An embryo was an early stage of a life form's development.
Dalek mutant embryos[[edit] | [edit source]]
Dalek mutants created by Davros began life as embryos. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)"])
During the era in which the Daleks were confined to the Dalek City, new embryos were grown in a subterranean level. (AUDIO: Return to Skaro [+]Loading...["Return to Skaro (audio story)"]) After the Thal-Dalek battle had knocked out the city's main power, (TV: The Daleks [+]Loading...["The Daleks (TV story)"]) autonomic protocols sealed off the incubation level and placed the embryos in suspended animation until power was restored to the city. Spending decades in such a state allowed the new generation of Daleks to overcome their dependance on radiation. (AUDIO: Return to Skaro [+]Loading...["Return to Skaro (audio story)"])
The Imperial Daleks gestated their embryos in a creche aboard their mothership. The embryos were fed a diet of nutrients while listening to indoctrination tapes. (PROSE: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (novelisation)"])
During the Last Great Time War, new embryos were grown by harvesting superfluous body parts, such as an intact second eye, from fully grown Dalek mutants. (PROSE: Dalek [+]Loading...["Dalek (novelisation)"]) When on Moldox, the War Doctor sabotaged the cooling system of the Eternity Circle's cloning complex, killing the gestating embryos. (PROSE: Engines of War [+]Loading...["Engines of War (novel)"])
Following the conflict, the Cult of Skaro attempted to grow new Dalek embryos but their creations proved non-viable, the Cult leaving them in the sewers between New York City to die.

Embryos of other life forms[[edit] | [edit source]]
On Wengrol, Fomal gave the First Doctor a case of one hundred un-mutated Yend embryos to take to another planet. Unfortunately, all the embryos died the moment he entered the Time Vortex. (PROSE: The Sons of the Crab [+]Loading...["The Sons of the Crab (short story)"])
The First Rani kept a Tyrannosaurus rex embryo in her TARDIS. Time spillage caused it to rapidly mature. (TV: The Mark of the Rani [+]Loading...["The Mark of the Rani (TV story)"])
