Tellerites love a good argument. If they don’t have something to complain about, then it’s your fault and they’ll tell you so. This quality makes them excellent politicians, or at least practiced debaters. It keeps their minds sharp, and so they’re very talented at engaging other species.

They are a short, stocky people with prominent noses, and nostrils you could shove a golf ball through.

The Tellerites were one of the founding members of the federation after they ended a long feud with the Andorians to assist in a temporary alliance against the Romulans.
