The Dalek Asylum is a non-canon plane subtype featured in Doctor Who on the card Dalek Intensive Care.
Description
The Dalek Asylum was a snowy and mountainous planet used by the Daleks as a prison and "dumping ground" for those among them who had malfunctioned, gone insane, and/or become mentally scarred by battles. The Dalek Asylum was protected by a force field and a nanocloud, which converted beings that did manage to enter into Dalek puppets. The sane Daleks left their insane fellows in the Asylum rather than kill them because they epitomized the Dalek concept of beauty: pure hatred. Though the Daleks did not keep a precise count of how many of their brethren were incarcerated on the planet, they suspected it to be in the millions.
