Some time after the Daleks recovered from the resulting [[Dalek Civil War]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'') a [[Dalek Supreme (Planet of the Daleks)|Dalek Supreme]] with a [[gold]] and black casing was identified as "one of the Supreme Council". ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks]]'')
The '''Dalek Council''', also known as the '''Supreme Council''' ([[TV]]: {{cs|Planet of the Daleks (TV story)}}) or the '''High Council of Daleks''', ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Aliens and Enemies (reference book)}}), was the governing body of the [[Dalek Empire]] and was based on [[Skaro]] under the [[Dalek Emperor]], serving as their [[advisor]]s. It was made up of the [[Dalek Empire]]'s [[Supreme Dalek]]s, who were designated '''Supreme Councillors'''.


In an [[alternate timeline]] where the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] conquered Earth in [[1963]], the [[Supreme Council Chamber]]s were located in [[Kaalann]]. ([[GAME]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (video game)|City of the Daleks]]'')

Debate had emerged at the time of the publication of ''[[The Dalek Survival Guide]]'' as to whether every member of the Dalek Council held the title of Dalek Supreme, or an equivalent title like "[[Supreme Controller]]", or if only a singular Dalek held the position as the [[Emperor Dalek]]'s [[second-in-command]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Survival Guide (novel)|Dalek Survival Guide]]'')


In a later stage of the New Dalek Paradigm's history, the Dalek Council appeared to have been replaced by the [[Parliament of the Daleks]], led by the [[Dalek Prime Minister]], then the [[Supreme Dalek (New Dalek Paradigm)|Supreme Dalek]] below him, along with one [[Strategist Dalek]], hundreds of Officer class [[Drone Dalek]]s, and Thousands of drones of a design resembling those from the [[Last Great Time War]].

==== Dalek Wars ====
[[File:Supreme Eyestalk Lamp.jpg|thumb|The Dalek Supreme on Spiridon. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'')]]
On the eve of the [[Second Dalek War]] of the [[26th century]], a [[Gold Dalek (Day of the Daleks)|Gold Dalek]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Frontier in Space (TV story)|Frontier in Space]]'') belonging to the Supreme Council ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'') led a platoon of Daleks to meet {{Delgado}} on the [[Ogron planet|Ogron homeworld]]. There, it ordered the Master's captives — including the Third Doctor, [[Jo Grant]], [[General]] [[John Williams]] and the [[Draconian]] [[Draconian prince|Prince]] — [[Death sentence|exterminated]]. However, the Master convinced the Daleks to leave the prisoners under his supervision until the Daleks' planned war began, to which the Daleks agreed and left the planet. ([[TV]]: ''[[Frontier in Space (TV story)|Frontier in Space]]'')
 
This allowed the Doctor to foil the Daleks' plans on [[Spiridon]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'') resulting in the loss of the Dalek Supreme there and leading the remorseful Gold Dalek to organise a large-scale [[time travel]] mission to rectify its mistake, taking control of [[Earth]] in the [[22nd century]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'') This timeline was negated by an earlier version of the Third Doctor, leading to the destruction of the Gold Dalek by [[Shura]] at the [[Auderly House]] using a [[Dalekanium bomb]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Day of the Daleks (TV story)|Day of the Daleks]]'') The [[Time Lord]]s believed this Dalek to be a subordinate "outpost commander" who deputised for the Dalek Supreme. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'')
 
According to [[human]] [[historian]]s, after the failure of the [[Exxilon Gambit]], the Supreme Council decided that the time for discretion had ended and launched a [[Dalek invasion of the galaxy]], knowing that the galaxy was still reeling from the Daleks' [[space plague]] and any further delay would give them time to recover. The historians' research eventually led them to conclude that the Supreme Council had called off the war after the [[Good Dalek Incident]], fearing that [[Rusty (Into the Dalek)|Rusty]]'s hatred for the Daleks could spread to other units. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'')
 
The Supreme Council dwindled down more and over over the course of the [[Dalek Wars]], until it was whittled down to a singular [[Black Dalek Leader|Supreme Dalek]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'') who orchestrated the Daleks' master plan on [[Kembel]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]'') Other accounts claimed that the death of this Dalek Supreme on Kembel predated the [[Dalek Civil War]].

[[File:The Archive of Islos.jpg|thumb|left|The [[Emperor of the Restoration]] amid its [[Restoration Empire|empire]] ([[WC]]: ''[[The Archive of Islos (webcast)|The Archive of Islos]]'')]]
When the [[Movellan War]] ended in defeat for the Daleks, the [[Dalek Prime]] and his Supreme Council retreated back to [[Skaro]]. By one account, the [[Black Dalek Leader]] knew that there was talk of overthrowing the Council and reforming the [[Dalek hierarchy|Dalek power scheme]] since the disastrous losses of the Movellan War. Acting on behalf of the Dalek Prime, the Black Dalek and the Supreme Council presided over the [[Davros's trial (Revelation of the Daleks)|trial]] of [[Davros]], who had been [[Necros Incident|captured]] on [[Necros]]. At this time, there were some within the Dalek ranks, even within the Supreme Council, who felt that Davros could help the Daleks. The Black Dalek, however, anticipated that a rescue attempt would be made by "[[traitor]]s" and saw that it was foiled, with Davros being seemingly executed by a [[matter transmitter]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The History of the Daleks (short story)|The History of the Daleks]]'')
 
The Supreme Council existed as part of the [[Imperial Dalek]] side of the [[Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War]].

You may be looking for Galactic Council.

The Dalek Council, also known as the Supreme Council (TV: Planet of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Planet of the Daleks (TV story)"]) or the High Council of Daleks, (PROSE: Aliens and Enemies [+]Loading...["Aliens and Enemies (reference book)"]), was the governing body of the Dalek Empire and was based on Skaro under the Dalek Emperor, serving as their advisors. It was made up of the Dalek Empire's Supreme Daleks, who were designated Supreme Councillors.

Structure[[edit] | [edit source]]

Debate had emerged at the time of the publication of The Dalek Survival Guide as to whether every member of the Dalek Council held the title of Dalek Supreme, or an equivalent title like "Supreme Controller", or if only a singular Dalek held the position as the Emperor Dalek's second-in-command. (PROSE: Dalek Survival Guide)

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

Pre-Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]

Early history[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Black Supreme Dalek. (TV: The Chase)

The Supreme Dalek leading the 2150s Dalek invasion of Earth was a member of the High Council of Daleks. (PROSE: Aliens and Enemies)

According to one account of the Dalek invasion of the galaxy, the Supreme Council, upon learning of the existence of the Dalek known as "Rusty", halted the war effort out of fear that his hatred for the Daleks could spread to other units, causing an existential crisis in Dalek High Command. When they eventually confirmed that it could not, they found his hatred too beautiful to extinguish and banished him to the Dalek Asylum. (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe)

It seemed to have survived and was present when the Daleks tried to win the Great War. The Dalek Emperor and the Supreme Council determined that the Dalek Factor had to be researched so they could recondition humans with Dalek mentality throughout their history, potentially preventing the wars from ever happening. A Red Dalek acted as an emissary for the Council, overlooking the experiment being carried out by the blackmailed Second Doctor on Earth in 1866. (PROSE: The Evil of the Daleks)

Some time after the Daleks recovered from the resulting Dalek Civil War, (TV: The Evil of the Daleks) a Dalek Supreme with a gold-and-black casing was identified as "one of the Supreme Council". (TV: Planet of the Daleks) By one account, this Dalek Supreme was the head of the Supreme Council and the Emperor's second-in-command. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Planet of the Daleks)

Dalek Wars[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Dalek Supreme on Spiridon. (TV: Planet of the Daleks)

On the eve of the Second Dalek War of the 26th century, a Gold Dalek (TV: Frontier in Space) belonging to the Supreme Council (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) led a platoon of Daleks to meet the Master on the Ogron homeworld. There, it ordered the Master's captives — including the Third Doctor, Jo Grant, General John Williams and the Draconian Princeexterminated. However, the Master convinced the Daleks to leave the prisoners under his supervision until the Daleks' planned war began, to which the Daleks agreed and left the planet. (TV: Frontier in Space)

This allowed the Doctor to foil the Daleks' plans on Spiridon, (TV: Planet of the Daleks) resulting in the loss of the Dalek Supreme there and leading the remorseful Gold Dalek to organise a large-scale time travel mission to rectify its mistake, taking control of Earth in the 22nd century. (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) This timeline was negated by an earlier version of the Third Doctor, leading to the destruction of the Gold Dalek by Shura at the Auderly House using a Dalekanium bomb. (TV: Day of the Daleks) The Time Lords believed this Dalek to be a subordinate "outpost commander" who deputised for the Dalek Supreme. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual)

According to human historians, after the failure of the Exxilon Gambit, the Supreme Council decided that the time for discretion had ended and launched a Dalek invasion of the galaxy, knowing that the galaxy was still reeling from the Daleks' space plague and any further delay would give them time to recover. The historians' research eventually led them to conclude that the Supreme Council had called off the war after the Good Dalek Incident, fearing that Rusty's hatred for the Daleks could spread to other units. (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe)

The Supreme Council dwindled down more and over over the course of the Dalek Wars, until it was whittled down to a singular Supreme Dalek (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) who orchestrated the Daleks' master plan on Kembel. (TV: The Daleks' Master Plan) Other accounts claimed that the death of this Dalek Supreme on Kembel predated the Dalek Civil War. (PROSE: The Evil of the Daleks)

Civil War and beyond[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the Movellan War ended in defeat for the Daleks, the Dalek Prime and his Supreme Council retreated back to Skaro. By one account, the Black Dalek Leader knew that there was talk of overthrowing the Council and reforming the Dalek power scheme since the disastrous losses of the Movellan War. Acting on behalf of the Dalek Prime, the Black Dalek and the Supreme Council presided over the trial of Davros, who had been captured on Necros. At this time, there were some within the Dalek ranks, even within the Supreme Council, who felt that Davros could help the Daleks. The Black Dalek, however, anticipated that a rescue attempt would be made by "traitors" and saw that it was foiled, with Davros being seemingly executed by a matter transmitter. (PROSE: The History of the Daleks)

The Supreme Council existed as part of the Imperial Dalek side of the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War. According to one account, at the end of the Civil War, Davros deserted his creations. This led to one member of the Council exterminating the other Supreme Daleks (PROSE: The Restoration Empire) and declaring itself the new Dalek Emperor of a once-again united Dalek race, (PROSE: The Restoration Empire, The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) which then fought in the Last Great Time War under his command. (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe, TV: The Parting of the Ways) According to other accounts, the Emperor of the Daleks who led the Empire during the War and was ultimately obliterated by the Bad Wolf entity (TV: The Parting of the Ways) was in fact the leader of the Renegade Daleks, resurrected long after the end of the Civil War. (AUDIO: Restoration of the Daleks)

Post-Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]

The first five Daleks of the New Paradigm, (TV: Victory of the Daleks) who would form a new Supreme Council. (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe)

At its onset, the five original members of the New Dalek Paradigm reorganised themselves into a new Supreme Council, led by the first Supreme Dalek, supported by the mysterious Eternal Dalek. The Strategist and Scientist respectively oversaw strategic and scientific endeavours, whilst the first Drone Dalek assumed command of the new Dalek Imperial Army. (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) After acquiring the Eye of Time, the Supreme Council installed a new Emperor Dalek on a repopulated Skaro before launching an assault on time starting with Earth. However, the existence of this Emperor was erased when the Eleventh Doctor retrieved the Eye of Time. (GAME: City of the Daleks) Later, the Supreme Council ordered the Dalek Project to be plotted throughout the history of Earth before it was stopped in World War I by the Doctor. (PROSE: The Dalek Project)

Though they ruled for centuries, they were eventually demoted to a token presence in the new Parliament of the Daleks after their repeated losses to the Doctor. This reinvention of the Dalek Empire marked the end of Paradigm rule, instead creating the resurrected Dalek Empire. When the Prime Minister of the Daleks had gone insane after remembering the Doctor during the Siege of Trenzalore, the Dalek Supreme exterminated him, allowing it and its co-founders to resume control of the Paradigm until its fall. (PROSE: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe)

Alternate timelines[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Gold Dalek. (TV: Day of the Daleks)

In one alternate timeline in which the Daleks invaded Earth in the 22nd century after a series of devastating wars, the Gold Dalek, the Black Dalek and their aids formed the High Council of the Daleks in Earth Sector One. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Day of the Daleks)

In another alternate timeline where the New Dalek Paradigm conquered Earth in 1963, the Supreme Council Chambers were located in Kaalann. (GAME: City of the Daleks)
