Turmagar is an anthropomorphic walrus and the leader of the Tuskas. He and his people live an area of Third Earth known as Tuskania. When the water sources of Tuskania come under the attack of the mechanical monster The Giant Technopede, Turmagar comes to the ThunderCats for help. After they succeed in destroying the behemoth and saving the water source, Turmagar becomes an ally of the ThunderCats.

Strengths

While very docile in nature, Turmagar is also very courageous especially when it comes to guarding his home and his people. He will not back off from any attack and face the enemy head on.

Weaknesses

Turmagar's placid temperament sometimes becomes a hindrance especially in tough situations. The Tuskas also don't possess advanced technology or weaponry and this results in them being at a disadvantage when facing an opponent with high-tech artillery.

Turmagar's bulky size makes him rather slow and not ideal for hand-to-hand combat. Also the Tuska's over dependency on water makes them an easy target.

Weapons and Equipment

The Tuskas all own guns which are capable of firing small explosive charges. Turmagar's main mode of transport is the Gomplin, a creature which was domesticated by his ancestors and used as a steed by them.
