Fifth Edition
Direct Fifth Edition treatments can be found in Houses of Hermes: True Lineages, particularly the Tremere section. The House Guernicus section, however, gives the first decent explanation for why the House is allowed to have parens hold the sigils of filii as well as touching on some background a tribunal ruling on certamen that furthered Tremere's plans. The section on House Tytalus in Houses of Hermes: Societates touches a little more on the death of Guorna the Fetid, including Tremere's role. The House Jerbiton also touches, again lightly, on Tremere's activities in the Theban Tribunal and the course of his plans prior to and after Jerbiton's death.
Likely the sourcebook Against the Dark provides more information of the Founder's involvement in that tribunal, and thus his involvement in critical periods of the development of his house.
Prior editions
As with the other founders and houses, the Second Edition sourcebook Order of Hermes provided the first real detail on the house and the founder. Houses of Hermes copied Order of Hermes outright, as far as the house founder himself was concerned.
