Quasimodo Dalek
Quasimodo Dalek was the name the Eleventh Doctor used to identify a robotic Dalek constructed by a team of archaeologists in France. The Dalek was initially a drone of the New Dalek Paradigm that was part of the Dalek Project but it was killed when the Doctor sent Survey Ship Sigma crashing to the ground in 1917. The archaeologists discovered the wreckage of Survey Ship Sigma in 2017 and used it in an attempt to reconstruct the casing of one of the Daleks to study it. After it was constructed, the Dalek murdered Pierre, the excavation leader, and attempted to return power to the Dalek saucer while killing the archaeologists. It was destroyed by Damien Lightner and the Doctor in a digger but not before it connected the saucer up to a power line, allowing the surviving Daleks inside to revive. (COMIC: The Dalek Project)
Appearance
Since the archeologists did not know what a Dalek was the design of Quasimodo Dalek, while still retaining the same basic shape, differed significantly from that of other Daleks:
- The Dalek eyestalk was replaced with a Dalek gun.
- The Dalek lights were replaced by globes.
- The manipulator arm and gunstick were replaced by eyestalks.
- The globes on the bottom half of the casing and solar panels around the middle were swapped around.
Their lack of knowledge of Daleks was likely caused by the erasure or alterations of events such as the Battle of Canary Wharf (TV: Doomsday) or the War in the Medusa Cascade (TV: The Stolen Earth/Journey's End) caused by the cracks in Time. (TV: The Big Bang)
