Skorans

Skorans are a fictional species from the Halo video game franchise. They are a sapient, bipedal insectoid race known for their aggressive and militaristic nature. Skorans are characterized by their hard exoskeletons, multiple limbs, and a hive-like social structure. They communicate through a series of clicks, chirps, and pheromones, which are largely unintelligible to other species.

The Skorans are primarily encountered as enemies in the Halo games, often serving as shock troops or specialized units within the Covenant, a coalition of alien races hostile to humanity. Their physiology allows them to survive in a variety of harsh environments. Skorans are typically armed with bio-organic weaponry and exhibit a remarkable capacity for coordinated attacks, making them a formidable foe. Their exact origins and homeworld have not been extensively detailed within the Halo lore, with most information focusing on their role as antagonists within the larger galactic conflict. Their presence in the games serves to provide a distinct type of enemy combatant with unique tactics and appearances, adding to the diversity of the Covenant's forces.
