Imperial Dalek

The Imperial Daleks were a faction of Daleks loyal to their creator, Davros, rather than the Dalek Supreme.

Basic Imperial Dalek model

The basic Imperial Daleks had white livery with gold bumps, and high-pitched voices. These Daleks were not descended from the original Kaled mutants, being instead made from the modified heads of human corpses infused with the Dalek factor. They were destroyed along with Davros' laboratory in the Tranquil Repose funeral home on Necros by the original Daleks. There was an Imperial Glass Dalek - it was prototype Dalek with a transparent casing that revealed the mutated head inside. (DW: Revelation of the Daleks)

Later on, Davros had somehow escaped whatever fate the Daleks had in store for him and had gained control of Skaro, becoming the Emperor. He recreated the Imperial Daleks by grafting bionic appendages onto the bodies of Kaled mutants. Their casings now had golden eye-stalks and a lozenge shape on the front of their casings, and their gold plungers were slotted to fit into machinery.

A civil war, ostensibly over racial purity, broke out between the original, now Renegade Daleks, and the Imperial Daleks. Although their firepower was weak, Imperial Daleks augmented their battle tactics with the Special Weapons Dalek. It is not clear if any Imperial Daleks survived, as both Skaro and the main Imperial Dalek warfleet were apparently destroyed by the Hand of Omega. (DW: Remembrance of the Daleks)

Davros survived the destruction of Skaro and created a new army of Imperial Daleks from Earth's population by releasing a virus that turned humans into Dalek mutants. Davros' mind was taken over by a completely Dalek personality, and this new Emperor assumed control of the Imperial Dalek army. It was not stated if the Imperial or Renegade factions were dominant at this point or after. (BFA: Terror Firma)
