By X492, the numerous planets ruined in Drakken's wake had earned him a spot among the Oración Seis Galáctica, while his tendency to brutally retaliate against those who defied him solidified his reputation as the "Dark Alchemist", the most powerful and evil figure in the Sakura Cosmos's criminal underworld. At another point, a tech employee from Drakken's company, Spider, became fixated on Drakken after receiving a passing compliment from him for repairing his computer, which Drakken promptly forgot.

Sometime prior to the year X477, Kurenai Kōgetsu became one of Drakken's debtors, and was forced by him to pay off her debt through a certain line of work that utilized her beauty. ĭrakken Joe as one of the Oración Seis Galactica

Shortly afterward, Drakken moved his business away from Norma and found greater success as a loan shark on the beautiful tourist planet Guilst, which fell into a state of complete depravity under his influence. Upon discovering the theft, Drakken had Weisz's right arm amputated as punishment, which left a profound impact on Weisz and inspired him to abandon his life of crime. Following a falling out with Sibir, Weisz unknowingly stole a briefcase containing money that belonged to Drakken, mistaking it for Sibir's. By X442, Drakken served as the fixer for countless small-time gangs on Norma, including the one run by Weisz's friend, Sibir. īy X432, Drakken became a prominent figure on Norma under the alias "DJ Zombie", causing the deaths of dozens of people-including Weisz Steiner's mother-over the next ten years with his device, although none could point to him as the cause. In time, people became so unnerved by Drakken's unchanging age that he gained the moniker "Drakken Joe Zombie". Eventually, Drakken succeeded in acquiring a life-support device with such a function, extending his life for centuries however, he became disillusioned with his childhood desire for friendship, and instead became purely obsessed with power and survival. After being shunned by the other children for this line of thought, Drakken discovered a book about alchemy that inspired him to convert others' life force into his own, eventually learning the Alchemist form of Ether Gear. During his childhood, Drakken learned about humans from other planets that could live for decades, which led him to question the purpose of his short lifespan and, ultimately, desire to grow into adulthood and make new friends. Sadly, his obsession with living and transformation into an Ether Gear user corrupted him and he soon became little more then a coward desperately looking for immortality.ĭrakken Joe was born prior to X292 on a planet where humans were bred as experimental guinea pigs with a maximum lifespan of 15 years. However, Drakken was not always like this, as a child, he was kindhearted person who just wanted to make friends, much like how Shiki does, but could not do due his short lifespan and isolation. Drakken Joe can be quite sadistic at times, such as ordering Fie to cut off Weisz Steiner's arm and laughing as he screamed in pain. One thing Joe cannot stand is his reputation being dragged through the mud, as he makes his living off of it, and doing so enrages him to the point where he had Seth kill Spider on the spot for using it after he lost to the Crew of Edens. Joe seems to be somewhat forgetful as he did not remember who Spider was despite telling him that they were brothers after he fixed his computer in the past. However, he is willing to let a person who can not pay him back live, solely so he can force them to earn more money for him by doing grueling types of jobs. Joe has shown that he will go as far as torturing and maiming someone for not returning the money he has loaned to them. He believes money is the most important thing in the cosmos and is only interested in making more of it at the expense of the people who are debt slaves to him. Drakken Joe is shown to be a violent and greedy person.
