History
After the Dalek Emperor judged to be guilty of crimes against the Daleks, (PROSE: The Novel of the Film) the Dalek Prelature were tasked with exterminating the renegade Time Lord (AUDIO: Mastermind) within the Act of Master Restitution. (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords) As he stood motionless in a cage containing a paralysis field, (PROSE: The Novel of the Film) they blew his body to fine dust, with high-pitched cries of "Exterminate!". (TV: Doctor Who) However, the Master was able to survive his execution, having acquired the physiology of a Deathworm Morphant. (AUDIO: Mastermind, TV: Doctor Who)

Behind the scenes

 * The Master's Dalek executioners are heard but not seen in the opening sequence of Doctor Who. They would be identified as the Dalek Prelature in the audio story Mastermind.
 * The voice of the Dalek executioners was provided by director Geoffrey Sax. (DCOM: Doctor Who)
 * An illustration of the Master's execution is depicted in one installment of the Doctor Who DVD Files feature Flashbacks, published in its sixty-first issue of the magazine. The Dalek executioners are depicted as hovering Imperial Daleks, identical to those originally seen in Remembrance of the Daleks.
