Turvo was a gorilla who lived in the territory of Chalo in the late 31st century. He was one of the soldiers under the command of prefect Veska. Turvo accompanied Veska a strip of scorched land where they discovered the remains of the Icarus. Inside the ship was the body of a dead astronaut, Jonesy, and two empty command chairs. Veska ordered Turvo to bury Jonesy's body then put out a search on the two missing astronauts. After doing so, Turvo brought a message from Veska to Councilor Zaius in Central City. The message detailed what they had found and also indicated that two dangerous humans were at large.
