Blue Dalek

Blue Daleks were Daleks bred to be non-commissioned officers. Slightly smarter than the grey Warrior Daleks but without the Red Daleks' level of autonomy, they served as the equivalent of sergeants and corporals. The Doctor told Sam this when she asked about the differently coloured Daleks milling about their city, some of which were blue.

During a trial of Davros conducted to root out traitors who sided with him, Blue and Red Daleks filled the room back to the walls behind the higher ranking Daleks. In the ensuing war a Blue Dalek in Davros' resistance was in command of a detail that was setting up bombs in the lift shafts to destabilise the structure of the city's control centre building. Under fire from the Dalek Prime's forces he continued to work on priming the first bomb but as the Daleks beside him were killed he made the decision to abort the countdown and detonate the bombs. The structure was weakened but remained intact. (PROSE: War of the Daleks)

After the Last Great Time War, Strategist Daleks of the New Dalek Paradigm were identified by their blue casing. (TV: Victory of the Daleks)
