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

The Daleks frequently battled the Warrior and the Master together during the War, leading to constant acts of [[genocide]] and [[planet]]ary destruction. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') A [[Dalek flying saucer|Dalek saucer]] and a [[DARDIS|Dalek time ship]] crashed on [[Marinus (The Warrior's universe)|Marinus]] due to a [[temporal paradox|paradox]] created by [[the Warrior's TARDIS]] materialising on [[Horol|a Millennian]] in [[Millennius (The Warrior's universe|Millennius]], killing most of the Daleks onboard and leaving the few survivors to be killed by Marinus' deadly climate. The time ship was raided by rogue [[The Bankrupt|Bankrupt]], although the Master was able to lead his own Bankrupt expedition in salvaging numerous Dalek [[gunstick]]s and a [[Weapon (Time Killers)|weapon]] powerful enough to break through the [[The Wall (Time Killers)|temporal barrier]] surrounding Millennius. All Dalek technology left on Marinus was destroyed when the Warrior dematerialised in his TARDIS following the Master's rebellion against Horol. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'')

During the Warrior's [[President of the High Council|Presidency]], the Daleks invaded the [[Bridgeheaded Carthidge]]. The Warrior authorised the [[War Room]] to incinerate the entire Carthidge, killing all the invading Daleks as well as the vast number of non-Dalek lifeforms within. By this time, [[The Alliance (The Difference Office)|the Alliance]] had formed to fight both the Daleks and Time Lords and end the Time War. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'')

In the [[Aberrant timeline (Dust Devil)|original timeline]], the Doctor ultimately refused to avert the [[creation of the Daleks]], and the Daleks eventually fought the [[Time Lord (The Warrior's universe)|Time Lords]] in the [[Time War (The Warrior's universe)|Time War]], which led to the Time Lords sending the [[Fourth Doctor]] back in time to prevent the Daleks' creation. Due to the Fourth Doctor averting the Daleks' creation during the Time War, the original Daleks, and by extension, the rest of the original timeline, were erased from existence by the resultant [[temporal paradox|paradox]], along with approximately one million other [[timeline]]s. Even after being displaced into [[the Warrior's universe]], the [[Sixth Doctor]] of the original timeline was able to recognise a [[Dalek saucer (Dust Devil)|Dalek saucer]] of the Warrior's universe's Daleks on sight, despite the saucer originating from a different reality to that of his timeline's Daleks. The iteration of [[Peri Brown]] that traveled with him also recognised the relevancy of the Daleks from a mere mention of the word "[[Skaro]]." ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'')

The Daleks of [[the Warrior's universe]] [[Evolution|evolved]] far faster ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') than their counterparts in the [[Aberrant timeline (Dust Devil)|original timeline]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'') and, by extension, [[Dalek|their counterparts]] in [[the Doctor's universe]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'') as the [[Genesis Dalek]]s were able to use the [[Fourth Doctor's Time Ring]], which he accidentally left on [[Unified Skaro|Skaro]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') after being extracted by the [[Time Lord (The Warrior's universe)|Time Lords]] following his attempt to avert [[Creation of the Daleks|the Daleks' creation]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'') to rapidly accelerate their evolution into a [[time]]-active species ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') on par with the Daleks of the [[Last Great Time War]] of the Doctor's universe. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'' et al.) As such, Dalek technology in the Warrior's universe was designed to fuel the [[Unified Skaroan Alliance]]'s war machine against the universe, and particularly centered around [[time travel]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') [[The Master (The Warrior's universe)|The Master]] described the Daleks to the [[Brankrupt]] [[Millennian]]s of [[Marinus (The Warrior's universe)|Marinus]] as "[[engineer]]s from another world" whose technology was designed "to make [[slave]]s of the universe." ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'')

The Daleks utilised [[Dalek flying saucer]]s as their standard type of [[spaceship]], which were piloted exclusively by Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'', [[WC]]: ''[[Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis (webcast)|Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis]]'', [[WC]]: ''[[The Warrior Meets His Destiny (webcast)|The Warrior Meets His Destiny]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') These were identical to the bronze model ([[WC]]: ''[[Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis (webcast)|Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis]]'') used by the [[Bronze Dalek]]s of the Doctor's universe. ([[TV]]: ''[[Bad Wolf (TV story)|Bad Wolf]]'' et al.) [[Shuttle]]s were used on [[Unified Skaro]] to transport classified military equipment between bases on the planet, and were usually piloted by [[Kaled]] or [[Thal]] [[soldier]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') [[DARDIS|Dalek time ships]] were far larger in size than Dalek flying saucers and featured stronger weapons that were programmed to [[self-destruct]] if salvaged by non-Dalek [[lifeform]]s, although this failsafe could be bypassed by a skilled individual. [[Weapon (Time Killers)|One such weapon]] was powerful enough to break through a [[The Wall|temporal barrier]] separating two [[time zone]]s, and sounded a firing noise similar to that of a Dalek [[gunstick]]. If mishandled, however, the weapon had enough power to vapourise a large encampment. Dalek gunsticks could also be salvaged and used by non-Dalek lifeforms as handheld weapons. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'')

While the Daleks fought alongside the [[Kaled]]s and [[Thal]]s as part of the Unified Skaroan 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 the Kaleds and Thals, 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]]'') Beyond Skaro, the majority of the universe were fully aware of the Daleks' ruthlessness, and 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.
