'''Dalek Sec''' was a [[Dalek]] who had the ability to think beyond the capacity of any other Dalek as the leader of the [[Cult of Skaro]]. Following the [[Last Great Time War]] and [[Battle of Canary Wharf]], Sec believed that the Dalek race needed to evolve by combining their [[DNA]] with that of other alien races in order to survive and planned a [[Final Experiment]], which culminated in his assimilation of the human, [[Diagoras|Mr Diagoras]]. | |||
Dalek Sec's assimilation of a human allowed him to experience human [[emotion]]s which, along with his vast [[wisdom]], resulted in his transformation from a cold, ruthless strategist to a merciful pacifist. Due to this change in personality, his fellow Daleks unfortunately went from obeying him without question, to actively rebelling against him for going against their race's racial purity doctrines, leading to his [[extermination]]. Upon watching the Cult kill the Dalek that had dared to think beyond its conditioning, the [[Tenth Doctor]] declared Sec to have been "the cleverest Dalek ever" and mourned his death. | |||

Dalek Sec was a Dalek who had the ability to think beyond the capacity of any other Dalek as the leader of the Cult of Skaro. Following the Last Great Time War and Battle of Canary Wharf, Sec believed that the Dalek race needed to evolve by combining their DNA with that of other alien races in order to survive and planned a Final Experiment, which culminated in his assimilation of the human, Mr Diagoras.
Dalek Sec's assimilation of a human allowed him to experience human emotions which, along with his vast wisdom, resulted in his transformation from a cold, ruthless strategist to a merciful pacifist. Due to this change in personality, his fellow Daleks unfortunately went from obeying him without question, to actively rebelling against him for going against their race's racial purity doctrines, leading to his extermination. Upon watching the Cult kill the Dalek that had dared to think beyond its conditioning, the Tenth Doctor declared Sec to have been "the cleverest Dalek ever" and mourned his death.

During the Last Great Time War, the Cult managed to escape the carnage by hiding between realities in a Void ship. (TV: Doomsday [+]Loading...["Doomsday (TV story)"])
The Battle of Canary Wharf[[edit] | [edit source]]
Emerging from the Void Ship along with the Genesis Ark, a Time Lord prison ship, Sec served as Dalek commander during the Battle of Canary Wharf against the Cybermen. He and the other Daleks seemed unfazed by the Cybermen's invasion, stating, "This is not war — this is pest control!" The Cult of Skaro opened the roof of Torchwood Tower and ascended to a space where the Genesis Ark could open.
Sec and the rest of the Cult of Skaro released an army of Daleks from the Genesis Ark, which started to fight the humans and the Cybermen present at the battle and in the streets below. The Tenth Doctor was able to open the void which caused the Daleks, the Cybermen and everything else which had travelled through the void to be pulled into it. Instead, Sec and the Cult initiated an emergency temporal shift and vanished before they were sucked into the void. (TV: Doomsday [+]Loading...["Doomsday (TV story)"])

Death[[edit] | [edit source]]
The other Daleks came to view Sec's beliefs as heresy, however, and were repulsed by his decision to combine his DNA with that of a human as they no longer saw him as the pure-blooded Dalek that they'd previously served.

The Visual Dictionary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The non-narrative source Doctor Who: The Visual Dictionary gave further information about Dalek Sec.
His human emotions are caused from merging with Diagoras' human brain. His six tentacles (three either side of his face) are from merging. He gained dexterous fingers, and due to more-exposed-than-human flesh, this makes him weaker to attack.
Following the Final experiment, Dalek Sec's armour and weapons were disposed of as they no longer served any purpose.

- A promotional image of Dalek Sec is used to represent the BBC Radio 7 audio story Dalek, I Love You and its sequel Dalek, I Love You Too.
- A promotional still image from Doomsday, featuring the Cult of Skaro and the Genesis Ark, is used to depict Dalek invaders on a copy of the newspaper Daily Times in GAME: City of the Daleks. However, the invaders in the game itself are shown to be red Drone Daleks of the New Dalek Paradigm.
