Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Second Empire is a CG webcomic made by Mechmaster with the Daleks from Doctor Who as Protagonists.The story follows that of General Xenol of the First Conquest Army. Having ignored the orders of the Golden Emperor to establish an outpost at a swamp-world in favor of invading the more threatening planet of Slepkt IV, he is brought to Skaro for insubordination. At first the Golden Emperor congratulates Xenol for identifying the greater threat, only to chastise him for having failed to secure victory against the Slepktians.Xenol then complains that the reason he hasn't been able to conquer Slepkt is because, while the genetic programming of his Dalek troopers produces excellent soldiers, they lack initiative and have been out-thought by the Slepktians. The Golden Emperor is having none of it and it soon becomes obvious that he cares more about having obedient drones than competent soldiers.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })This gets Xenol to think with his top scientist Yttral - The Dalek Empire as it stands owes much of its power to other races, who create and maintain pretty much all Imperial technology. The Daleks slowly but steadily are decaying as their conquered peoples lose skilled laborers and as the genetic programming that they depend upon is steadily weakening the race by making them overdependent on their casings. Computers do much of their thinking and their leaders have slipped into complacency, content to obey their machines. Yttral himself is considered insane for actually performing research. Original Kaled devices are almost mythical Lost Technology.But the straw that broke the camel's back? New Daleks created on Skaro are no longer being issued names. The computers now only issue alphanumeric strings of code.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Xenol, supremely pissed off at this corruption of the Dalek dream, decides it's time to act, and the idea for a Second Dalek Empire is born...It can be found here.Now with a character pageThe prequel comic Trapped In Amber is available on the same site and tells the story of the battle for Weltro Major and Defence Post 27 Amber, first mentioned by Grexzol here. | |

A Lighter Shade of Black: What drives the plot and starts Xenol's rebellion. Xenol is still a Dalek, but he does actually care for the lives of his troops, and he's infuriated by the Emperor reducing newborn Daleks to simple serial numbers that are seen as expendable, and then sending them out into battle without the actual training that they need to keep from being obliterated. | |

The Siege: Half the webcomic is dedicated to the First Empire's attempt to retake Ziragalen with a brutal Zerg Rush. Trapped in Amber has an even more lopsided assault by the Mechonoids on Defence Post 27 Amber - half a million Mechonoids versus 500 Daleks. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Not apparent at first, but remember that the Daleks pretty much curb-stomp anything in the Whoniverse if The Doctor isn't involved, and that the Time Lords were the only beings that could match the Daleks in the Time War, and even then they ended up losing (sort of). Now, we have yet to see the Doctor (or any Time Lord, in fact) in the comic. Guess what this means for the rest of the Galaxy. | |

Uriah Gambit | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_229c2ec8 | comment |
Uriah Gambit: In the Siege of Ziragalen, the first wave of attackers is almost entirely composed of older Daleks - those with true names and who haven't been entirely slaved to the traveling machines' computers. The Second Empire's soldiers briefly lament they don't have the time to explain the situation, feeling they could get many of them to switch sides... so they just settle for exterminating them as quickly and efficiently as possible. | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: A fair few, with Yttral being the usual suspect. Examples include during the briefing scene before the assault on Skaro, Yttral randomly takes the sanitation Dalek's floor polisher and continues to push it around the table for a significant ammount of time, and later while the Second Empire commanders are planning their defences, he seems to be gesturing at Grexnarl about how large one of the screens is totally at random. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: The initial attempt by the First Dalek Empire to exterminate Xenol's rebellion ends in this for the forces of Skaro. Xenol and his warriors wipe out an entire Imperial Legion and their support elements and transport ships almost to the last Dalek. The only survivors are a small group who escape into the local swamp of doom (implied to have been brutally killed there) and the space fleet escort saucers that stayed in orbit. Nobody knows what the hell happened. Grexzol versus an entire enemy platoon. See, there's a reason seasoned veterans are worth so many times their weight in fresh recruits. | |

Super Prototype: Compared to the First Empire units, Second Empire travel machines are considerably more advanced. The First Empire desperately seeks the technology, but to compensate, it has access to larger armies, allowing it to think that there's a chance Zerg Rush is a valid tactic in this case. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_60fa92ac | comment |
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Let's see, we have Emperor Xenol (who gets called "The Dark Emperor" by the First Empire Daleks), Generals Grexnarl and Aychemex, First Captains Anzollo and Gnerk, Sub-commander Zlonozite, Golden Emperor Xanzathix, Yarvelling Davros, High Marshal Zolfian Kalkaderak... pretty much every name given is this trope. Hell, even the minor characters have pretty scary-sounding names! General Services Dalek Grexzol, anyone? Except for Pturdd. | |

Lost Technology | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_6114a875 | comment |
Lost Technology: Most of the original Kaled technology. Yttral lampshades that while the Daleks are more intelligent, the Kaleds were smarter. He wanted to examine old examples to reverse engineer them, but was denied at every opportunity, despite being the top Dalek scientist in centuries. He's understandably pissed. Add to that there is very little actual research being carried and that the Daleks are almost fully dependent on their slaves and on Davros to create and innovate new technology and you'll understand one of the major flaws of the First Empire. | |

Canon Welding | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_68da6712 | comment |
Canon Welding: Mostly Doctor Who series canon to the TV Century 21 Dalek comic strip but also including pretty much any Dalek-related media seen in the last fifty years. For example, the Golden Emperor comes from the comic strip, but his Imperial Guard are taken directly from the Davros Imperial Dalek faction from the late classic series period, while Xenol's Daleks have the colouring of the Renegade Faction from the same period and his Imperial Casing is the one from "The Evil of the Daleks". Both sides have capabilities taken from the latest series though like independent powered flight and many of the background characters have casings based on alternative designs from the various spin off books of the 1960's. The most obvious example though is the combination of Yarvelling, creator of the Dalek travel machines in TV Century 21 with Davros, creator of the Daleks in the TV series into a single character. | |

Super-Soldier | |
| Second Empire (Webcomic) / int_80b57bec | comment |
Super Soldier: Xenol, Pturdd and Yttral. Xenol and Pturdd were part of Project Ancestral, an attempt to create a better Dalek commander by reactivating dormant Kaled genes. As a result, Xenol is charismatic, extremely competent leader, but is independent to the point of insubordination; and Pturdd is a merciless and bloodthirsty commander, but also a Jerkass with an ego the size of a planet and a General Failure. Yttral is part of Project Y, an attempt to create a substitute for Davros. Of the ten Daleks to undergo conversion, only three survived; of those three, one became a vegetable and was Exterminated, the other was brilliant but couldn't forget the trauma of his creation and slowly went insane; Yttral, the third, is arguably one of the greatest Dalek minds, but is erratic and uncontrollable by Dalek standards (by ours, he just comes off as a very eccentric Absent-Minded Professor). Dalek Storm's casing has the speed, range and firepower of a Combat Hoverbout. | |

Alternate Universe: Can almost be read as the story of how the Daleks go from the fairly individualized race of the 1960's comics, content to have slave races, to the robotic-minded Absolute Xenophobes of the Third Doctor era onwards… but the series also features all kinds of Dalek designs and technologies not seen anywhere else, and has Xenol become the Emperor from Evil of the Daleks whereas in the 'canonical' universe, that Emperor was the same individual as the Golden Emperor. (Plus, there's little room in Emperor Xenol's biography for the events of Evil of the Daleks to happen to him at all.) | |

The initial attempt by the First Dalek Empire to exterminate Xenol's rebellion ends in this for the forces of Skaro. Xenol and his warriors wipe out an entire Imperial Legion and their support elements and transport ships almost to the last Dalek. The only survivors are a small group who escape into the local swamp of doom (implied to have been brutally killed there) and the space fleet escort saucers that stayed in orbit. Nobody knows what the hell happened. | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Grexzol and Yttral. The first keeps on rambling about his old campaigns, and the latter isn't all there. Both turn out to be way more dangerous than you'd think. However, Grexzol at least was already a mix between this and a particularly dull-witted smartass by the time of Trapped in Amber. Old Wolma is a senile Shell-Shocked Veteran randomly repeating a few phrases, such as "seventeen, ninety-three, four, four, twelve" and "the titanium squares". The first is actually foreshadowing the date of his death, and the second refers to a special medal awarded to the fortress' survivors... | |

Xenol and Pturdd were part of Project Ancestral, an attempt to create a better Dalek commander by reactivating dormant Kaled genes. As a result, Xenol is charismatic, extremely competent leader, but is independent to the point of insubordination; and Pturdd is a merciless and bloodthirsty commander, but also a Jerkass with an ego the size of a planet and a General Failure. | |

Running Gag: Nobody ever listens to Grexzol. This takes on a heartbreaking turn when it's the last thing that is said as Grexzol passes into the light with his former regiment. In the same way, the Dalek hanging out with Those Two Guys keeps asking to drive the transporter. He gets his wish driving the thing to carry a load of explosives in a suicide run to demolish part of Ziragalen Fortress on top of First Empire troops. | |
