( PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual) After this led to a centuries-long stalemate, ( TV: Destiny of the Daleks) the Daleks returned to their organic roots. ( TV: The Evil of the Daleks)ĭuring the Dalek-Movellan War, the Daleks, to better understand the Movellans, briefly reengineered themselves into "quasi-robotic" creatures, dispensing entirely with organic matter. ( TV: The Power of the Daleks) Theodore Maxtible's attempts to involve static electricity in his experimental time travel resulted in his time machine prototype summoning Daleks across time. The Daleks had a strong association with static electricity not only were their casings powered by it at some points in their history, ( TV: The Daleks, The Dalek Invasion of Earth) but newly-bred Kaled mutants were brought to life by a static shock before they were put into their casings, and the Second Doctor once explained that static "was like blood to the Daleks". ( TV: The Witch's Familiar) One Dalek creature remained alive even as it was dissected by the scientist Bryant Anderson. Incapable of steering their armour, such decayed Daleks would exit them and confine themselves to the sewers of Dalek cities, for which reason the Dalek word for "sewer" was also their word for " graveyard". ( TV: Resolution) However, they did age, the body decaying further and further - eventually reaching a point where it was little more than mewling, hateful sludge of dark brownish colour. ( TV: Twice Upon a Time)ĭaleks did not die naturally, every cell being genetically hardwired with an impulse to keep on living, ( TV: The Witch's Familiar) even if they were chopped to pieces and left buried for centuries away from their casings. ( TV: The Daleks, Evolution of the Daleks) The Daleks transmitted information using a sort of artificial telepathic network known as the Pathweb, ( TV: Asylum of the Daleks) which the Twelfth Doctor would later state to be the "biggest database ". ( AUDIO: The Four Doctors) In this respect, they were somewhat similar to a Cyberman unlike them, however, the Daleks' bodies had mutated so drastically from their Kaled ancestors they had lost all humanoid appearance, save for one eye (see below). These were Mark III travel machines, designed to carry their mutant forms, and they were not truly integrated biomechanoids. 3.20.1 War with the Galactic ResistanceĪlthough the Daleks looked entirely robotic, they were, in fact, cyborgs, with a living body encased in and supported by an armed and mobile outer shell of Dalekanium and polycarbide protective metal armour.3.18 Alliance with the Master and Cybermen.3.13 Creation and destruction of the New Dalek Empire.3.9.1 The virus spreads, the schism begins.3.7.2 Conflict with the Space Security Service.3.6.4 Further strengthening of the Dalek Empire.( TV: Genesis of the Daleks) Their goal was to eradicate all non-Dalek life, ( TV: Victory of the Daleks) as programmed by their creator. ( TV: Asylum of the Daleks) Intensely xenophobic and bent on universal domination, the Daleks were hated and feared throughout time and space. The Daleks fought the Time Lords in the Last Great Time War, ending in the near-total destruction of the Dalek race, ( TV: Dalek) until they rebuilt and restored their empire. ( TV: The Chase) The Doctor described them likewise, ( COMIC: Defender of the Daleks, TV: Victory of the Daleks) and, in their tenth incarnation, stated that a Dalek was "not just metal, it alive," that "inside that shell, there a creature born to hate, whose only thought to destroy everything and everyone that a Dalek, too." ( TV: Daleks in Manhattan) The Tenth Doctor also noted that from birth, the Daleks were encased in a cold metal shell unable to feel anything, claiming that was why they "scream." ( TV: Doomsday) The War Doctor also said that Daleks were "not robots", but "savage, incredibly intelligent, living, breathing creatures housed inside a war tank".


On many occasions, the Daleks openly acknowledged a single Time Lord, the Doctor, as their greatest enemy. ( TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth, COMIC: The Humanoids) ( TV: The Daleks) The mutants were encased inside an armoured travel machine built from polycarbide ( TV: Remembrance of the Daleks) and the metal Dalekanium. ( TV: Daleks in Manhattan) By most accounts they were originally from the planet Skaro. The Daleks were a warrior race ( TV: The Witch's Familiar, Hell Bent) made up of genetically engineered mutants ( TV: The Daleks, Genesis of the Daleks) belonging to fundamental DNA type 467-989.
