My dad happened to be watching a Western on TCM last night, and when I saw one particular character, I thought, "Oh my god, it's the Steef!" and, surprise surprise, it turned out to be Clint Eastwood. They called him Preacher, but you got the impression that Stranger would have sounded just as good.
This would obviously explain how for the purposes of the game on its own, or the start of the game at least, the Steef would be the only one of his kind known to the inhabitants of this new region we'll be seeing.
I'm beginning to get worried that OWI are more concerned about making a Western than they are an Oddworld game. Not to worry, I do trust them to deliver something that is undeniably Oddworldian.
