Dalek Emperor

The Dalek Emperor was the leader of the Daleks.

History
The Dalek Emperor had taken on various forms, implying that different Daleks had assumed the role throughout the race's history. The casing was usually constructed to be recognizably different, as opposed to taking on a new livery as other Dalek ranks had. More often than not, the Dalek Emperor's casing was constructed to be quite large. Reports described of a casing that was deemed as immobile, plumbed into the corner of a control room on the Dalek homeworld of Skaro. Another such casing was reported to be present prior to the wikia:c:tardis:Great Catastrophe.

The Dalek Emperor had a booming voice, with a slightly different inflection than the standard Dalek vocal pattern, perhaps to further set it apart from the rest. When the Emperor was seen outside of its control room, it was usually accompanied by an entourage of guards. It was unknown if the Dalek Emperor's casing possessed any weaponry. Its guards and other drones usually did the fighting for it.

The Dalek Emperor was responsible for the creation of the Cult of Skaro, and the naming of its members, as within Dalek society, names were almost unheard of.
