Yes, very, very, quickly. The Starter Motor has a very high operating current, that will drain even the heaviest duty battery, fairly quickly, if an engine fails to start.
Your starter is incapable of being drained. It is an electric motor. However a bad starter can drain your battery
I have heard the alternator does it,cold drains the battery too,if it's not started for awhile can kill it.
No, a bad coil will not drain the battery.
Yes, a starter solenoid can drain a battery. When a starter solenoid is not working properly it can actually keep rotating the starter after the car's ignition is turned off. Since it requires a battery to actuate the starter, the battery will eventually be drained of power.
bad starter or bad connection to starter or bad ground on battery or starter
Could be the battery is drained or bad. Could be battery connections at battery and or starter are dirty and or loose. Could be starter solenoid is bad. Could be starter is bad.
Yes, but only when you have the starter engaged
A starter does drain a battery. The battery holds a charge so that you can use your starter to start the car. After the car is started the alternator recharges your battery and runs your car and all it's accessories. If your car won't start or is having a hard time starting you can drain your battery by repeated unsuccessful attempts to start it.
My suggestion is to make sure that you have a good connection between your starter and your battery. Is the starter even functioning? If not, it is probably a bad starter, a bad battery, a bad fusible link for the starter, a blown fuse, or just a bad connection.

Anything that is on and uses electricity. You may also have a dead cell in the battery which will drain the battery.
If you have a starter that spins but doesn't engage the engine and a battery that is always dead then I would look closer at the starter then the regulator. The regulator is part of the charging system but if the rectifier is bad then it might be possible for the battery to drain flowing backwards through the charging system but highly unlikely although possible. As for it to stop the starter from engaging the engine, that is not possible.
The starter could be bad. Or the battery. The starter could be bad. Or the battery.
