Turman often presented himself as a comically melodramatic individual to his fellow Wraith Squadron members, emphasized by his acting talents. These talents proved crucial to the squadron's mission to bring General Thaal to justice, especially when Turman adopted the persona of Embassy-Who-Climbs. Turman also demonstrates an impressive stay in character whenever he adopts a role, and this even helped Wraith Squadron try to understand what Thaal's plans were when he was drugged; when this happened, he began thinking what Thaal's motivations could be by adopting what he believed to be the General's character.
