The Dalek Emperor, formerly designated [[Dalek Emperor (The Evil of the Daleks)|Genetic Variant Two-One-Zero]], was inspired to seek the human factor through an encounter with [[Steven Taylor]]. Intrigued by his behaviour, the Emperor gave the Daleks a prime directive to discover the human factor. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Across the Darkened City (audio story)|Across the Darkened City]]'') The Daleks recruited the [[Second Doctor]], against his will, to isolate and identify the human factor, using [[Jamie McCrimmon]] as a test subject. The Daleks claimed that they wished to distill the most important qualities from the factor and use it to make themselves more deadly. The Daleks, in fact, planned all along to use the Doctor's work to identify the [[Dalek factor]].

Once the human factor was identified, it was experimentally transferred to test Daleks, creating three [[humanised Dalek]]s. The Doctor gave them the names [[Alpha (The Evil of the Daleks)|Alpha]], [[Beta (The Evil of the Daleks)|Beta]], and [[Omega (The Evil of the Daleks)|Omega]]. He later sabotaged a Dalek machine so that it instilled the human factor into any Dalek that passed through it, converting them into humanised Daleks as well.
