Defence Drone: Difference between revisions

The Defence Drones had very similar [[Casing|casings]] to the [[metal]] casing created by the Reconnaissance Dalek and were predominantly [[black]] and [[silver]] in [[colour]]. The Defence Drones were adorned with [[blue]] [[Light|lights]], including a blue [[Dalek eyestalk|eyestalk]] [[lens]], as well as a blue light within their [[Grating section|grating sections]]. In addition, the Defence Drones' [[Base unit|base units]] featured less [[Sense globe|sense globes]] than the Reconnaissance Dalek's scrap casing, as their casings had black layered panelling around the bottom of their base units.   

Originally purely [[Robot|robotic]] in nature, the Defence Drones were initially harmless, and were designed to function as assistance to [[police]] and [[security]] services; this was reflected in their [[Weapons platform|weapons platforms]], which featured a [[gunstick]] that shot [[water]], and a [[gas]] emitter in place of the traditional [[manipulator arm]]. However, Leo Rugazzi (under the control of a [[clone]] of the Reconnaissance Dalek) modified them, the Defence Drones gained the more traditional functions of a Dalek casing; they became hospitable for the cloned Reconnaissance scout Dalek mutants, their gunsticks could [[Extermination|exterminate]] [[Human|humans]], and they possessed [[flight]] capabilities. In addition, their blue lights and the lights of their grating section turned [[red]]. The Defence Drones' gunstick blasts were coloured red, unlike the blue blasts of traditional Daleks, and their victims were enveloped in a bright red light when exterminated.
