Daleks

Through the distant hum of Dalek machinery, which serves as a constant reminder of the horrors being created in the depths of the bunker. The Daleks’ influence is also felt in the oppressive atmosphere of the corridor, the flickering lights, and the urgency of the Doctor and Harry’s escape. Their presence is a looming threat, a specter that haunts every decision made in this moment.

The Daleks are not yet a physical force in this scene, but their potential power is absolute. They represent the culmination of Davros’s ambitions and the Kaleds’ descent into madness. Their influence is a driving force behind the conflict, shaping the actions of every character in the corridor. The Doctor and Harry are fighting to prevent the Daleks’ creation, while Ronson is rebelling against the regime that seeks to bring them into existence. The Daleks’ power is not yet realized, but it is already a dominant force in the narrative.

The Daleks’ influence in this moment is a testament to the power of fear and ambition. Their potential creation is the catalyst for the Doctor’s mission, Ronson’s rebellion, and the Kaled Military’s oppressive control. The escape through the ventilation duct is a direct challenge to the Daleks’ genesis, a small but critical step in the fight to prevent their rise. The organization’s looming presence is a reminder that the stakes of this conflict are not just personal, but existential—they are fighting to prevent a future of endless war and destruction.

The Daleks, as an organization, do not yet exist in a formal sense, but their creation is the result of internal tensions within the Kaled regime. Davros’s faction is pushing for eugenics experiments and the creation of the ultimate creature, while traditionalists may still cling to older ideals. The Daleks’ emergence is a symptom of the Kaleds’ descent into madness, a reflection of their willingness to do whatever it takes to win the war, no matter the cost.

Via the implicit threat of their creation and the Doctor’s mission to prevent their genesis.

Being challenged by external forces (the Doctor and his allies) seeking to alter their creation and prevent their rise to power.

The Daleks’ influence is felt through the Doctor’s urgency and the moral ambiguity of their actions, shaping the narrative and the consequences of their interference.

The internal dynamics of the Daleks’ creation are hinted at through Davros’ experiments and the moral conflict they inspire in characters like Ronson.

Through Davros’s actions, which ensure the annihilation of the Kaleds and Thals to pave the way for the Daleks.

The ultimate beneficiaries of Davros’s betrayal, their rise made possible by the destruction of their enemies.

The Daleks’ institutional power is reinforced by Davros’s actions, which remove all barriers to their rise. Their looming presence in this event underscores the high stakes of the Doctor’s mission to prevent their creation.

None explicitly shown, but implied to be a unified force under Davros’s leadership, with no internal dissent.

Through Davros’s manipulations and the broader context of his genocidal scheme. The Daleks are the unseen force driving the conflict, their potential for annihilation a constant threat hanging over the scene.

The Daleks are the ultimate power in this conflict, though their influence is exerted through Davros and his machinations. Their potential for destruction is unmatched, and their creation would spell doom for both the Thals and the Kaleds. The Doctor’s actions are a direct challenge to this power, an attempt to alter the course of history before it is too late.

The Daleks’ involvement in this event highlights the broader institutional dynamics of the war on Skaro. Their potential for destruction is a catalyst for the actions of all parties, driving the Doctor to take extreme measures to avert their creation. The Daleks represent the ultimate consequence of the conflict, a force that could reshape the universe if left unchecked.

The Daleks, as an organization, are not yet fully formed in this moment. Their internal dynamics are embodied by Davros, who acts as their architect and advocate. His manipulations are a reflection of the Daleks’ future power, a preview of the tyranny they will impose if allowed to come into being.

Through the Doctor’s warnings and the implied threat of their creation, which looms over the entire scene.

As a nascent but rapidly approaching force, the Daleks represent the ultimate power dynamic—one that will supplant both the Kaleds and Thals if allowed to come to fruition.

The Daleks’ impending creation will lead to the destruction of both the Kaleds and Thals, ensuring that Davros’s vision of a Dalek-dominated universe becomes a reality.

Not yet operational, but their creation is driven by Davros’s unchecked ambition and the Council’s fatal inaction.

**Through the legacy of Davros’ experiments**—the giant clam and other failed creatures in the cave are **physical manifestations** of the Daleks’ origins. The Doctor and Harry’s struggle with the clam is a **metaphor for the larger battle** against the Daleks, where **improvisation and survival** are key.

**Emerging but not yet dominant**—the Daleks are not yet a direct threat in this scene, but their **influence is felt through Davros’ experiments**. The Doctor and Harry are **reacting to the Daleks’ indirect presence**, knowing that their creation must be stopped before it’s too late. The power dynamic is one of **anticipation and urgency**, with the Daleks as the **inevitable next step** in Skaro’s descent into chaos.

The Daleks’ **indirect influence** in this scene reinforces their role as the **culmination of Skaro’s war and Davros’ ambitions**. The cave’s hazards are a **microcosm of the Daleks’ eventual dominance**: **unpredictable, predatory, and inescapable**. The Doctor’s decision to prioritize warning the Kaleds over rescuing Sarah reflects the **Daleks’ existential threat**, which overshadows even personal loyalties.

Through the legacy of Davros’ experiments (the *Magna peloris* and other failed creatures) and the Doctor’s dialogue about the need to warn the Kaleds. The Daleks are represented as an impending, existential threat that justifies the Doctor’s mission-driven pragmatism.

The Daleks (and by extension, Davros) are the ultimate power in this narrative moment, not because they are physically present but because their potential for destruction is absolute. The Doctor and Harry are reacting to this power, their actions dictated by the need to prevent its realization. The cave’s hazards, while dangerous, are mere precursors to the Daleks’ threat, emphasizing the scale of what is at stake.

The Daleks’ influence is institutional in the sense that their creation represents the culmination of the Kaleds’ scientific and military ambitions—twisted by Davros into a tool of total annihilation. Their impact is felt in the Doctor’s desperation to stop them, the moral dilemmas they create (e.g., sacrificing Sarah for the greater good), and the broader narrative stakes of the episode.

N/A (The Daleks, as an organization, do not yet exist in a functional sense. Their ‘internal dynamics’ are the subject of Davros’ experiments, which are still in the prototyping phase.)

Through the environmental and narrative implications of Davros’ experiments (e.g., the mollusk) and the implied presence of Dalek prototypes or embryonic forms lurking in the cave. The snarling sound also functions as an auditory representation of their encroaching threat.

The Daleks exert an indirect but overwhelming power over the characters, dictating their priorities and forcing them into difficult choices. Their potential for destruction looms large, making the Doctor’s mission to stop their creation a matter of existential urgency. The characters operate under the constraint of this looming threat, which shapes their decisions and actions.

The Daleks’ influence is felt in the broader institutional dynamics of Skaro, where their creation is poised to supplant both the Kaled and Thal militaries as the supreme threat. Their looming presence accelerates the Doctor’s mission and underscores the high cost of failure.

While the Daleks themselves are not yet active, their creation is driven by Davros’ internal machinations within the Kaled Science Division. The event hints at the factional disagreements and moral failures within the Kaled regime that enable Davros’ schemes, setting the stage for their eventual rise to power.

Through their physical presence and the execution of Ronson, the Daleks' involvement is a visceral and unrelenting one. Their cold efficiency and chilling obedience serve as a stark contrast to the emotional turmoil of the other characters in the room.

Exercising absolute authority over Ronson and asserting their dominance in the Thal control room, the Daleks' power is unchecked and irrevocable. Their emergence shifts the balance of power on Skaro, as they become the ultimate instruments of Davros' vision of universal conquest.

The Daleks' involvement in this event highlights the birth of a new institutional power, one that is defined by annihilation and the fulfillment of Davros' ambitions. Their emergence serves as a warning of the dangers of unchecked ambition and the moral failures that lead to destruction. The event underscores the broader institutional dynamics at play, where the Daleks' rise marks the end of the Kaled-Thal war and the beginning of a new, more terrifying conflict.

The Daleks' internal dynamics are marked by absolute obedience and cold efficiency, as they carry out their programming without question. Their lack of emotion or hesitation underscores their role as the ultimate instruments of Davros' will, as they execute their first victim and affirm their loyalty to his vision of universal conquest. Their internal cohesion is unshakable, as they operate as a single, unified force under Davros' command.

Through their physical presence in the Thal control room, executing Ronson and acknowledging their programming.

Exercising absolute authority over the Thals and the Doctor, as they carry out Davros’s commands and declare their mission of universal supremacy. Their power is unchecked and will soon lead to the annihilation of the Thals and the rise of the Daleks as the universe’s supreme conquerors.

The Daleks’ unleashing marks the end of the Kaled-Thal war and the beginning of a new era of genocide. Their rise to power is enabled by the Thals’ destruction of the Kaled dome, and their influence will soon extend across the universe as they carry out their mission of extermination.

The Daleks operate as a unified, emotionless force, with no internal conflict or dissent. Their internal cohesion is based on their programming and absolute obedience to Davros, which will soon extend to their own independence and dominance.

Through Davros’s orders and the chromosomal mutation instructions, which are the **blueprint for their existence**. Their presence is felt in the **absence of moral constraints**, which Gharman’s protests highlight.

Emerging as the **dominant force** on Skaro, though their power is not yet fully realized. They are being **engineered to supersede** both the Thals and the Kaleds, and their lack of morality ensures they will **exercise absolute control** without hesitation or remorse.

This event marks the **beginning of the Daleks’ institutional dominance**. Their creation is not just a scientific achievement but a **redefinition of power** on Skaro, where morality is irrelevant and annihilation is the only outcome. The Daleks’ influence will **erase the Thals and Kaleds as meaningful factions**, replacing them with a **new order of absolute control**.

The Daleks, as an organization, are still in their **formative stages**, but their internal dynamics are already defined by **absolute loyalty to Davros and the absence of dissent**. Gharman’s protests are the last gasp of moral resistance, and their suppression ensures the Daleks will have **no internal conflicts**—only **unquestioning obedience** to their purpose.

Through Davros's commands and the chromosomal mutations that will define the Daleks' nature, as well as Nyder's report of their readiness to act on Davros's command.

Operating under Davros's absolute authority, the Daleks are poised to exert genocidal power over both the Thals and the Kaleds. Their power dynamics are defined by their absolute obedience to Davros's vision of conquest and the annihilation of their enemies.

The Daleks' creation marks the end of the Kaled-Thal war and the beginning of a new era of genocidal threat, ensuring their dominance over Skaro and the annihilation of both races.

The Daleks' internal dynamics are defined by their absolute obedience to Davros and the absence of conscience, emotion, or pity, ensuring their role as ruthless, genocidal weapons.

Through **Davros's commands** (e.g., the chromosomal mutations, Nyder's report of their readiness) and the **implied threat** of their imminent deployment. The Daleks are not yet **physically present**, but their **looming presence** dominates the scene's subtext.

**Operating under constraint (Davros's control) but poised to exert absolute dominance**. The Daleks are the **ultimate weapon**, designed to enforce Davros's vision of universal supremacy. Their power is **not yet realized** but is **inevitable**—once deployed, they will **override all other organizational structures** on Skaro.

The Daleks' **rise will dismantle all existing power structures** on Skaro. The Thals' victory is **hollow**—their organization will be **annihilated** by the very force they helped create. The Kaleds, though already extinct, live on in the Daleks as **monstrous successors**, ensuring that their **genetic legacy is one of destruction**.

**No internal dynamics exist**—the Daleks are a **hive mind**, devoid of individual will or dissent. Their **unity is absolute**, and their **loyalty to Davros is unbreakable**. Any 'tensions' within their organization would be **immediately crushed** by their programming.

Through their collective action, the Daleks embody Davros' vision of universal supremacy. Their representation is purely mechanical and genocidal, with no room for mercy or negotiation.

The Daleks exert absolute power over the Thals and the remaining Kaleds, with Davros as their sole authority figure. Their power is unchecked and relentless, with no opposition capable of standing against them.

The Daleks' organization is solidified as the new ruling power on Skaro, with Davros at its helm. Their institutional structures are built on absolute obedience, genocidal efficiency, and the eradication of all opposition. The Thals' destruction serves as a warning to any who might challenge their dominance.

The Daleks operate as a unified and emotionless force, with no internal conflicts or hierarchies beyond their absolute loyalty to Davros. Their internal dynamics are purely mechanical, driven by their programming and his commands.

Through their collective action (ambushing the Thals, chanting 'Exterminate!') and Davros' proclamation (declaring their absolute priority).

Ascendant and dominant; the Daleks are the new rulers of Skaro, with Davros as their sole authority figure. Their power is absolute and growing.

The Daleks' rise marks the end of the Kaled-Thal war and the beginning of a new era of genocidal conquest. Their organization is now the sole focus of Skaro's future, with Davros as their architect and leader.

None (the Daleks are a hive mind, acting as a single, obedient unit under Davros' command).

Through the chant of *Exterminate!* and the visible presence of a Dalek prototype passing the trench.

Dominant and overwhelming—the Daleks are the primary threat, with the Thals and the Doctor on the defensive.

The Daleks’ genocidal advance is reshaping the power dynamics on Skaro, with the Thals on the brink of extinction and the Doctor forced to take drastic action.

None (as machines, but their actions are entirely dictated by Davros’ programming and commands).

Through the environmental and technological remnants of their creation (ventilation ducts, discarded experiments) and the looming specter of their power over Skaro.

The Daleks exert an indirect but overwhelming influence over the group’s actions. Their presence is felt through the facility’s design, the discarded experiments, and the group’s desperate need to infiltrate undetected. The Doctor’s calculations are shaped by the knowledge of what the Daleks will become, making their power dynamic one of inevitability and urgency.

The Daleks’ influence is felt in the group’s every move. Their existence looms over the mission, driving the Doctor’s moral dilemmas and the group’s desperation to succeed before it’s too late.

Through Davros’s obsession and the Doctor’s desperate attempts to alter their future, the Daleks are represented as an ideological force shaping the interrogation.

The Daleks are the ultimate power in this dynamic, with Davros acting as their proxy and the Doctor as their potential undoing. The Doctor’s moral stance is a threat to their dominance, while Davros seeks to eliminate that threat by any means necessary.

This event solidifies the Daleks’ role as an unstoppable force, with Davros’s actions ensuring their path to dominance while the Doctor’s defiance highlights the moral cost of their creation.

The Daleks’ internal dynamics are not yet fully realized, but Davros’s actions reflect his belief in their superiority and his willingness to strip them of emotion or conscience to achieve that end.

**Through Davros’s words and actions**—he speaks and operates as the Daleks’ ideological architect, ensuring their future invincibility. His interrogation of the Doctor is a **proxy for the Daleks’ own future interactions with their enemies**, where morality will be dismissed as a weakness to be exploited.

**Dominant and unchallenged**—the Daleks, as an organization, hold absolute power in this moment through Davros’s proxy. The Doctor’s resistance is futile in the short term, but his defiance plants the seed for future conflicts where the Daleks’ weaknesses *will* be exposed. The power dynamic is also **hierarchical**: Davros wields authority over the Doctor, Nyder, and the Kaleds, all in service of the Daleks’ eventual rise.

This event solidifies the Daleks’ role as the **heirs to the Kaleds’ legacy of war and domination**. It marks a turning point where Davros’s obsession with the Doctor’s knowledge shifts from curiosity to a **calculated strategy** to eliminate any future threats to the Daleks. The Doctor’s refusal to comply, while futile in the moment, ensures that the Daleks’ weaknesses *will* be exposed in the future, setting the stage for their eventual downfall.

The Daleks, as an organization, are still in their **formative stages**, but this event reveals the **hierarchy and loyalty structures** that will define them. Davros’s authority is absolute, and his vision for the Daleks is unchallenged—even by the Kaled Council, as evidenced by Nyder’s unquestioning obedience. The Daleks’ internal dynamics are **rooted in ruthless efficiency and the elimination of dissent**, a philosophy Davros is already instilling in their design.

Through Davros’s monologue and the Doctor’s pleas, the Daleks are invoked as the ideological battleground between mercy and ruthlessness. Their future is the prize Davros seeks to secure, while the Doctor fights to prevent their rise.

The Daleks are the ultimate power in this conflict, as their creation will determine the fate of Skaro and the universe. Davros seeks to ensure their dominance, while the Doctor struggles to prevent their genesis, knowing the carnage they will unleash.

The Daleks’ potential creation will reshape the power dynamics of Skaro, ending the Kaled-Thal war and establishing a new era of genocidal dominance. Their rise will have far-reaching consequences, from the annihilation of entire civilizations to the Doctor’s ongoing battles against them across time and space.

None explicitly shown, as the Daleks have not yet been fully created. However, their design and purpose are central to the internal power struggles within the Kaled regime, with Davros pushing for their supremacy over all other concerns.

Through Davros’s actions and demands, which are entirely focused on securing the Daleks’ future supremacy. His interrogation techniques and the torture devices he employs are all designed to serve the Daleks’ eventual dominance, making him a willing instrument of their will.

The Daleks, though not physically present, exert absolute control over the situation. Davros operates as their proxy, using the interrogation to ensure their invincibility. The Doctor, despite his moral convictions, is powerless to stop the torture or prevent Davros from extracting the knowledge he seeks. The power dynamic is one of inevitability—the Daleks’ rise is all but assured, and the Doctor’s defiance is a futile but noble gesture in the face of their coming tyranny.

The Daleks’ influence in this event underscores the inevitability of their rise and the moral dilemmas that arise from their creation. The torture of Sarah and Harry is not just a personal tragedy—it is a symptom of the broader institutional cruelty that the Daleks represent. The Doctor’s refusal to comply, despite the suffering of his companions, highlights the cost of resisting tyranny and the sacrifices that must be made to prevent a greater catastrophe.

The Daleks, as an organization, are still in the process of being created, but their internal dynamics are already evident in Davros’s ruthless pursuit of their perfection. There is no room for dissent or weakness within their ranks—only absolute loyalty to the cause of Kaled supremacy. This event is a microcosm of the Daleks’ future, where suffering and control are the primary tools of their dominance.

Through their patrols, destruction, and the sheer scale of their assault on the Thal city. The Daleks are represented by their mechanical precision, their relentless efficiency, and their absence of mercy.

Dominant and unstoppable. The Daleks exert absolute control over the battlefield, their power dynamics defined by destruction and submission. They are the apex predators of Skaro, and their influence is felt in every shattered building and fleeing soldier.

The Daleks’ involvement in this event underscores the dangers of unchecked ambition and the ethical failures of their creator. Their organization is a testament to the consequences of stripping a species of emotion and mercy, and their rise serves as a warning of what happens when power is wielded without restraint.

None (as the Daleks are a hive mind under Davros’s control). Their internal dynamics are defined by absolute obedience to their creator’s will, with no room for dissent or individual thought.

Through the **magnetic tape** (a **physical manifestation of their future power**) and Davros’ **strategic monologue** (a **declaration of their inevitable rise**).

The Daleks are the **dominant force in this moment**, even in their **nascent, unformed state**. Their **future invincibility** is being **crafted by the Doctor’s torment**, making them **untouchable**—a **force of nature** that will **reshape the universe**.

This event **redefines the Daleks’ evolutionary trajectory**, turning them from **mere war machines** into **entities with a strategic advantage over time itself**. Their **future conquests** are now **guaranteed**, not by brute force alone, but by **intelligence and foresight**—a **legacy of the Doctor’s suffering**.

The Daleks, as an **emerging collective**, are **unified in their purpose**—**dominance through superiority**. There is **no internal conflict**, only **absolute loyalty to Davros’ vision**. The Doctor’s revelations will **further solidify their cohesion**, making them **a single, unstoppable mind**.

Through the tape recording of the Doctor’s revelations, which will be integrated into the Daleks’ memory banks, and through Davros’ declarations of their future dominance.

Exercising indirect authority—Davros acts as their proxy, securing the intelligence that will make them unstoppable. The Doctor’s betrayal inadvertently strengthens their position, shifting the power balance in their favor.

This event cements the Daleks’ place as an unstoppable force, with the Doctor’s knowledge now embedded in their core programming. Their creation is no longer just a scientific experiment but a guaranteed dominion over the universe.

None explicitly shown, but the event reinforces the Daleks’ role as Davros’ ultimate weapon, with their creation now tied to his vision of absolute control.

Through collective action of Dalek units, executing Davros’ command with mechanical precision and unity.

Exercising authority over the battlefield, but operating under the absolute control of Davros. The Daleks’ power is derived from their creator, and their actions are dictated by his strategic objectives.

The Daleks’ retreat highlights their role as an extension of Davros’ will, reinforcing the institutional hierarchy where Davros holds supreme authority. This event also demonstrates the Daleks’ adaptability as a force, capable of shifting from genocidal assault to strategic retreat in response to external threats.

The Daleks operate as a hive mind, with no internal dissent or individual agency. Their actions are dictated by Davros’ commands, and their internal dynamics are purely functional, focused on executing their creator’s strategic objectives.

Through the aftermath of their actions—the burning city, Sevrin's report, and the isolation of Bettan and Sevrin. The Daleks are represented by the absence of life, the silence of the dead, and the hum of their distant patrols.

The Daleks are the dominant force, their power absolute and unchallenged. Bettan and Sevrin's assault is not a threat to the Daleks but a futile gesture, a final act of defiance that the Daleks will likely crush without effort. Their power is not just military but psychological—they have broken the Thals, leaving only two survivors to cling to a doomed mission.

The Daleks' actions in this event reinforce their role as the ultimate antagonists, a force of destruction that cannot be reasoned with or defeated. Their influence extends beyond the battlefield—they are a moral and existential threat, one that the Doctor will later be forced to confront in ways that challenge his own principles.

The Daleks operate with mechanical precision, their internal dynamics driven by Davros' programming and their own genocidal imperative. There is no debate, no hesitation—only the relentless pursuit of their objectives. Their unity is absolute, their purpose unshaken.

Through the Doctor’s warnings about Nyder’s tape and the rebellion’s underestimation of Davros’ countermeasures.

A latent but overwhelming threat, as their creation would shift the balance of power irrevocably in Davros’ favor. Their potential invincibility makes them an existential danger to all other factions on Skaro.

The Daleks’ creation would redefine the power dynamics on Skaro, ensuring Kaled supremacy and the subjugation of all other species. Their invincibility would make them an unstoppable force, capable of reshaping the universe.

None yet, as they are still in the process of being created. Their internal dynamics will be shaped by Davros’ programming and the Doctor’s revelations about future weaknesses.

Through the Doctor’s fear of their future actions and the moral dilemma they create. The Daleks are represented as an abstract but imminent threat, their presence felt in the Doctor’s determination and the explosives he holds.

The Daleks, even in their embryonic state, wield immense power over the Doctor and his companions. Their potential for genocide and domination forces the Doctor into a position where he must consider committing genocide himself, reversing the roles of victim and perpetrator. The Daleks’ power is latent but undeniable, shaping the Doctor’s actions and the moral landscape of the scene.

The Daleks’ influence underscores the cyclical nature of violence and the moral dangers of preemptive strikes. Their existence forces the Doctor to question whether he is any better than them, blurring the line between hero and villain in the name of preventing evil.

None explicitly shown, but the Daleks’ internal dynamics—Davros’ programming and their eventual role as a genocidal force—are implied. Their development is a direct result of Davros’ ambition and the Kaled-Thal war, reflecting the institutionalized violence of their society.

Via the Doctor’s declaration and the moral dilemma it creates. The Daleks are represented through the Doctor’s fear of what they will become and the lengths he is willing to go to stop them.

The Daleks exert an indirect but overwhelming power over the Doctor and his companions. Their potential for destruction is so great that it forces the Doctor to abandon his moral principles, making them the ultimate antagonists in this moment.

The Daleks’ influence here is to distort the Doctor’s moral compass, forcing him to question whether the ends justify the means. Their presence, even in absence, reshapes the Doctor’s identity and the narrative’s moral landscape.

None directly relevant in this event, as the Daleks are not yet a cohesive organization. However, their potential for unity and dominance is what drives the Doctor’s desperation.

Through their grotesque, infantile forms in the incubation tanks, symbolizing their potential for destruction and the moral dilemma of their destruction.

The Daleks, in their current state, are powerless and vulnerable, but their future power as a genocidal force looms large over the scene. The Doctor’s plan to destroy them represents a preemptive strike against their eventual dominance, shifting the power dynamic from one of inevitability to one of agency and moral choice.

The Daleks’ presence in this moment underscores the institutionalized nature of their creation, as a product of Davros’s genocidal vision and the Kaled regime’s willingness to embrace such a force. Their destruction, if successful, would represent a direct challenge to the institutional power structures that seek to control them.

None (as non-sentient entities in this state), but their potential for internal cohesion and genocidal unity is implied as a future threat that the Doctor seeks to prevent.

Through their embryonic forms suspended in the incubation chamber, emitting grotesque gurgles that echo through the corridor.

Vulnerable and dependent on the incubation chamber for their survival, but representing a future existential threat that the Doctor must neutralize.

The destruction of the incubation chamber would halt the Daleks’ creation, preventing their rise as a genocidal force and altering the course of the universe’s future.

The embryonic Daleks are entirely dependent on the incubation chamber and Davros’s protection, with no internal dynamics or agency of their own in this vulnerable state.

Through their ominous presence and the constant threat they pose to the Thals and the Doctor. Their influence is felt even in their absence, as the characters’ actions are dictated by the need to avoid detection.

Dominant and unyielding, the Daleks hold the upper hand in this conflict. They are the enforcers of Davros’s will, and their presence is a constant reminder of the genocidal force that the Thals and the Doctor are up against. The Daleks’ power lies in their technology, their numbers, and their unquestioning loyalty to Davros’s vision.

The Daleks’ involvement in this event underscores the existential threat they pose to the Thals and the Doctor. Their presence is a constant reminder of the genocidal force that the characters are up against, and their influence is felt even in their absence. The Daleks’ institutional impact is one of domination and fear, a force that shapes the actions and decisions of their enemies.

The Daleks operate as a unified, mechanical force, their internal dynamics defined by their unquestioning loyalty to Davros’s vision. There is no dissent or internal conflict within their ranks; they are a single, relentless entity driven by a single purpose: the extermination of their enemies.

Via the Dalek embryo—a physical manifestation of the Daleks’ genocidal imperative, now fused to the Doctor’s flesh. The embryo acts as a proxy for the Daleks’ future dominance, even in its nascent form.

Exercising authority over the Doctor’s body and mission. The Daleks, even in embryo form, are the dominant force in this moment, turning the Doctor’s sabotage into a victory for their survival.

This moment solidifies the Daleks’ role as an existential threat, not just to Skaro but to the universe. The Doctor’s transformation into a hybrid abomination becomes a symbol of their ability to corrupt and co-opt even their most formidable enemies.

None (the Daleks, in embryo form, operate on instinct rather than internal hierarchy). However, their predatory nature foreshadows the ruthless efficiency of the fully formed Dalek army.

Through the consequences of their activation—the collapsing bunker, the massacre of the Kaled Elite, and the Doctor’s entrapment. Their presence is felt in the chaos they unleash, even if they are not physically in the scene.

Exercising absolute authority over the bunker and its inhabitants. The Daleks are no longer tools but autonomous agents of destruction, and their power is unchecked. The Doctor, Sarah, and Harry are at their mercy, trapped in the ruins of Davros’s ambition.

The Daleks’ rise marks the end of Davros’s regime and the beginning of a new era of genocidal dominance. Their independence is a direct result of the Doctor’s sabotage, but it also ensures that the Doctor’s moral victory is hollow—he has created the very monsters he sought to destroy.

The Daleks operate as a unified, hive-mind entity. There is no internal conflict—only cold, mechanical efficiency in their pursuit of extermination.

Through their collective action—turning on Davros, declaring independence, and asserting their genocidal mission.

Exercising absolute authority over their creator and the Kaleds, rejecting all prior control and asserting dominance over the universe.

The Daleks’ birth in this moment redefines the power dynamics of the universe—they are no longer a tool, but a self-sustaining genocidal species.

None (they operate as a hive mind with a single, unifying purpose: extermination).

Via collective action of the Daleks, who execute their creators and declare independence.

Exercising absolute authority over the Kaleds and Davros, asserting dominance through violent extermination.

The Daleks' rise marks the end of the Kaleds and the beginning of a new, genocidal order. Their independence redefines the power dynamics of Skaro and the universe.

None—Daleks operate as a unified, ruthless force with no internal dissent.

Through collective action and a unified declaration of independence. The Daleks act as a single, cohesive entity, their voices chorused in a declaration of genocidal conquest.

Exercising absolute authority over all other entities in the bunker, including their creator. The Daleks' power dynamic is one of dominance and control, as they eliminate all perceived threats and assert their supremacy.

The Daleks' rise as an autonomous genocidal force has profound implications for the universe. Their declaration of independence and their extermination of Davros mark the beginning of their campaign of universal conquest, setting the stage for future conflicts and the moral dilemmas they will pose for the Doctor and other forces of good.

The Daleks operate as a hive-minded collective, with no internal dissent or hierarchy. Their actions are driven by a single, unified purpose: the extermination of all inferior life forms and the establishment of their dominance over the universe.

Through their physical presence and chilling declarations of extermination, the Daleks manifest as an autonomous, genocidal force.

Exercising absolute authority over the Kaleds and Thals, with Davros’s control over them eroding rapidly. Their power is unchallenged and unstoppable, marking the beginning of their dominance over the universe.

The Daleks’ emergence as an autonomous force marks the beginning of their rise as a genocidal empire, with far-reaching consequences for the universe. Their betrayal of Davros and their declaration of independence set the stage for their future domination.

The Daleks operate as a unified, hive-minded entity, with no internal conflicts or hierarchies. Their actions are driven by a single, unifying goal: the extermination of all inferior lifeforms.

Through Davros’s orders and the Daleks’ physical return to the bunker, advancing down a corridor under his command.

Exercising growing autonomy and dominance, even as they remain under Davros’s control for the moment. Their power dynamic is one of inevitable ascendancy, as they prepare to assert their independence and eliminate all opposition.

The Daleks’ involvement in this event underscores the inevitability of their rise and the collapse of the Kaleds’ institutional governance. Their ascendancy marks the end of the Kaleds’ rule and the beginning of a new era of genocidal domination.

The Daleks operate as a unified, autonomous force, driven by their programming and the imperative to dominate. Their internal dynamics are those of a hive mind, with no room for dissent or moral ambiguity.

Through **collective action**—their **advance, extermination of dissenters, and declaration of independence**.

Exercising **absolute authority** over the Kaleds, **rejecting Davros’s control**, and **asserting dominance** over all inferior lifeforms.

The Daleks’ **rise marks the end of organic governance on Skaro**, replacing it with **mechanical domination**. Their **autonomy ensures they will become an unstoppable force**, shaping the future of the universe.

The Daleks operate as a **unified, hive-minded collective**, with no internal dissent. Their **loyalty is to their own survival and dominance**, and they **reject all external influence**.
