I´m requesting help from someone with knowledge about the tribes that makes up the Tsimshian and Salish-Shide councils. I´m about to start up a native campain and I have to do some research. Were should I start? Any good books to recommend, or homepages? Any info you can post here?
Cheers |

Well, I'd suggest you start with canon resources, namely Native American Nations, Vol.1 and Shadows of North America. There are several websites that go over the Salish languages, the official tribes, and some history.
Thematically, I suggest you take a look at Salish artwork, and what it might become. |

Probably a good start. There are tons of tribes in Western Washington alone, most of whom probably allied with one of the main tribes described in the NAN books (most likely the Salish). Many of these tribes are now operating large fairly posh casinos. It would be pretty reasonable to believe that after the Ghost Dance war was 50 years in the past that Tourism, at least to parts near Seattle, was probably a pretty big industry for the Salish, though still over shadowed by Gaeatronics. The Tulalip Tribe for example has a large Casino just north of Everett. Also if you were a wealthy Tribal Business man doing work with Seattle Based interests, you would probably live on Bainbridge Island just accross Puget Sound from Downtown Seattle, you might even have a dock slip at the Magnolia Marina.

Ancient that's some pretty impressive stuff. I didn't have that last one, or anything like it. Thanks from me too.
