Turg's origins trace back to the Lost Tribe of Sith, his birth occurring around the year 0 ABY. He enlisted in the Tribe's fleet, serving as a member of the crew aboard the Starstalker, which was commanded by Captain Vyn Holpur. He participated in the endeavor to obtain wintrium samples from the Fountain of Ancients located on Klatooine. During this operation, he engaged in combat, slaying numerous Klatooinian protectors, until Hutts intervened, launching an assault on the Starstalker and capturing the Sith personnel. Subsequently, Holpur, along with the rest of the crew, Turg included, faced a death sentence for their transgression against the Fountain.
