| The '''New Dalek Paradigm''' was a new breed of [[Dalek]]s created by impure survivors.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Overview==
| | One [[Dalek Saucer]] and three Daleks survived from a previous invasion and genocide by escaping through a [[time corridor]]. They ended up back in time in [[1941]]. They found the last surviving [[progenitor]], a Time War device containing pure Dalek DNA and the means to recreate the species - but, due to the circumstances of their creation, the progenitor refused to recognise them as Dalek due to their differing genes. In order to activate it, they engineered an encounter with the Doctor: using an [[Edwin Bracewell|android]] to claim they were his invention and pretending to be machines for the [[British Army]]. When the Doctor arrived (after being called by [[Winston Churchill]]), they tricked him into calling them out - "''I'' am the Doctor and ''you'' are the ''Daleks''!" - so this "testimony" could be used to open the progenitor. |
| ===Characteristics===
| | Five new Daleks were created, with pure DNA, a colour-coded rank, and a white Dalek Supreme as their commander. These Daleks immediately exterminated the older three for their impurity (the three willingly allowed this to happen) and were able to force the Doctor to let them escape, using a time bomb on Earth to prey upon his compassion and make him return to England/Britain. While the Doctor was deactivating the bomb, they escaped through a [[time corridor]] to create a new Dalek Empire. ([[DW]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks]]'') |

| ===Hierachy===
| |
| These Daleks operated under a simple hierachy, with five ranks. The Daleks of the New Dalek Paradigm were colour-coded. The [[Supreme Dalek (Progenitor)|Supreme Dalek]] was White, the [[Eternal Dalek]] was Yellow, [[Strategist Dalek]]s were Blue, [[Scientist Dalek]]s were Orange, and the [[Drone Dalek]]s were Red. The Supreme and Eternal Daleks were unique in that there was only one of them at a time. The Strategists rank controlled tactical planning and manoeuvering, coordinating the [[Standard Dalek|Drones]] during battle. The Scientists' role was to examine and formulate new weapons as well as to analyse the genetic and physiological make-up of their enemies so that their weaknesses could be isolated.

| ==History==
| |
| ===Origin===
| |
| The [[Last Great Time War]] left only small pockets of Dalek survivors, all of which were destroyed in confrontations with [[the Doctor]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'', ''[[Bad Wolf (TV story)|Bad Wolf]]''/''[[The Parting of the Ways]]'') ([[NSA]]: ''[[I am a Dalek]]'') [[DW]]: ''[[Army of Ghosts]]''/''[[Doomsday]]'') Yhis left [[Dalek Caan]] of the [[Cult of Skaro]] as the last Dalek in existence. ([[DW]]: ''[[Daleks in Manhattan]]''/''[[Evolution of the Daleks]]'') Caan travelled back to the Time War, breaking through the [[time-lock]] at the cost of his sanity. He saved [[Davros]] from the jaws of the [[Nightmare Child]] and brought him to [[2008]]. Davros rebuilt the Dalek race, growing them from his own cells. He created the [[Supreme One]], who considered Davros and Caan insane and locked them in the vault of the [[Crucible]]. Following Davros' plan, they teleported [[Stolen Planets|27 planets]] -- including the Earth -- from all over space and time into the [[Medusa Cascade]], one second out of sync with the rest of the universe, where [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] and the [[Shadow Proclamation]] couldn't find them. Davros planned to align them and use their energy, combined with the [[Crucible energy core]], to create a [[Reality bomb]] that would destroy existence. The Daleks went down to Earth and arrested the humans, killing renegades.
| |
| | |
| Using the [[Tandocca Scale]], the Tenth Doctor and [[Donna Noble]] found Earth. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'') Banding together the [[Children of Time]] (the Doctor, Donna, Rose, Martha, Jack, the [[Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor]], Mickey and [[Sarah Jane Smith]]), the Doctor went to the Crucible to stop Davros, Caan and the Supreme One. Eventually, Caan, betraying the Daleks, lowered the defences, allowing the Meta-Crisis Doctor to destroy the Crucible, Caan, Davros, the Supreme One and the Daleks. Engulfed in flame, Davros named the Doctor the Destroyer of Worlds. ([[DW]]: ''[[Journey's End]]'') However one Dalek ship with three Daleks onboard managed to perform a time jump back to [[1941]], escaping destruction. ([[DW]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks]]'')
| |
| | |
| ===Creation===
| |
| The three Daleks found the last surviving [[progenitor]], a Time War device containing pure Dalek DNA and the means to recreate the species. However, due to the circumstances of their creation, the progenitor refused to recognize them as Dalek, as they had been created from Davros's own mutated Kaled cells ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]''). In order to activate it, they engineered an encounter with the [[Eleventh Doctor]]: using an [[Edwin Bracewell|android]] to claim they were his invention and pretending to be [[Ironside|machines]] for the [[British Army]]. When the Doctor arrived (after receiving a telephone call from [[Winston Churchill]]), they tricked him into calling them out - "''I'' am the Doctor and ''you'' are the ''Daleks''!" - so this "testimony" could be used to open the progenitor.
| |
| | |
| Five new Daleks were created, with pure DNA, a colour-coded rank, and a [[Supreme Dalek (Progenitor)|white Dalek Supreme]] as their commander. There was also a [[Strategist Dalek|Blue (Strategist)]], [[Scientist Dalek|Orange (Scientist)]], [[Eternal Dalek|Yellow (Eternal)]] and [[Standard Dalek|Red (Drone)]]. These Daleks immediately exterminated the older three for their impurity (the three willingly allowed this to happen) and were able to force the Doctor to let them escape, using a bomb hidden within the Bracewell android on Earth to prey upon his compassion and make him return to Britain. While the Doctor was deactivating the bomb, they escaped through a [[time corridor]] to create a new Dalek Empire. ([[DW]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks]]'') | |
| | |
| ===Empire-building===
| |
| Following their escape, the Daleks discovered the lost [[Time Lord]] artefact, the Eye of Time, allowing them to alter time as they saw fit. The Daleks returned to [[Skaro]], rebuilt their capital city of [[Kaalann]], appointed a new [[Dalek Emperor]] and begun rebuilding their Empire. One of the Daleks' first acts with their new found power over time was to invade [[London]], [[Earth]] in [[1963]]. In this new timeline, they succeeded in killing every member of the [[human]] race. However, the Eleventh Doctor and Amy successfully undid these events, leaving Earth unconquered and Kaalann still abandoned. ([[VG]]: ''[[City of the Daleks]]'')

| | |
| In the [[41st century]], the Daleks began another war with humanity. The Eleventh Doctor and [[Amy Pond|Amy]] encountered one group who had been sent on a mission to find a Dalek mutant which was being experimented on by a scientist who tried to make them less aggressive creatures. The Daleks refered to this mutant as [[ Abomination|"the Abomination"]]. They attacked and destroyed Earth's top secret space station, [[Station 7]], and chased the survivors to the planet below. After slaughtering all resistance, they finally found the Abomination in a hidden base, but it was able to escape its container and disable the base reactor's safety measures. A tremendous explosion destroyed the base, the Daleks, the Abonimation, and all the Dalek ships that had landed on the planet. The Doctor, Amy and [[Jay Bourne|Jay]], an [[Space Security Service|SSS]] officer, watched from a safe distance. The Dalek mission was a failure but the war continued. They had agents working in the SSS. ([[GN]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek]]'')

| | |
| Later, the Daleks joined [[The Alliance]] formed to imprison the Eleventh Doctor in the [[Pandorica]] in order to save the [[Universe]], they arrived at [[Stonehenge]], 102 A.D. along with the rest of the Alliance and locked the Doctor in the Pandorica. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'') The Daleks, along with almost the rest of the universe, were destroyed, leaving only two [[Stone Dalek]]s, one of which hindered the Doctor and his companions' efforts to save the universe. Nevertheless, they were successful and the whole of reality, including the Daleks, were restored. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Big Bang]]'')
| |
| | |
| The Daleks later planted an idea into the mind of [[Vorgenson]], the son of the [[Lurman]] [[Vorg]] who had invented a machine called the [[Miniscope]], encountered by the [[Third Doctor]]. Vorgenson's idea had him create his own machine, called the Minimiser. He used it to headline a travelling show dedicated to the Doctor. It featured many mind-controlled versions of his recently encountered enemies, apart from the Daleks themselves, which Vorgenson dismissed as "too dangerous". The Daleks' plan was to attract the Eleventh Doctor to the show with Vorgenson's monsters, and capture him in the Minimiser. This plan succeeded but the audience managed to save the Doctor, and helped him to release the [[Cybermen (Pete's World)|Cybermen]] from the Minimiser to destroy the Daleks. ([[SP]]: ''[[Doctor Who: The Monsters Are Coming!|The Monsters Are Coming!]]'')

| | |
| A Scientist Dalek sent an alien family plummeting through time and space to collect all the [[Time Orb]]s. The Scientist recruited many [[Strategist Dalek|Strategist]] Daleks and [[Drone Dalek|Drones]]. It also recruited big armies of [[Cybermen]] and [[Silurian]]s as a distraction for the [[Eleventh Doctor]] and [[Amy Pond|Amy]]. ([[VG]]: ''[[The Mazes of Time]]'')

| ==Behind the scenes==
| |
| *The [[2010]] redesign of the Daleks attracted criticism from some angered fans. <ref>http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/2937261/Redesigned-Daleks-look-like-toys-say-angry-Doctor-Who-fans.html</ref> [[Mark Gatiss]], who wrote their [[Victory of the Daleks|debut episode]], acknowledged the controversial nature of this redesign in his [[in-vision commentary]] on the DVD box set. In conversation with principal Dalek voice artist [[Nicholas Briggs]], and [[Dalek operator]] [[Barnaby Edwards (actor)|Barnaby Edwards]], he opined that the new shape of the Daleks, especially in the dorsal region, was not particularly to his liking. Briggs agreed, but, with Edwards, swiftly noted that in their experience of taking the new Daleks on live exhibition to the public, [[British]] kids universally loved the new design. The decision was revisited in [[DWM 431]] with critics voicing their opinions on the design. A comparison was made with the [[Russell T Davies|RTD]]-era Daleks but no conclusion as to which was the better was made.
