Within the Unified Skaroan Alliance, the Daleks were revered by the Kaleds and Thals, who craved [[Revenge|vengeance]] against the [[Time Lord (The Warrior's universe)|Time Lords]] - particularly the Warrior - for their role in attempting to avert the Daleks' creation. The Twin Dalek held an extremely high role in the Skaroan Empire, alongside [[Commander]] [[Esk]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') and [[Davros (The Warrior's universe)|Davros]] also fought for the Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') The Time Lords continued to regularly regard the Daleks as their true enemy in the Time War, particularly as they frequently engaged the Daleks in battle without the presence of the Kaleds or Thals, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'' et al.) and bred generations of Time Lords who were raised solely to fight the Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'') The Unified Skaroan Alliance installed a vast number of temporal defences around the exact moment that the [[Fourth Doctor]] destroyed the Dalek [[Incubation room|incubators]], rendering it the most fortified point in all of [[time]] and preventing anyone from ever returning to it, although the Warrior made several futile attempts to return to and avert the incubators' destruction, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') and Davros and an alternate version of the Warrior briefly managed to return to the [[Kaled Dome|Kaled bunker]] during what Davros regarded as "the final days" of the Kaled-Thal war during their quest to assemble the [[Key to Time (The Warrior's universe)|Key to Time]] near the very end of the Time War. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') The Daleks also destroyed this universe's equivalents of [[Karn]] and the [[Sisterhood of Karn]], although the Time Lords managed to retrieve the [[Elixir of Life]] from the planet's ruins. The Daleks eventually waged an assault on [[Gallifrey (The Warrior's universe)|Gallifrey]], during which the Elixir of Life was used by [[Narvin (The Warrior's universe)|Narvin]] to allow the Fourth Doctor - having been mortally wounded by a prototype Dalek in the aftermath of the Dalek incubators' destruction - to [[Regeneration|regenerate]] into the Warrior.

The Daleks frequently battled the Warrior and [[The Master (The Warrior's universe)|the Master]] together during the War, leading to constant acts of [[genocide]] and [[planet]]ary destruction. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') Early in the Time War, the Warrior authorised a stratagem to breed a species of psychic warriors powerful enough to fight the Daleks and ordered the Master to enact it. The latter did so on [[Planet (Who Am I?)|the Warrior's universe's version]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Who Am I? (audio story)|Who Am I?]]'') of [[Mordee]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Face of Evil (TV story)|The Face of Evil]]'') creating the [[Sevatesh]], a hybrid of [[Sevateem (The Warrior's universe)|Sevateem]] and [[Tesh (The Warrior's universe)|Tesh]] warriors, and secretly planned to use them to completely eradicate both the Daleks and Time Lords before conquering the [[multiverse]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Who Am I? (audio story)|Who Am I?]]'') although the Master's plan ultimately never came to fruition before the destruction of the Warrior's universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') Later in the War, a [[Dalek saucer (Time Killers)|Dalek saucer]] and a [[Dalek time ship (Time Killers)|Dalek time ship]] were caught in a dogfight and 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]] Millennians, 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 remaining Dalek technology on Marinus was destroyed when the Warrior dematerialised in his TARDIS following the Master's rebellion against Horol, an action which destroyed the planet due to the erasure of Horol's [[temporal web]].

During the Warrior's [[President of the High Council|Presidency]], he led the Time Lords' efforts to fight the Daleks from the [[War Room]] on Gallifrey. When 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 end the Time War by defeating both the Daleks and the Time Lords.

The Warrior [[hate]]d the Daleks, regarding them as [[Gallifrey (The Warrior's universe)|Gallifrey's]] greatest enemy in the Time War, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'') and also considered them his oldest [[WC]]: ''[[Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis (webcast)|Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis]]'') and personal greatest enemy, on par with [[The Master (The Warrior's universe)|the Master]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') He considered the Daleks to be the "one true constant" in his [[life]], yet ruthlessly vowed to kill every single Dalek in the universe regardless, ([[WC]]: ''[[Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis (webcast)|Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis]]'') and was willing to sacrifice almost anything to wipe them out. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'', [[WC]]: ''[[Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis (webcast)|Doctor Who Unbound - Doctor of War: Genesis]]'') Despite this, he found the prospect of the Time Lords' actions in the Time War making them as evil as the Daleks to be preposterous, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Difference Office (audio story)|The Difference Office]]'') and was horrified at what he perceived to be the Time Lords resorting to destroying the entire universe in order to defeat the Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') However, while he initially felt no remorse for destroying the Dalek [[Incubation room|incubators]] on [[Unified Skaro|Skaro]], and vowed to do so again potentially forever if necessary, the Warrior came to regret his attempt at averting the Daleks' creation due to how powerful the Daleks of the new timeline became as a result of his actions. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aftershocks (audio story)|Aftershocks]]'') The Warrior's other greatest enemy, the Master, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Key To Key To Time (audio story)|The Key To Key To Time]]'') believed that "the only good Dalek [was] a dead Dalek," ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'') and came to [[fear]] them in the [[Carrisent Particum timelines]], particularly the [[Twin Dalek]].

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 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 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; the Time Lords continuously referred to the Daleks first and foremost as their main enemies in the Time War, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'' et al.) while 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]]'') Like most of the universe, the Daleks took little interest in [[Aridius (The Warrior's universe)|Aridius]] and the [[Aridian]]s due to the planet's slow death wiping out Aridian civilisation, thereby leaving Aridius with borderline no resources of use to anyone. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dust Devil (audio story)|Dust Devil]]'') The [[Sevateem (The Warrior's universe)|Sevateem]] and [[Tesh (The Warrior's universe)|Tesh]] were completely unaware of the Daleks' existence until near the very end of their war against each other, due to their own existence being manipulated by the Master and the Warrior to facilitate the birth of the [[Sevatesh]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Who Am I? (audio story)|Who Am I?]]'') The [[Millennian]]s of [[Millennius (The Warrior's universe)|Millennius]] were also unaware of the Daleks' existence, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'') although the [[Bankrupt]] Millennians learnt of them  as a result of an expedition led by the Master. [[Riffort]] initially mistook a group of [[Death|dead]] Daleks for "[[machine]]s." ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time Killers (audio story)|Time Killers]]'')

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]]'' et al.) the Daleks of the Warrior's universe tolerated [[Davros (The Warrior's universe)|Davros]] enough for him to serve them in the Time War. Davros himself believed that the Daleks' ruthlessness was potent enough that they would never use "indirect" weapons such as [[temporal horfrost]] against their enemies, even including the Warrior.
