Biography[]
Past[]
Turbo was the quarterback for the football squad at Glendale High School before the end of the world. He loved collecting toys and action figures, and every time his father went away for a while, he would bring him one. His father was absent for most of his life.
He subsequently developed a love relationship with Wesley Fists after becoming close to him at some point. It is unknown if their connection ever got known to the general public before the apocalypse because the two first kept it a secret.
In addition to burning off the right side of his face, the bomb that detonated also appeared to have taken away his ability to talk, reducing his vocality to a bunch of grunts, growls and roars like a savage brute.
Daybreak[]
Turbo had total, despotic authority over the tribes of Glendale after the catastrophe. He dominated by instilling dread in people who he thought he was superior to, with Mona Lisa serving as his second in command. His adversaries as a result of this rule included his ex-boyfriend Wesley as well as the Geeks and the Daybreakers.
Even those who were closest to him eventually feared his control, including Mona Lisa. Eventually, those closest to him became weary of his reign and plotted to remove him. This worked, and Michael Burr, who attempted to restore Glendale High School to its former splendor, took Turbo's position as the tribes' leader. After they abandoned him, Turbo went back to his former lover Wesley and joined the Daybreakers to take down Baron Triumph.
Appearance[]
In his Pre-Apocalypse appearance, he looks like the average High-school quarterback male with brown hair.
His post-Apocalypse appearance has changed drastically, mainly the entire right side of his face bearing 2nd-degree burn marks from the nuclear blast and his hair being all ruffled and rugged.
His outfit is Highly inspired (like the rest of the Jocks) by Mad Max. his signature mask an intimidating ramshackle with a one spray painted on the right side in yellow. He wears a necklace made of gold trophies he won and his shoulder-pads consist of plates(right) and 2 cycle tires(left). His torso is kinda revealing with only a bunch of belts and a bunch of small bags. He also wears an armband on his left arm that holds a bunch of daggers.
Trivia[]
- It's possible his loss of vocality is due to the radiation in the area as radiation exposure can damage your larynx(vocal chords).
