This card depicts the Chained Dalek, as its name suggests, bound by chains within the Cage in the Van Statten Museum. Inverted shadows of soldiers can be made out in the background. The Dalek's eyestalk is inactive.

Description
This Dalek was the last of its kind. It crashed to Earth after the Time War. Its 'owner', Van Statten, called it a 'Metaltron'.

Character
This Dalek had fallen out of time and crashed on Earth. Its weapons and casing damaged nearly beyond use, it had found its way into underground auctions where it was eventually acquired for Henry Van Statten's collection. Simmons tortured the Dalek, trying to force it to talk.

The Dalek was found by the 9th Doctor in Van Statten's Museum after the latter had traced the former's distress signal. It learned from the Doctor that the Time War had ended in the extinction of both Time Lords and Daleks alike, and that the pair were the last survivors of their respective races. Rose Tyler took pity on the Dalek and touched it by mistake- giving the Dalek part of her background radiation from travelling with the Doctor and allowing the Dalek to regenerate itself.
