- "I do not understand the infatuation with these skittering thrustbugs, brother. The Skimmers present more nuisance than aid to our efforts. I am convinced they - much like their leader - have their own agenda."

Skimmers, also known as the Gasgira,[1] are combative entities of an unidentified species, commanded by the Harbinger during the Installation 07 conflict.[2][3]
