Tortles are natural wanderers, living much of their lives in solitude. They spend decades traveling across land, gathering experiences and knowledge.
Most Tortles are vegetarians or pescatarians but some have shown a taste for red meat and/or poultry.
Tortles rarely wear any clothing, favoring instead belts and harnesses to carry their belongings. Only in very cold environments would they wrap themselves in garments as they have little tolerance for cold, and usually migrate away from temperate areas when winter approached.
