References
- On Skaro, Thals and Kaleds were locked in a war that had raged for generations.
- Davros was a Kaled scientist who created the Daleks as a way for his race to survive. But Davros worked without conscience, without soul, without pity and his machines were equally devoid of these qualities.
- The Daleks left Skaro long ago. At times they have been commanded by Davros. He has been their lackey and their leader. A loving father and a vengeful god.
- Davros's chair is equipped with life-support systems that activate when he is under attack. "In other words, he can outstay his welcome in a big way."
- Davros has an artificial hand that can direct deadly energy bolts.
- The Doctor returned to Skaro and met Davros, encountering the Kaled when he was still a young child. The Doctor emphasized the importance of mercy. It is possible that this intervention persuaded Davros to imbue the Daleks with this quality.
