Thalek (Brotherhood of the Daleks)

Thaleks were a powerful race that existed in an alternative timeline in which the Doctor never left Gallifrey. They conquered half of Mutter's Spiral with the weapons that they had devised. It was shown that they were occupied by Thal mutants rather Kaleds. Unlike the Daleks from the DWU timeline, they had morals and emotions. Their casing was seen to be made of the metal that would have been used by the Thals to make the neutronic missile in the proper timeline. They also were capable of teleportation due to transmat systems wired in their casings. Some of them were even capable of falling in love, as one Thalek was devoted to a woman who resembled a Thal. (BFDWU: Auld Mortality)


 * Their name suggests relation to both Daleks and the Thals. It appears that in this timeline, it was the Thals, rather than the Kaleds, that became a powerful cyborg race, the equivalent of the Daleks.

In the proper timeline, "Thaleks" was also a term coined by Charley Pollard to describe the Daleks that believed themselves to be Thals. (AUDIO: Brotherhood of the Daleks)
