The '''''Kiaria''''' was a ''[[Lola I]]''-class destroyer in service with the [[Draconis Combine Admiralty]] during the [[First Succession War]] as the DCS ''Kiaria''. An active participant in the massive invasion of the [[Federated Suns]] that began early in the War, the ''Kiaria'' had the misfortune to be lost in action against the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] during the prolonged naval action in [[2790]] that led up to the climactic [[Battle of Cholame (2788)|Battle of Cholame]].<ref name="FSWp41A">''First Succession War'', p. 41-42, "Cholame"</ref>

The [[AFFS]] naval action was a desperate attempt to halt the invasion in its tracks before [[New Avalon]] could fall to the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]], whose forces were rapidly closing on the Federated Suns capital. Assembling the bulk of the surviving AFFS [[WarShip]] fleet plus escorts, [[Admiral]] [[Kenneth Jones]] and [[Vice Admiral]] [[Marjorie Stone]] divided the fleet into two large groups, with the first group - led by Jones - due to strike at the [[Imbrial III]], [[Kestrel]], [[Saltural]], [[Saunemin]], [[Acoma]] and [[New Valencia]], while Stone's fleet struck at [[Evansville]], [[Bogard]], [[DeWitt]], [[Blandinsville]] and [[Corydon]], before the two fleets converged at [[Cholame]] in anticipation of further strikes into the remains of the [[Draconis March]]. The fleets only lingered in each system for a week, concentrating on DCA naval assets as targets before jumping out, in an effort to destroy the Combine's ability to support further attacks into Federated Suns by eroding their local aerospace superiority.<ref name="FSWp41A"/>
