About Turk

Turk is a Ratel, or Honey Badger, who perpetually roams the known lands in search of his next meal. He escaped from the human giants' prison, called Zu, after they vanished during the Great Change. While he was held captive, food was provided regularly, but since the disappearance of his captors, meals have come the hard way. After exhausting the available prey in the area, he sought out meals in the outside world.

Since his humble beginnings, Turk has become a well-travelled fellow. Led across the land by his stomach, He's seen both ends of the world, where the dirt falls off into endless water. He's eaten creatures from the mountains, valleys, rivers, and plains, and even from the ruined wastes of the human giants.

His two very favorite things are food and sleep. When deprived of either, he can become a bit touchy. And hungry. But then, he always is. His seemingly insatiable appetite is balanced by is apparent ability to eat almost anything.

Over the seasons, Turk has found the need to temper his appetite for the sake of diplomacy. After all, it's a bit disconcerting when your food talks. And so, smaller neighbors have been known to offer him tributes of edibles, in thanks for his friendship and protection. He has been content to subsist on lesser creatures, plants, and his favorite, of course - honey, as long as they are in adequate supply.

Complications

Sleepwalker: He sometimes wakes up in strange places, with scrapes and scratches from apparent fights. Oddly, he's usually not as hungry after waking from these episodes...
