The Tellarites hail from Tellarite Prime in the Alpha Quadrant and were among the founding members of the United Federation of Planets. Culturally, Tellarites tend towards impatience and strong emotion. Arguments are even considered a sport in some regions on Tellarite Prime.
Tellarite physiology includes a pair of small tusks on the lower jaw and good Tellarite names take the impact of these appendages into account. Both forenames and surnames are common, sometimes with a surname prefix.

Boch Tlussall
If ever there was a wit born on Tellarite Prime it was Boch Tlussall. Or at least that is what he paid people to say. He’s sharp enough, but every edge helps when it comes to competitive arguing. Fear in one’s opponent can be so useful. And so sweet. Dangerous way to go about it though.

Thufrich lorin Xuth
