Dalek Prime: Difference between revisions

However, according to most accounts, the Daleks had not naturally emerged but been created before their time by [[Davros]], who had accelerated the future mutations of his people the [[Kaled]]s to derive the [[Dalek mutant|final form]], and invented the Dalek [[casing]]s to accommodate and empower these mutants. ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'') As such, the Dalek Prime actually started out as the first of those [[Genesis Dalek|experimental Daleks]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The History of the Daleks (short story)|The History of the Daleks]]'', ''[[War of the Daleks (novel)|War of the Daleks]]'', etc.) By one account, [[Dalek One]] was the designation for the first "perfect Dalek" and the "finished version" of Davros's [[Travel Machine]] project following an [[Davros' prototype|earlier prototype]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Davros Genesis (short story)|Davros Genesis]]'')

In one account of the genesis of the Daleks experienced by the [[Fourteenth Doctor]], which he feared was [[rupture|rupturing]] the "[[timeline]]s and [[canon]]", Davros presented the first Dalek, which sported a [[multi-dextrous claw]], to his assistant [[Castavillian]], who decided the next form of the Kaled race should take on an anagram of their own name, but Davros did not like his suggestions, which included [[Klade]]. Afer Davros took his leave, [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] crashed into the room, severing the Dalek's claw. Disembarking, the Doctor recognised the prototype as a "Dalek" and counted himself lucky he was not "[[exterminate]]d", which Castavillian [[bootstrap paradox|loved the sound of]]. The Doctor then made a hasty exit but not before providing Castavillian with a [[plunger]] retrieved from the TARDIS as a [[suction cup|replacement]] for the claw, which Davros approved of.
