I like them, and we need them.
They would spawn near rivers, lakes, and swamps. When digging on the edge of any of these terrain bodies you would have a low chance of finding a turtle egg. Upon death, a turtle would provide a single turtle meat, one bone, and one turtle shell. The meat would give 1 CHA and 1 PSY. The egg can be cooked for 1 PSY. The shell can be used as jewelry. Also, as a hat.
They are non-hostile like other small creatures (excluding the demonic ants). One in one thousand turtle spawns will spawn a giant turtle which is usually just under the surface of the water and may swim up and devour the player traversing a swamp, or at least bite off a toe. They give an additional meat, bone, and a giant turtle shell. The meat provides 2 PSY and 1 CHA. Giant turtle shell jewerly provides 1 CHA and 1 PSY.
