rdfs:comment
  • Benden Weyr is the second of eight (by the end of the 9th pass) Weyrs on the planet of Pern in Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern fantasy novel series. Named for one of the Pern colony founders, Admiral Paul Benden, Benden Weyr was first led by M'hall (Michael Connell), rider of bronze Brianth and son of the Fort Weyr Weyrleaders, and his weyrmate Torene, rider of gold Alaranth. The mission, along with the founding of another 2 Weyrs (a number that by the end of the pass grew to 4 making a total of 6 Weyrs), was to accommodate the growing number of dragons and their riders. Benden Weyr is located within a double volcanic crater on the east coast of Pern near the Northern Barrier Range. Benden Weyr's symbol is a black Roman numeral II centered on a red diamond.
  • Benden was one of the three new Weyrs eventually formed by Weyrleader Sean Connell of Fort Weyr in the First Pass. Its first Weyrleaders were Torene, rider of Gold Alaranth and Michael Connell (later known as M'hall), rider of Bronze Brianth. It was originally referred to as the East Coast Weyr, however gold rider Jean proposed that it be called Benden Weyr, after the late Admiral Paul Benden. The mission, along with the founding of another 2 Weyrs (a number that by the end of the pass grew to 4 making a total of 6 Weyrs), was to accommodate the growing number of dragons and their riders. Benden Weyr is located within a double volcanic crater on the east coast of Pern near the Northern Barrier Range. Benden Weyr's symbol is a black Roman numeral II centered on a red diamond.
  • Benden Weyr was founded by M'hall and Torene in the middle of the First Pass. Benden was the only occupied Weyr during the Second Long Interval. It was also the source of the cure for the Dragons' Plague in the Third Pass. Benden Weyr was named after Paul Benden, the first leader of the Pern colony, and only person to have any true power over the entire planet, though F'lar and Lessa had effective planetary control at the start of the Ninth Pass.
