The [[Quatch]], an ethereal species from another dimension, possessed an [[empire]] which inhabited the same region of [[space]] as [[Skaro (Masters of War)|Skaro]] did in a [[Parallel universe (Sympathy for the Devil)|parallel universe]]. In an attempt to destroy Skaro and access the vast reservoir of [[dimensional energy]] at the planet's [[Planetary core|core]], the Quatch provoked a war between Skaro's two dominant species, the [[Kaled (Masters of War)|Kaleds]] and the [[Thal (Masters of War)|Thals]]. This war was ultimately ended by [[Davros (Masters of War)|Davros]] when he created the Daleks.

The xenophobic Daleks abandoned Davros after being created, and began forging an empire with the aim of destroying all non-Dalek life; they were referred to as the "Renegades" by the other group of Daleks, who instead desired to locate Davros after he abandoned Skaro, disappointed by his creations for not achieving what he perceived to be their full potential. | ||

Centuries after the Doctor liberated the Thals from the Daleks, Skaro had once again fallen under Dalek control, with overall leadership being owned by the [[Black Dalek (Masters of War)|Black Dalek]], and the Daleks loyal to Davros ruled over the Thals, having discovered that the Quatch intended to launch an invasion of Skaro.

The Daleks' rule was strict; they [[Rationing|rationed]] [[food]] for the Thals, required them to provide proof of [[identity]], enforced [[curfew]]s and forced Thals to live in designated groups. Furthermore, the Daleks frequently broadcast [[propaganda]] programmes depicting Davros preaching lessons to the Daleks about their [[history]] and purpose. In addition, the Daleks began an operation to discreetly convert Thals into Daleks so that they could effectively fight the Quatch. However, Thal [[freedom fighter]] groups formed as a result of the Daleks' strict rule; when the Doctor and Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart travelled to Skaro together, they worked with [[Gillen]] and [[Nadel]] to start a [[revolution]] against the Daleks. | ||
The Doctor successfully trapped a Dalek and hijacked its programming so that it believed itself to be Davros. The Dalek then broadcast to the entirety of Skaro, claiming to be Davros. In response, the Black Dalek ordered the Dalek to be destroyed, but this triggered a divide between the Daleks; some sided with the Black Dalek, whilst others did not want to destroy what could potentially be the Daleks' creator. | The Doctor successfully trapped a Dalek and hijacked its programming so that it believed itself to be Davros.
