Doctor Who: 15 Greatest NuWho Deaths So Far

Doctor Who Osgood
BBC

From a devil, to a deity. Or at least, a Dalek who believes himself to be a deity. The Dalek Emperor has a serious god complex, believing himself to be the saviour of the Dalek race having escaped the Time War. He even goes so far as to cast the Doctor in the role of the devil.

Pride comes before a fall and, with this level of pride, the fall was going to be huge. And it was. Rose absorbed the time vortex by looking into the heart of the TARDIS, becoming more or less omnipotent if only for a brief amount of time. She turned the Dalek Emperor and his entire fleet to dust with a thought, proving to the emperor in his last moments that he had nowhere near the divine power he claimed.
