Baenre was seated again and calm, or as calm as she would ever be.
Though Matron Baenre was the chief matron of the city, she did not care about the lesser houses and had no idea what rank this house held or anything else about it.

  Noble Houses of Menzoberranzan
Baenre: The most powerful noble house in the city, House Baenre dominates its trade, politics, military (its forces are reputed to be able to match any other 5 nobles houses combined), and even the schools (with the heads of both Sorcere and Arach Tinilith members of the house).
The house is known for its use of a formal dueling code and, under its current weaponmaster, the adoption of the falchion sword and hook fauchard as its favored weapons.
House Tiamyn deals openly with any house without favoritism and as such is thought to either be free of influence by greater houses or is controlled by House Baenre who keeps them neutral and honest in order to avoid massive disruption among the city's houses.

 Ursis' Tale of The Drow
House Millithor was alone, because their protector, House #1, Baenre, was a shrewd judge of the city’s mood and knew that the whole city was jealous and afraid of House Millithor’s Wild Magic, obtained from the Gold Dragons on their first visit.
House Baenre (#1 house) had attuned a whole army of drow with their weapons and armor to the air ring enabling them to exist on the surface without penalty or without their equipment being destroyed.
House Millithor made it look as if they had slaughtered all the Ashmen, but in reality had secretly found for them an underground sanctuary with plenty of water so they could sit the whole thing out and then return to the surface if they wished after the Drow had left.

Matron Baenre has principle say in the dispositon of both surviving nobles and surviving soldiers of defeated drow houses and the only one who could offer a check to balance her decisions is that of the matron Mistress of the drow academy (also controled by house Baenre).
All in all house Baenre seems to be an impregnable fortress, fortified with powerful magical wards, manned by an army of superbly trained superbly armed and armored drow warriors.
She is the oldest in-house daughter (second behind triel) and she aspires to heights of greatness that matron baenre would never allow her to achieve.

Drizzt was born to the tenth noble House of Menzoberranzan, Daermon Na'shezbaernon (more commonly known as House Do'Urden).
Drizzt then spent some years in the Underdark, during which he was enslaved by mind flayers and then had to fight Zaknafein again, who had been made undead by Malice to find Drizzt.
For Malice's failure to use Zaknafein to kill Drizzt, Lolth decreed that house Do'Urden should be destroyed, and House Baenre (the most powerful house in Menzoberranzan) did just that, with only Vierna and Dinin (Drizzt's older brother) surviving.
