Try this, all I had available from some scanned (and therefore searchabel sources) and the web. There is probably some other stuff. Bruse reads his email in the evening, I expect he could help you out.


The tribes which moved into the region were collectively called the Quivini, after the Quivin peaks in their region. They included the Torkani, Culbrea, Dundealos, Malani, and Balmyr. KOS Derik Poljoni was a warrior of the Dundealos tribe who contrived an early hatred of the Praxians, who had begun to raid his tribal lands. His family was slain by sable riders, and he escaped only because they thought him dead.
KOS Derik needed no prompting to exact his vengeance upon the Praxian nomads  after they treacherously invaded the Dundealos lands and pushed onward into Tarsh.
KOS One of Yarandros' men had a fierce hatred of the Praxians. His name was Derik, and he was of the Blue Jay clan of the Dundealos tribe KOS Dundealos
Location: South of the Balkoth, on the East side of the mountains. Population in 1610: 10,000.
In 1618 the Dundealos tribe rebelled against Lunar rule when a Lunar Tax Collector raped the daughter of the tribal king. The Lunar army made an example of the tribe, most of whom were either killed, enslaved, or forced to flee to their kin in the Poljoni. Those that remained were forcibly converted to the Lunar way and wre joined by Lunar settlers to form the Enstalos tribe (pop 1621: 3,000).

Picked this info from Jane Williams site. Not sure of the original document for this info - anyone else know?
