Bendra

Bendra was a Dovan Commander aboard a spaceship.
When the Space Garden that produced the spaceship's entire larder of food became contaminated, Bendra and the rest of the crew suffered from food poisoning. The Fourth Doctor accidentally landed on the ship while attempting to visit the planet Maxus. He managed to work out what the crew was suffering from and created a serum which led to their speedy recovery. However, the contamination also caused one of the plants to become mutated and begin attacking the crew. Suddenly, the spaceship was invaded by Space pirates and the Doctor, with the assistance of Bendra, lured the mutated plant towards them. The Space pirates battled with the plant until they were eventually all sucked into the vacuum of space when the Dovan spaceship retreated. Bendra and the others were grateful for the Doctor's help but feared for their survival until they reached their colony as their entire food stock was contaminated, so the Doctor presented them with his entire stock of Vitamin capsules before bidding them farewell.
