I second this; if a better player than I can lead the Tejar to victory, or at least a much better showing ... so be it! Okay, the original, tongue-in-cheek humor concept of the Tejar is pretty well lost, but ... here is my half-formed concept:

The Tejar are a fungal-based species, evolved from a forgotten, unfinished science project left behind as the Terrans withdrew from their region of space; the Terrans are in fact "the Creators", despite Tejar misconceptions. The "Walls of Paradise" is the Ringworld in the Terran home system (walls, ringworld, think about it ...).

The Tejar holy scriptures indicate they were not the ONLY "creation" left behind, and they (mistakenly?) believe that every other species EXCEPT the Terrans, whom they meet, are in fact "siblings in creation", other Children of the Creator.

The Tejar don't KNOW they resulted from an imperfectly-sterilised-and-stored petri dish in a Terran research laboratory, however. They think they are The Chosen Ones, etc, etc, so on, and so forth.

FWIW
