Low-energy, laid-back, quiet. Friendly but distant. Flat affect and lethargic demeanor. Preternaturally calm at all times in a dissociative way. People person who is uncomfortable directly interacting with people; loves peoplewatching but hard to have a conversation with. Surprisingly good with kids, surprisingly inclined to whimsy. Becomes slightly more chatty and animated when communicating over the internet, where there is some degree of anonymity.

Tall, pale, lanky, with long dyed black hair and sleepy eyes. Such dark undereye circles that he always looks like he's recently been punched. Usually wears a dark trench coat, a faded t-shirt, fingerless gloves, fishnets and skirt, and black combat boots. Casts a shadow in the shape of a dog.

Interacts with the world from behind a film of constant low-grade dissociation that makes everything seem distant and soft and slightly out of focus. Moves slower and emotes less than most other alters. Identifies heavily with Gerry Keay from The Magnus Archives. Also identifies as a Churchyard Grim. Very Jewish; the whole system is, but Turos is the most observant. Bisexual and nonbinary, feels a stronger tie to the queer community than other alters. More invested in community affiliation than the other alters in general, while simultaneously less invested in individual relationships. Chronically exhausted. Prone to migraines and visual snow more than other alters, more heavily affected by / sensitive to chronic pain and chronic fatigue than other alters. His daemon, Lenore, changes form between a raven, a black shepherd dog, and a leucistic ball python.

Rest and relaxation

One of the host alters, has run a significant portion of daily life for many years

Typically at least partially oriented to time and space; tends to drift along in a dissociated haze but can remind himself where/when he is when he needs to. Detached from the present but not in a flashback way, he's just foggy and detached in general. Does occasionally flashback to 2016-2019 but can pull himself out of it fairly easily

Like all the host alters, does not have communication with other alters without significant effort, and even then is mostly limited to the other hosts (Gwl, Chloe, and Helen) and limited in scope (only with concentration and effort, only verbally). He can on occasion communicate with Bird, Critter, and Kipper, but it takes such intense concentration and effort it can't be sustained for more than a minute or two and tends to cause migraines. Very emotionally close with Gwl despite limited communication. Does not have access to trauma memories before age fourteen, cannot access any other alter's biographical memory, only aware of personal history he was actively fronting during or was actively told about.
