| '''Swimmers''' were immense [[transcendental being]]s which dwelt in [[the Void]] between [[universe]]s. They were so vast that universes burst against their sides like bubbles against a whale. [[One (The Taking of Planet 5)|One]] and the [[hermit (The Taking of Planet 5)|hermit]] released the [[Fendahl Predator]] to prevent Swimmers from being attracted to the universe. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Taking of Planet 5 (novel)|The Taking of Planet 5]]'') They were also known as [[intercreational]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Book of the War (novel)|The Book of the War]]'')

| The [[Eighth Doctor]] considered Swimmers to be among the predators that could eat him while he was drifting through the [[Time Vortex]] unprotected. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'')

| The [[loa]] [[Baron Samedi]], his "wife" [[Maman Brigitte]], and [[Spinning Jenny]] were Swimmers. According to [[Gallifrey|Homeworld]] agent [[Cobden-Bright|Cobden]], Swimmers were merely another form of [[Leviathan (The Book of the War)|Leviathan]] that disturbed the "waters of reality" merely by existing. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Spinning Jenny (novel)|Spinning Jenny]]'')
