Aria was born on Bajor in the city of Hathon. Her family, Oddas, is of the ancient D'jarra, the Va'tello, consisting of Sailors, Pilots, and similar professions. In the tradition of their D'jarra her family has always been one steeped in deep military tradition, going underground during the Occupation rather than surrender or take on other professions. She grew up hearing stories of how her extended family were executed by Gul Pirak during for not showing loyalty. Her father and mother both were members of the Resistance and, later, the Bajoran Militia.
