The Searing Daleks maintained the same basic design as other Daleks, with a rounded base and appendages including gunstick, manipulators, and eyestalks. Materially, these units were composed of radically different matter than the Dalekanium that was generally used for hull construction. This difference caused them to appear indistinct or transparent.

abstract
| - The Searing Daleks maintained the same basic design as other Daleks, with a rounded base and appendages including gunstick, manipulators, and eyestalks. Materially, these units were composed of radically different matter than the Dalekanium that was generally used for hull construction. This difference caused them to appear indistinct or transparent. First-hand accounts surviving from the Time War state that the voice of a Searing Dalek was temporally displaced a few moments into the past, causing battle cries such as "EXTERMINATE" to be emitted before the Dalek consciously spoke. This made Searing Daleks useless for ambushes, but made it difficult to hide from them, as an alert raised in the future could draw Daleks from the present. The Searing Daleks were created in a manner that made use of the manipulation of time travel rather than the molding of materials. The creation of a Searing Dalek involved the targeting of an important point in time and space, such as a city populated by sapient beings. The collective timestream of the point would then be "crossthreaded" with the timestreams of thirteen lesser Daleks. The history of the targeted point would then be deleted, forcing the universe to rewrite the space-time coordinates in the form of a Dalek. The resulting unit would possess an innate ability to access the Time Vortex and manipulate time.
