Smuggling-Configured Starship Interrogation Chamber
Skaro (including Ruins of Skaro's Forgotten Sanctuary)

Skaro Mission Craft

The spacecraft’s interior envelops the crew in pale white surfaces that reflect the dim glow of emergency panels, their flashing amber lights casting rhythmic pulses across the polished floor. Comfortable acceleration seats with sculpted contours cradle occupants, their restraints lying unused—out of place for such a civilian crew. The air carries the sharp tang of overheated circuitry mixed with a metallic undertone from recent repairs. Control surfaces clutter the space, screens flickering with star charts and coded readouts that hint at haste and secrecy. The utilitarian elegance serves a crew that moved too fast to care for aesthetics, its polished floors and sterile surfaces disguising a space not built for diplomacy but for interrogations wrapped in administrative pretense. This craft appears in both Episode 1 and Episode 2 of Destiny of the Daleks, with interactions involving Sharrel, The Doctor, and other crew members.
