The original Dalek hierarchy was established by the [[Dalek Prime]] shortly after the [[creation of the Daleks]]. Under the Dalek Prime came the original [[Dalek Supreme]], also known as [[the Black Dalek]], "from the paint on his casing", who served as the [[Warlord (title)|Warlord]] of the Dalek people. Below the Black Dalek were "dozens of minor ranks" including [[Red Dalek]]s, who acted as "section leaders", as well as [[Red-and-gray Dalek]]s responsible for transportation and the [[Silver Dalek|gray]] and [[Blue Dalek|blue]] "rank-and-file".

Davros was displeased to learn that the Daleks were taking orders from a Supreme Dalek instead of him.

Following the near-destruction of both the Time Lords and the Daleks, the surviving Daleks attempted to rebuild their race. The [[Cult of Skaro]] tried twice but were foiled by the Doctor on both occasions. The Cult's leader, Dalek Sec, had a completely black casing while the other three — [[Dalek Thay|Thay]], [[Dalek Jast|Jast]] and [[Dalek Caan|Caan]] — had the standard bronze, although they were more than just soldiers. In the end, Sec was overthrown and Caan replaced him.
