N - NAVIGATOR - what’s their sense of direction like? do they have a set path in life that they’re planning on following? what do they do if they’re knocked off course? (for Drax)
Spatially, he has a good sense of direction. Unless a place is really confusing, it’s hard for him to get lost.
However, he lacks a set path in life. As a human he was just getting his life on track and settled with his family when Thanos killed him, and then he spent several decades in space following someone else’s orders, and then Moondragon scrambled his brains, and he did his stint watching Alf and being in the Infinity Watch, and now...now, finally, he has a chance to try and get his life back on track. Not just because he’s intelligent again, but he also isn’t wholly driven by the programming the Kronos brought him back to life with (see more here).
So right now his vague life path is...do something good and help his daughter. Quill has given him a chance to do something better by being part of the Guardians so he’s sticking to that for. As for knocked off course, well he has been several times, he finds his way back eventually. If anything, Drax is tenacious, and he’s very good at admitting his mistakes and trying to do better.
