain of a Constitution class starship and was also assigned to a five-year exploratory mission in 2265.
In 2267, when war broke out between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, two Klingon battlecruisers destroyed a Starfleet hospital ship, claiming that it was on a spying mission. Drake's wife was one of the passengers killed. Drake pursued the ships and managed to destroy one of them. When the Organians put an end to the war, Drake blamed Kirk for getting them involved and preventing him from getting his revenge.
After Drake's mission ended around 2270, he was promoted to Admiral and was assigned as a deputy chief in Security Services. He was eventually placed in charge of Starfleet's advanced strategic weapons research and development programs, one of which was a feasibility study for developing protomatter weapons. When the program was abandoned over Drake's objections, he was placed in charge of storing the protomatter until a safe way of disposing of it could be found.
In 2284, Drake secretly provided protomatter to David Marcus, who was working on Project Genesis and impatient for results. This allowed Drake to test the use of protomatter as a potential weapon by proxy, as well as potentially gain revenge on Kirk.
In 2293, Drake was a member of Admiral Cartwright's conspiracy to prevent peace between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. After Cartwright was exposed, Drake was named Commander-in-Chief of the Federation Starfleet. With his daughter Ariadne, he manipulated Teilani to learn the location of Chal and gain its military and scientific secrets. Drake was killed when he attacked Chal...though not before he successfully blew up Kirk's ship, the U.S.S. Enterprise ''NCC-1701-A''(TOS novel and graphic novel: The Ashes of Eden)
