Bakara

Bakara is both the Krogan representative on the Council and viaha of Tuchanka. 
=== Early Life ===
Like many female krogan, the genophage caused Bakara to have many miscarriages. Galvanized by all the death, she surrendered her name and undertook the rite to become a shaman. She was locked in a cave with enough food to sustain her for a week and then was forced to try to dig her way out in complete darkness. Though she initially was digging the wrong way, she found a crystal shard which helped her dig her way to freedom.
When Mordin Solus' former assistant Maelon Heplorn came to Tuchanka, riddled with guilt over their repair of the genophage and determined to cure it, Bakara was one of the female krogan to volunteer to undergo the experiments needed to form a cure. 
== Mass Effect 3 ==
Bakara was one of successfully cured three females captured by STG after Shepard shut down the experiments on Tuchanka due to their barbarism. Because of their poor condition, they were brought to Sur'Kesh for treatment and further study. The STG brought Mordin on to the project out of retirement due to his familiarity with the genophage. While there, Mordin leaked their existence to Urdnot Wrex. 
Wrex, in turn, insisted the krogan females be released and the genophage cured before the krogan assisted the turians in the Reaper War effort. Shepard and War-Primarch Victus backed Wrex up, and Dalatrass Linron was forced to order their release. Once on Sur'Kesh, Shepard and her team were forced to fight Cerberus troops and rescue Bakara. Unfortunately, the other two females did not survive and Bakara was severely weakened due to the cure. After they escaped to the Normandy, Mordin used tissue from her, Wrex, and data earlier saved from Maelon's experiments to synthesize a cure. Bakara and the cure galvanized the krogan people. After distributing the cure on Tuchanka via the Shroud and Mordin's sacrifice, Bakara insisted her first child be named in his honor.
When Wrex came to Earth with his legion of krogan, he left Bakara in charge of Tuchanka. He later said that he trusted her to keep the people there in line better than he would himself.
== Every One That Asketh ==
After reactivating the mass relays, the Normandy paid a visit to Tuchanaka. While there Bakara sat down with Shepard and told her that the krogan needed and deserved a second chance in form of a terraforming capsule to repair the damage done to the planet. She went on to say that the krogan would win it all or lose everything this time; if they didn't have hope for the future of their people the krogan would be impossible to contain and would need to be wiped out entirely.
When the new Council with representatives from every willing species was formed, Bakara became the krogan Councilor. She placed pressure on Valern and the Salarian Union for a terraforming capsule on behalf of her people, says that her people were done being cannon fodder. When Sparatus relayed that the Turian Hierarchy had discovered a terraforming capsule, but in the spirit of reparations to the krogan people Primarch Vakarian had ordered it be given to the krogan, Bakara accepted the gesture with gratitude and humility. 
On February 29th, 2188 Wrex and Bakara welcomed their twin sons Din and Mor into the world.
