Ista Weyr's History
This page represents a history of Ista Weyr, both in the books or canon and also on the game itself. All players are welcome to include items for any major Weyr events (such as hatchings), TPs that affected the Weyr as a whole, etc. If the IC date can be included, that would be awesome, but RL dates are fine if that's all that people have available.

Canonical History
Bear in mind that it's very likely that much of Pern is not ICly aware of the details of these events, even stuff that happened in the 9th Pass. Lists of names are possible, most likely for names of high-ranking individuals, but in general, we as players will know more of Ista's book-given history than our characters will. Also, as with any books written about Pern's history after the discovery of Landing do not count and their events should not be included here, as PernMUSH's history diverged then.
- First Pass, Turn 28 - Ista Weyr's site is selected, but it's founded later.
- Second Pass - D'miel and bronze Ronelth are the Weyrleader pair. Laura is the Weyrwoman.
- Third Pass - C'rion is Weyrleader and he and his bronze Nidanth die in Threadfall. Dalia is Weyrwoman with gold Bidenth. J'lantir, rider of bronze Lolath, succeeds as Weyrleader.
- Sixth Pass, Turn 22 - Revered queenrider Moreta is searched from Keroon and Impresses gold Orlith at Ista Weyr. She would eventually transfer to Fort Weyr.
- Sixth Pass, Turn 42 - The Plague, many riders die due to it at all Weyrs, including Ista. F'gal, rider of bronze Sanalth, is Weyrleader. Wimmia, rider of gold Torenth, is Weyrwoman. Fort Weyr's Moreta dies whilst returning from her last vaccine delivery through the holds of Keroon. The Ballad of Moreta's Ride is commissioned, although it deliberately changes common knowledge of events by listing Moreta as having ridden Orlith on her trek, rather than Leri's Holth.
- Eighth Interval/Second Long Interval, Turn 1 - D'ram and Fanna are Weyrleader and Weyrwoman when Lessa times it from the Ninth Pass. They lead Ista's entire population of dragonriders, dragons, and support staff to the future, and Ista Weyr remains abandoned.
- Ninth Pass, Turn 1 - Ista Weyr is repopulated by the Oldtimers once they arrive from the beginning of the Long Interval with Lessa of Benden Weyr.
- Ninth Pass, Turn 14 - Fanna dies, and D'ram resigns as Weyrleader. G'dned's bronze Baranth flies Cosira's Caylith in an open flight to determine Ista's new Weyrleader. T'kul's bronze Salth of High Reaches tries to fly in the open flight but dies, and Masterharper Robinton has a heart attack during the subsequent fight between F'lar and T'kul.
