Dalek (The Warrior's universe): Difference between revisions

Similarly to their counterparts in the [[Aberrant timeline (Dust Devil)|original timeline]] - whom [[Sarah Jane Smith]] described as "the most evil creatures ever invented" ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'') - and their [[Dalek|equivalents]] in [[the Doctor's universe]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'' et al.) the Daleks of [[the Warrior's universe]] were a species of [[Genocide|genocidal]] warmongers who firmly believed that they were superior to all other lifeforms in existence, and thus all other species existed solely to serve the Dalek race. They particularly hated the [[Time Lord (The Warrior's universe)|Time Lords]] for their attempt at averting [[Creation of the Daleks|their creation]], and fought fiercely to conquer them entirely and win the [[Time War (The Warrior's universe)|Time War]] as vengeance; ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') such was their dedication to this goal that they continued fighting the Time Lords relentlessly until the very end of the universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') The Daleks also regarded [[the Warrior]] as their greatest enemy for being directly responsible for the Time Lords' attempt to avert their creation, and their thirst for vengeance was such that only the eternal confinement of the Warrior's timeline inside the [[Carrisent Particum]] would satisfy them. They also continued to refer to the Warrior as "the Doctor", or alternatively "the Doctor that Was", as opposed to the new title that he embraced upon [[Regeneration|regenerating]] from the Fourth Doctor.

While they fought alongside the [[Kaled]]s and [[Thal]]s as part of the Alliance, and thus tolerated the two species' existence to some extent, within the [[Carrisent Particum timelines]], they began to grow discontent with the prospect of ruling the universe alongside them, as evidenced by a squad of Daleks [[Extermination|exterminating]] [[Commander]] [[Esk]] to allow the [[Twin Dalek]] to steal the Carrisent Particum. The Kaleds and Thals failed to recognise the Daleks' growing rebelliousness, however, as they greatly respected the Daleks. Commander Esk viewed the [[Dalek mutant]]s that died when the Fourth Doctor destroyed the [[Incubation room|incubators]] as "innocents" who were murdered "without remorse", and frequently referred to the later Dalek generations that fought in the Time War as "comrades" whom she respected far more than her own soldiers, going as far as to describe the Daleks as "like phoenixes" rising from the ruins of [[Unified Skaro|Skaro]] that destroyed all who opposed the Skaroan Empire. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') The majority of the universe were fully aware of the Daleks' ruthlessness, as the civilisations within [[The Alliance (The Difference Office)|the Alliance]] considered both the Daleks and the Time Lords to be equally monstrous. [[Styggron (The Warrior's universe)|Styggron]], one of their members, described the two species as "brutal creatures driven by hate and the desire to kill". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'') However, the [[Sevateem (The Warrior's universe)|Sevateem]], [[Tesh (The Warrior's universe)|Tesh]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Who Am I? (audio story)|Who Am I?]]'') and [[Millennian]]s were initially unaware of the Daleks' existence. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'') [[The Master (The Warrior's universe)|The Master]] considered the Daleks to "lack the Time Lords' panache" when naming their technology. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'')

Unlike the Daleks of the Doctor's universe, who had a highly conflicted relationship with [[Davros]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'') the Daleks of the Warrior's universe tolerated [[Davros (The Warrior's universe)|Davros]] enough for him to serve them in the Time War.
