Just what Harry needs. Daleks.
Ironically, wizards would be stupidly effective against them. Their suits are very advanced technology. So they'd sorta... pop. Or maybe just spin around helplessly in circles. (:
Diebdazar:
Hrm, though are the Dalek's tech advance enough to fall under the "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" paradigm?
Cybermen would probably have some trouble, not so sure about the Daleks and the like. . . Unless I'm imagining things, some NeverNever creatures (or maybe the denarians?) have made references to there being other inhabited worlds?
Though if the daleks encountered on earth were just Nevernever beings akin to the 'movie monsters' in Proven Guilty. . . Then they likely wouldn't have any 'actual technology'.
And, while I'm on a doctor kick :P
The Doctor: No, but there’s a power in words. If I can find the right one, if I can just know you…
Mother Doomfinger: None on Earth has knowledge of us
The Doctor: Then it’s a good thing I’m here. Now, think, think, think… Humanoid, female, uses shapes and words to channel energy… ah, fourteen! That’s it, fourteen! The fourteen stars of the Rexel planetary configuration! Creature, I name you… Carrionite!
(Mother Doomfinger screams and vanishes in a flash of light)
Martha: What did you do?
The Doctor: I named her. The power of the name. That’s old magic.
Martha: But there’s no such thing as magic.
The Doctor: Well, it’s a different sort of science. You lot; you chose mathematics. Given the right string of numbers, the right equation, you could split the atom. Carrionites use words instead.
TheMouse:
Okay, that works. Nevernever beasties taking their shape from the geeks at a sci-fi convention could work out just fine.
Rel Fexive:
It's worked at other types of convention, after all....
