History of Turok
Turok is a Kiowa warrior from Pre-Columbian South America. He is an expert Archer and wields a bow of alien technology. He also ages very little from living in the Lost Land, hunting dinosaurs.
Turok is warrior with ancient wisdom and futuristic technology. He is known as the “Son of Stone” for his level-headedness, stoicism and lack of emotion. He is an expert Archer and wields a bow of alien technology.Turok and his brother Andar are Kiowa Native Americans who find themselves lost in a cosmic oddity called the Lost Valley or the Lost Land. While hunting north of the Rio Grande, the brothers fell through a sink hole into a cavern that opened into a place where “time no longer held much meaning!” The Lost Valley was populated by both Dinosaurs, which the brothers referred to as “Honkers,” and the warriors of the Lost Land, a race of primitive men who were “taciturn” and “strong.”
They spent a great deal of time both battling “honkers” and trying to return to their pre-Columbian home by escaping the Lost Valley. Turok does indeed find a way to escape at one point but must return to rescue his brother. However, while he is in the Lost Land with Andar there is a seismic event that seals the path and traps them in the Lost Land.
Later a race of robots invaded the Lost Valley through another cave and began to take over by raising a city and corrupting the environment. Turok and Andar led the cave men warriors against the robots unsuccessfully for some time until Magnus robot fighter arrived in the Lost Land and helped to turn the tide.
Magnus was followed not long after by a Cosmic being called Mothergod. Mothergod’s promises to restore harmony to the Lost Land led Turok and Andar to swear allegiance to Mothergod. Mothergod in turn outfits them with super hi-tech bows as well as well as cybernetically enhancing the local dinosaurs making them bionisaurs. But more and more strangers entered the Lost Land to stop Mothergod and Turok soon discovered that she was not the benevolent goddess he had thought. He joins the ranks of XO Manowar, Shadowman, Solar and Rai against Mother god and her bionisaurs. In the war against Mothergod Andar disappeared and Turok’s adopted tribe had been slaughtered by a team of bionisaur assassins. This prompted Turok to accept Andar as being lost and vowed to take the life of the assassins’ leader Mon-Ark.
Upon the demise of Mothergod the Lost Land dissolved and both Turok and the remaining bionisaurs escaped to earth. Equipped with his futuristic weapons, Turok hunts down the remaining bionisaurs throughout South America and the South Western United States. Turok also went on to be Native American struggles, fighting clone dinosaurs, and the Spider people, a tribe of warriors from the Lost Land.
Now throughout history, a Native American hero by the name of Turok has secretly protected Earth from the invasion of a race of evolved dinosaurs from a world of evolved prehistoric creatures known as the Lost Land. Typically Turok is a mantle passed down from one generation of the Fireseed lineage to another, the eldest son of the previous Turok typically honored with the title and its duties.
