Dalek

Doctor Who

The Supreme Dalek is a recurring, high-ranking Dalek designation within the Doctor Who universe. Functioning as a commander and strategist, the Supreme Dalek typically oversees Dalek operations and relays orders from the Dalek Emperor or other higher authorities.

Visually distinct, Supreme Daleks often feature unique colour schemes compared to standard Dalek drones. A notable example is the gold Supreme Dalek seen in "The Stolen Earth" and "Journey's End," positioned as second-in-command to Davros, the creator of the Daleks.

While possessing the same ruthless efficiency and genocidal tendencies as other Daleks, the Supreme Dalek demonstrates a higher level of tactical awareness and decision-making. Their primary directive remains the extermination of all non-Dalek life forms and the expansion of the Dalek empire.

Several iterations of the Supreme Dalek have appeared throughout Doctor Who history, each serving a crucial role in advancing the Daleks' nefarious plans. Their presence invariably signals a significant threat to the universe.
