Surface of the planet Tellar
After developing planetary unity and warp drive in the early 1800s, Tellar established a space trade route with Vulcan in the 1920s. Aware of the planet Earth since the mid-twentieth century, the Tellarites avoided contact with humans due to war and strife on Earth until the late 2000s and then did not make formal contact until the 2140s.
The planet Tellar is a lush and green world while the native Tellarites are a pig-like race with short snouts, evolved from grub and mushroom eating mammals. The Tellarites themselves outwardly appear aggressive and frequently argue and insult others as part of their culture of total debate and absolute honesty. Overall, however, Tellarites are considered honorable and trustworthy, albeit very impolite and rude upon first impression.
