Dalek

A Dalek is a fictional alien species from the British science fiction series *Doctor Who*—armored, tentacled creatures housed in tank-like mechanical shells, bent on exterminating all non-Dalek life.

Their grating cry of Exterminate! has become iconic.

The word sometimes describes anyone robotic, merciless, or incapable of nuance: He moved through the office like a Dalek, firing people without emotion.
