Dalek ranks were often established by their genetic purity. During the [[Last Great Time War]], [[Daleks of human origin]] were created to bolster Dalek forces and were viewed as expendable "[[cannon fodder]]" to their [[Kaled mutant]] counterparts. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Engines of War (novel)|Engines of War]]'') In the [[Bad Wolf Incident]], the [[Dalek Emperor in the Last Great Time War|Dalek Emperor]] created his new army out of human DNA, which caused them to not only obey but worship the Emperor as the only pure Dalek.

When the New Dalek Paradigm was created from pure Dalek DNA found in the progenitor, both they and the impure Daleks which created them believed the new race was superior due to their genetic purity, and that any impure forms must be destroyed.

Led by a [[Dalek leader (Revolution of the Daleks)|bronze leader]], the [[Death Squad Dalek|Death Squad Daleks]] acted as the "enforcers" of purity amongst the Daleks. In the [[2021 Dalek civil war]], the Death Squad was summoned to Earth, secretly by the [[Thirteenth Doctor]], to deal with the [[Defence Drone]] Daleks. The so-called "New Dalek Army" had traces of human DNA (due to having been cloned by [[Leo Rugazzi]], who was unaware of the Daleks' true nature), and was subsequently exterminated by the Death Squad.
