The Tungesti, of Human stock, are the work of a Creationist named Bal-Kriav. Seeding the world of Kriav, they were to help in the looming Primordial threat; that in ten generations became the Creation War (1486 DE - 8777 DE).
One of the peoples changed with the Cube Collapse of 1301 DE, the Tungesti were infused with the energy of a destroyed Cube of Arcane. This made them even more barbaric tempered, preferring the wild over civilization, and hardened against arcane energy; one group, struck while on horseback, fusing rider and mount, became the realm's first Centaur.
