TRAGIC HERO OR CIRCUMSTANTIAL EXHIBITIONIST? "I got it, I got it, I don't got it!" is Turk Tackleburry's favorite tag line. He is a truly tragic creature; wrinkled, slow-footed and robbed of his most prized possession. The very thing that defines him, that gives him safety and shelter; his shell! But don't feel bad for ol' Turk. You just try and stop him from volunteering for the most challenging endeavors. You can knock him down, but he'll pop right back up, even if he's bit battered and bruised from the trip.

Fun Fact: Every year Turk reenacts the story of the "Tortoise and the Hare" by challenging a local rabbit to a 50 meter sprint. Unfortunately, unlike the famed story, Turk has yet to pass the one meter mark before succumbing to exhaustion.

What others say about Turk:

Lil' Pengy - "hello."

Terrance (The Badger) Kapunsky - "Turk is a trooper. He's had none of the breaks, as say, myself. You know, brains, looks, a wardrobe. But when I'm done with him he'll be unstoppable, well at least he won't fall down as much!"

Tushingham D. Hamsta - "That bare bloke can take a punch!"

Leonard (The Mole) Stepponnmeisser - "People say I'm pretty frail, although I don't know where they get that idea, I do my own taxes…from memory, and drink Cola! But this Turk fellow, I mean, Geez... whenever I see him he's shivering and stammering and he won't even try my anxiety medicine, which is quite potent, believe me."

Pheneas T. Gumption - "I'm sure I don't know anything about any NUDE reptiles. My God!"
