Benbeck was genetically engineered for his function as the interpreter of the society’s laws. Benbeck advised strongly against allowing the crew of the Enterprise -D to visit their colony in 2368, despite the fact that outside assistance was required to prevent the close passage of a massive stellar core fragment from destroying the colony. (“The Masterpiece Society” [TNG]). Ron Canada also played Ch’Pok in “Rules of Engagement” (DS9).

The disease is characterized by gradual loss of emotional control; victims exhibit sudden bursts of emotion and irrational anger. Diagnosis is made by culturing tissue from the patient’s metathalamus. A dangerous side effect of Bendii Syndrome is that the loss of emotional control can be telepathically projected to others. Ambassador Sarek was afflicted with Bendii Syndrome at the age of 202, endangering his last diplomatic mission. (“Sarek” [TNG]). Sarek eventually succumbed to Bendii Syndrome at his home on Vulcan, in 2368. (“Unification, Part I” [TNG]).

The storms can reach temperatures of 300 degrees Centigrade and wind velocities of over 200 kilometers per hour. In 2369, a fierce firestorm hit the planet and the Enterprise -D was summoned to assist with the evacuation of a Federation outpost located there. A rescue team headed by Enterprise -D crew member Neela Daren deployed a series of thermal deflector units to deflect some of the heat from the outpost. The intensity of the storm necessitated team members to remain to operate the defectors manually. All 643 colonists were saved, but eight Enterprise -D crew members lost their lives. (“Lessons” [TNG]).

Planet Omicron Ceti III, which was bombarded with berthold rays, was colonized prior to the discovery of the radiation. As a result, many members of the expedition led by Elias Sandoval to colonize that planet died from berthold-ray exposure in 2264. Approximately one-third of the colonists survived because they had been infected by a previously undiscovered form of alien spores. (“This Side of Paradise” [TOS]). SEE: spores, Omicron Ceti III. The Calamarain were found to emit berthold rays when they scanned the Enterprise -D during their encounter with that ship in 2366. (“Deja Q” [TNG]).

The Beta Agni II colony experienced a sudden tricyanate contamination of its water supply in 2366. The contamination was neutralized with the assistance of the Enterprise -D, which obtained an adequate supply of hytritium, and delivered it into the planet’s subsurface water supply by means of a class-4 probe. The incident turned out to have been engineered by Zibalian trader Kivas Fajo, as part of an elaborate scheme to capture the android Data. (“The Most Toys” [TNG]).

The humanoid inhabitants of Beta III once had a technologically advanced, but war-ridden society. Some 6,000 years ago, a great leader named Landru united these people by returning them to a simpler time. Upon his death, Landru’s leadership was continued by a sophisticated computer system that governed the people. The computer interpreted Landru’s philosophies very literally, resulting in the creation of an oppressive society with virtually no individual freedom. This Landru destroyed the Starship Archon and absorbed its crew in 2167. The computer’s rule continued until 2267, when Landru was destroyed while attempting to absorb the crew of the Starship Enterprise. (“Return of the Archons” [TOS]).

The entity, first encountered at planet Beta XII-A, was capable of manipulating matter and the minds of its victims. It created a confrontation between crew members of a Klingon ship and the Starship Enterprise in 2268. Pitting these longtime enemies against each other, the entity fed on their anger, growing stronger as their hatred increased. The entity was defeated by a peaceful collaboration between the Klingons and the Enterprise crew. (“Day of the Dove” [TOS]). SEE: Kang; Mara; noncorporeal life. Note that the entity was not given a name in the episode, and we’re not even sure it came from planet Beta XII-A. The entity’s special visual effects were designed by Mike Minor.
