History: Dr. Drew Lipski was a college friend of Dr. James Possible, though after an aborted attempt at building robot girlfriends for himself and his friends their friendship was soured; Lipski then transferred to another school. It is believed they were graduate students at the time.
Both Lipski and Possible were later forcibly recruited by HYDRA and AIM to work on various projects for them on HYDRA's private artificial island. Lipski's own projects were unrevealed, but he has said to have done an autopsy on a blue-skinned alien (presumably one of the Kree) either during his captivity or prior to it for some unrevealed agency. They were rescued by the outlaw team known as the Shadowguard (who in the process ended up destroying HYDRA Island).
How Lipski became the criminal Dr. Drakken is unknown, but he is suspected of injecting himself with DNA from the alien he autopsied, in the form of an RNA retrovirus. It's also believed that the injection process was untested and unauthorized, as it turned his skin blue and addled his mind.
Drakken first came into contact with teen hero Kim Possible (ironically the daughter of his college friend) during an a scheme to use an explosive micro-bot to force people to do his bidding under the threat of blowing their heads off. Some time prior to this he had enlisted the services of the criminal mercenary Shego; Shego has been both his ally and his voice of sanity. Drakken and Possible have been arch-nemeses ever since.
During an apparent alien invasion (two alien warriors and their horde of giant robot walkers), Drakken assisted Possible in saving the world through the use of fast-growing mutated plants which obeyed his commands. Although hailed as a hero because of his actions, after a year of laying low he returned to his acts of villainy. (He's justified his actions in saving the world as "eliminating the competition".) Since returning to action, he has been slightly more focused on removing Possible from his way than ever before.

Drakken is obsessed with two things: Taking over the world, and destroying his arch-nemesis Kim Possible. He feels he cannot succeed at the former until he's succeeded at the latter. However, most of his plans are overly complex at best, to the point of being unnecessarily convoluted. He usually requires someone else, typically Shego, to keep him on track. He is rather prone to taking shortcuts, stealing others' technologies rather than developing them himself. He has a fascination with clones for some unexplained reason.
Drakken can be made more dangerous by increasing his skills and removing a few of his more comical Quirks. Even so, he is not a combatant, preferring to leave the combat to Shego and his henchmen.
