R'mart was the Oldtimer Weyrleader of Telgar Weyr in both the Eighth Pass and Ninth Pass. His dragon was bronze Branth.
Biography[]
R'mart returned with Lessa to the Ninth Pass during her infamous trek between. Even though R’mart and G'narish, of Igen Weyr, were the youngest of the Oldtimers, and least set in their ways, they tended to side with their contemporaries in most affairs against F'lar and T'bor. Over time, they became sympathetic of some of F'lar's suggestions. Then, after F'lar's duel with T'ron, when F'lar called out, "Do you support Benden?," R'mart and G'narish indicated their willingness to stand by F'lar.
After being scored by threadfall, his weyrmate Bedella overdosed him with numbweed powder. R'mart later learned that it had not occurred to Bedella to send messengers to anyone. Since the Wing-second had heard R'mart tell Bedella to send the messengers, he assumed that the relevant people had been informed.
After R'mart retired as weyrleader of Telgar, J'fery became the new weyrleader after his bronze Willerth flew Palla's gold Talmanth. R'mart and Bedella then moved to the Southern Continent.
Inconsistency[]
In 'The People of Pern' section of Dragonflight, Dragonquest & The White Dragon, Branth is listed as both the bronze dragon of R'mart from Telgar Weyr and the brown dragon of T'gran of Benden Weyr.
The Dragonlover's Guide to Pern lists the same R'mart - bronze Branth and T'gran - brown Branth connections.
