Thanks. I personally don't think Tenno are human as in 23 chromosome Homo sapiens human. They definitly seem to be humanoid in figure but one look at Nekros and you'll rethink that. I don't know why but i have this image of the Tenno as emaciated humanoid figures that rely on their frames to survive, hence the reason we've never seen them off. I like the idea of them as a reject mystic monsterous race that even when they coexisted with the Orokin Empire were denied as Area 51 like conspiracies. I get the idea (from the materials required to build the suits) that the frames themselves are not abiotic but are actually living manefestation of some sort of Technocyte-Tenno hybridization or splicing and that the suits are very much a part of them as is an arm or an ear to us.

I really want to know who they were and where they come from. They seem to have a reverence for human life and assist humans when they can but at the same time they didn't seem to be any lost love between them and the Orokin of which humans were citizens of their Empire. Do the Tenno reproduce or do they have to be made out of a former living being? The way the Tenno are described is that they are products of the Void's affects on living organisms. Are their non-human Tenno as in Tenno from... Martians being sent into the Void? I wish they'd reveal more in the lore.
