Biography
238001.19 – Aria is born in Cyrene City, a former colony world - turned full fledged city-state.
23960x.xx – Aria’s teen years are filled with ever-increasing rebellious acts. It’s clear she is not the sort to follow lockstep with the crowd.
239805.11 – Aria graduates from the colony’s compulsory education system and caps it off with a flight to Earth.
Cyrene City
Founded by Old World blue bloods from Earth who had left to join the brain-child of an eccentric billionaire sometime in the 23rd century – Cyrene Colony became a haven for rich, adventurous industrialists and hard-science geniuses probably more on the crazy side of different than not.
Though plenty of money keeps the colony lavished in excess, the expensive clothing, rare delicacies and grandiose buildings hide the truth; that its polished hallways and glimmering estates are just as dangerous as a frontier slum. The names and faces might be different, might be dressed up prim and proper, but the game is very much the same.
Dynasty
House Falcon didn’t operate as a family so much as a dynasty. An old house from an Old World, Falcon had always aimed for subtle power. Avoiding the scandal of politics and the burden of leadership, the family made its fortune through venture capital. Ever a private family, little has gotten out about their early history, but what is known is that the House was one of the first families to relocate to Cyrene, and wasted no time in instigating schemes anew.
In this place did Zoren and Annabelle Falcon bring two children into the world – their older son Jade and younger daughter Aria. Perhaps two of the most despicable people to suck the air of Cyrene City, Zoren and Annabelle proved absolutely ruthless in their quest of attainment, playing out their roles in the cyclical family play, not unwittingly, but joyfully. Rising to the top of one of Cyrene City’s richest companies, Zoren took the helm of Nexus Systems as CEO ousting his father and older brother. Annabelle had been a ruthless socialite and litigator who had been in business with Zoren’s brother, but developed an affinity for the younger after her colleagues fall from power. The two, bound by rapturous passion and drive toward ascension were wed shortly after Zoren took control of NexSys.
As mother and father to Aria and Jade, their divisive and malicious parenting techniques would result in the cultivation of two very different children who, for the first time in a very long family line, may have the chance to break from tradition and avoid following their parents down the familial path to self destruction. Both refused to follow in their parents footsteps. Aria, for her part, escaped as soon as she could for Earth.
Description
Aria is single by preference and a gambler by passion.
Cunning, intelligent, and determined, the coquette embodied a clash of feminine siren with that of a competent soldier. She has a tendency to be reckless, believing that big rewards are paid only with big risk. She has an almost sociopathic charm to her, a femme fatale sex appeal. Regardless of Aria’s biting sarcasm and strong cynicism, she is nevertheless a very engaging, if aggressive, person. She commands attention and demands it when not given freely, an attitude that has proven abrasive to many while exciting to some.
Aria is tall for a human female with an athletic frame and curves right where they should be. Flat black hair to her shoulders, framing a smooth face and violet eyes. It made for a softer, natural attractiveness – pleasant, even eye-catching at times while not being obnoxiously beautiful. The soldiers’ dress of choice is often a soldiers’ business-casual; her body encased in loose-fit BDU’s and a firm-fitting black T, dog tags dangling from her neck.
Medical History
Aria has several wound markers that have never completely faded. Disruptor burns along the left side of the abdomen, a six-inch knife wound from the waist to inner thy along the left leg, and shrapnel wounds on her right forearm. The most noticeable when dressed, are faint lines along the front of her throat, remnant of an attempted strangulation with cabling during Operation Urban Shark on Vulcan.
Service Record
239807.23 – Aria enlists in the Starfleet Marine Corps. Completing Basic and AIT - infantry, she applies for the Special Forces. Afterwards Aria is assigned to the 58th Force Recon Regiment, 3rd Company “Night Haunters” with the rank of lance corporal and position of crew sniper.
239808.21 – Shortly after Aria is promoted to corporal, the Romulan Star Empire launches a devastating attack on the Federation.
239809.16 – The Night Haunters begin covert missions well behind Romulan lines after Starfleet counter-attacks fail to halt the Romulan advance. During this time Aria attains the rank of Sergeant.
239810.04 – The Night Haunters participate in Operation Strangle, an effort to destroy war supply lines and force the Romulans to rely exclusively on stockpiles. The operation meets with some measure of success but it fails to slow the Romulan advance as stockpile levels are discovered to have been grossly underestimated by Starfleet Intelligence.
239811.13 – Operation Alpine Violet. Night Haunters join a larger task force in an offensive action to recapture the world of Coyopa. The planet’s slow rotation causes long, cold nights and blisteringly warm days. The fighting consists of flashpoints of quick, brutal fighting followed by pauses due to the harsh weather. At great cost the marines achieve ground superiority. Fewer lives are lost to the Romulans than to the megafauna that had gone overlooked during the planning stages of the mission.
239812.19 – The Night Haunters participate in urban combat as part of Operation Nightingale to root out Romulan resistance on Vulcan after Starfleet gains orbital superiority. Many Romulans are left planetside in order to tie up Marine and Allied forces there.

239903.14 – Operation Urban Shark, the last combat operation Night Haunters took part in. The last of the Romulan insurgents are found and killed. Vulcan is declared free of enemy agents. Not long after, a cease fire is reached. Peace negotiations lead to a new treaty and the war ends.

All investigations are handed over to the local JAG office.
240211.22 – Aria is given command of Task Force Ensatus, a temporary team of specialists assembled to execute Operation Blue Blood.
240309.25 – With the completion of Operation Blue Blood and disband of Task Force Ensatus, Aria is promoted to Major and returns as Force Recon company commander aboard the USS Griffin-A. Much of the ships’ undisclosed work takes place along the Cardassian and Breen borders.
240506.09 – By request of Captain Enor, Aria takes an interim command of the marine forces aboard the USS Warrior. Upon arrival, she is given her mission to oversee all security proceedings during a peace delegation with the Alteonians.
240506.18 – The Alteonian peace talks conclude with a signed treaty and the crew of the Warrior is given R&R on the planet Alteon III. While there, Aria and Captain Enor have a private discussion, from one veteran to another, about their mission, as well as the past Romulan Wars.
