Oddas Aria: Difference between revisions

As an adult Aria will admit she was not an easy child to parent.  She would often disappear for a day or more at a time scavenging for parts for one project or another and would often discard rules she felt served no purpose.  She often would make little to no attempt to try and reconcile with her parents after such infractions, leaving her parents feeling helpless.  She never considered herself a rebel, but never understood the need to conform to what others were doing, especially when what they are doing was dumb.

; <span id="Ijo">Ijo Alea</span> : A girlfriend, Bajoran, who had planned to attend Starfleet at the same time as Aria.  During a hike the year before they were scheduled to leave for the academy Alea as crushed under a rock slide during a hike.  Aria's family had hoped, not secretly, that Ijo's death would weaken Aria's desire to go to Starfleet, but the opposite happened.  Alea had planned to go to the academy alongside Aria and unbeknownst to Aria's parents the couple had exchanged betrothal bracelets in the days leading up to Ijo's death.  When her parents pressured to stay on Bajor after the death, Aria realized that her desire to go was stronger than ever.

; Ijo Cada : The mother of [[#Ijo Alea|Ijo Alea]], and someone who had stepped in as sort of a 'surrogate' mother figure to Aria after the death of Alea.  Aria calls her 'Mother Cada' and is more likely to write her or visit her when thinking of home.   

When on Bajor she mostly relied on friends to get her 'out of the house', but with the death of [[#Ijo|Alea]] and going to the academy, she became more reclusive.  She is awkward around people, sometimes speaks before thinking fully and often babbles when nervous.  She will socialize when pushed, either by friends or duty, but will not generally go out of her way to do so on her own.

On [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sb118-embassy/-UBb5I_Xd58 Stardate 239403.12] Aria was in the [[Typhon Expanse]] assisting in the testing of the new [[TSD]].  During the [[The_Lost_Son_of_Leto_(Embassy_of_Duronis_II)|mission]] her ship and crew came under attack by several Borg drones and during the ensuing confrontation Aria was shot in the arm while protecting a [[Laudean]] scientist. The shot caused extensive damage to her right arm and the normal course of treatment would have been the replacement of her right arm and shoulder. Due to a rare genetic marker in her body she is unable to accept cloned tissue and she was fitted with a prosthetic by [[Boris_Hendon|Dr Boris Hendon]].  As of the current stardate faux skin and other aesthetics have not been fitted over the prosthetic.
