Band Members
Balasi Sur
Female - Krona
The founder and lead vocalist of the all-female Krona band, Daughters of Ur, Balasi Sur has a relentless drive for getting her music to the galaxy's ears. Daughters of Ur has been on a sector-wide tour for over forty years, making it one of the longest-running tours of all time. Balasi has stated in interviews that she wants to die while touring. The band's sound and concepts are kept reliable by her steady presence, even while other band members rotate in and out of the group.
Zakiti
Female - Krona
Zakiti is the latest member in a long line of kithdrummers for the Daughters of Ur, and clearly states that she was attracted to the group for the possibility of fame and fortune. Her father is reportedly a famous cook on Gunurash III who expects equally great things of his daughter, though nobody has been able to figure out who he is.
Ni Kissare
Female - Krona
This traditional instrumentalist has been touring with the "Daughters" for almost as long as Balasi Sur, and her choir drones are famous for giving the group its signature epic, multi-faceted sound. Her abilities to create the most unique and unlikely soundscapes with her drones have been studied by sound engineers and masters of robotics for her innovative techniques.
Kishar Bibi
Female - Krona
Kishar Bibi turned to music making after her taste for violence soured when her mercenary platoon was slaughtered in the Ixsei Desert. She is rabidly hateful towards anyone not a member of Scatterhome, and refuses to tour inside space controlled by the other two factions.
Lawita Lipit
Female - Krona
Lawita Anu was a librarian from the village of Uryet when Balasi Sur stumbled across a sample of her bass guitaring on the commsphere. Impressed by the young librarian's skills, the lead vocalist reached out to Lawita, asking if she'd like to join the band. Lawita's acceptance was enthusiastic, though most gossip columnists agree that her tenure in the Daughters will be temporary.
