Meet the people inside the Kingdom!~
For the understanding of the CDs and Revo, you can see the guide made by briar! Here and here! First of all, you really need to see those guides to understand this one, since this one is only about the other members!
So, new laurant, it’s a great pleasure to see a new person on our beautiful and adorable kingdom! I really wish you don’t just like Sound Horizon, but also LOVE it!
So… we are going to start with one of the most important members, Aramary!
Mariko Arai (Aramary)
Blog: http://aramari.com
Aramary is the first female singer and narrator of the band.
She joined Sound Horizon on 2002, in the second story CD called Thanatos, where she sang all the songs alone. On Lost, Chronicle 2nd and Elysion, she made almost all of the voices, even of the little male kids and old women.
She left sanhora after the Elysion live and no one really know why she left, but apparently, there had some little internal fight at that time.
After she left, she joined Rain Note and some other bands doujin, like Kimi no Museum.
She made a plent of characters, so sorry… I can’t name them all.

She is known for her doujin works with Maple leaf and other bands, also with kukui (Rozen Maiden endings) and ALSO with game songs, like Atelier Iris. She also is a fan of the “Tales of” series.
She first joined Sanhora in Lost and made a collaboration CD with Revo, called 01 - Schwarzweiß ~Kiri no Mukou ni Tsunagaru Sekai~ (which is the opening of Atelier Iris Grand Phantasm).

Rikki first joined Sound Horizon in the CD Leviathan.
She started as a “traditional singer” as a kid and with 15 years old, she gained the All Japan Miyo, being one of the youngest singers to gain one. She also sang “Suteki Da Ne” from Final Fantasy X.
She is also known in the band as “Rikki-maman” because of her character in Roman.
In Roman, she sang Honoo and 11-moji no message, making Hiver’s mother.
In Seisen no Iberia, she was one of the Gitano Sisters, Saranda.
Unfortunately, she didn’t join the other CDs… When Moira was going to be produced, she was in Amami… because she was pregnant of twins (which is a cute coincidence XD)
One of her videos out of Sound Horizon:
