Location

Dalek City (Spiridon)

A thriving Dalek metropolis on the planet Spiridon, built from ferrocrete spires that dominate the landscape with their towering presence. The city operates as a center of Dalek oppression, featuring main gates where enslaved workers transport vegetation under armed Dalek oversight. The upper levels house prison indoctrination facilities while the lower regions contain barricades from the Thals' final resistance against Dalek colonization. The air is thick with Sedment gas rising from vents and fungal spores coating every surface, creating a misty atmosphere of coercion and decay. At its heart lies the Dalek City Main Gates, the primary interface between enslaved population and Dalek ruling class.
