At first, the tribe was only a small triarchy of clans. Grandfather Culbri the Old was the leader when the triarchy entered Dragon Pass in the early 1350's. Grandfather Culbri battled with the Balmyr and haggled with the Torkani. He took Lorthing Vale to be his home. There his hall should be built. With two good sons - Ogg and Kortyl - he drove the Aranwyth tribe out of the vale. Alas, young Kortyl got his bane, dealt by the evil Aranwyth warrior Rindebarg.

Grandfather Culbri the Old was wise and well-versed. He feasted men from the Varmandi clan and the Colymar tribe. He sent warriors and good carls to battle the mad king Mad-Blood Malan.

Ogg Culbrisson became the second king. During his reign Old Man Martehiord left Lorthing Vale. He wandered with followers and folk to the Owlflight Crest. Those highlands had always been good hunting and herding grounds. He spoke to Orlanth at the top of the Hill of Orlanth Victorious and Orlanth gave him Owlflight Crest and the lands eastward to the Weeping Oak as his gift. Again they were beset by the Aranwyth. Ogg Culbrisson killed their king in single combat. Ogg was killed by Svorjan Bluetounge of the Barlamani clan in 1357.

Svorjan became the third king. He began the "Within-blood-feud" when he killed Ogg Culbrisson. It is said that Svorjan Bluetounge was a madness-touched Uroxi; and much killing among the clans filled his reign. After tow years of blood-shed it came to peace at last. Svorjan was sent into exile in 1359.

King Torgal died peacefully 1430.

Recent history (Phase 4) (by Ingo Tshinke)

In 1604 the Culbrea were listed as a "Rebel Tribe" by the Lunars and subjected to severe pressure from the occupying forces.

In 1611 Gaudyr Longsword became chieftain of the Gwandor clan. The Culbrea tribe, together with the Kheldon and Colymar tribes and the Urox cult lead the call for rebellion under the leadership of Kallyr Starbrow. Supported by the Pol-Joni, the Culbrea tribe forced the Lunars out of Jonstown, and Hofstaring was victorious at the following battle. The Lunars declared the Culbrea tribe outlaws and after the meeting before Larnste's table which ended the rebellion Fazzur magically banished Hofstaring Treeleaper to a Lunar Hell.

In 1614 the Cinsina and Aranwyth moved to exploit the weakness of the Culbrea when, with Lunar encouragement, they took over large parts of the Culbrea lands. The population of the Culbrea tribe declined from 10,000 tribespeople in 1610 to 6,000 in 1620 and the Lunars sought to humiliate the bribe by confiscating the tribal House in Jonstown. (The Culbrea would again be permitted to use the house after 1618.)

Gaudyr Longsword maintained a relentless campaign of attacks on the Lunar supply lines and was declared outlaw in 1614. Kulbrast Offirsson was elected new chieftain of the Gwandor clan.

The Culbrea tribe, under new king Ranulf Grimblade, reproached the Malani for remaining inactive during their difficulties and for not offering help against the Cinsina and Aranwyth.
