ASALIERI'S PROFILE

She was LEGAL when I met her, nuff' said.

Nick, AIM me when you get the chance.

I'd go with Karaoke Revolution, as I can actually sing.

Which would you rather be forced to watch while tied to a chair with rope and no hope of escape: Barney the Dinosaur, Tay Zonday or the Badger Snake Mushroom flash animation loop?

Veriag

Veriag is a city in the southern extreme of the Embrian territory of Xeitas, on the edge of the Great Market Road which leads from the capital of the empire to Ferien.
Veriag is also the name of the plains that surround it.

It is one of the largest cities in that territory at over 100,000 inhabitants. It has an agricultural economy based principally in cattle ranching and raising crops. The city is also a regional commercial center, serving approximately 12 municipalities. The city had its origin as a crossroads, and has always maintained its character as a place that draws entrepreneurs from other regions. Major expansion of industry in the area, combined with the growth of tobacco plantations, has adversely impacted small-scale agriculture in the surrounding rural areas, resulting in declining population in those rural areas. Veriag also has a busy commercial district and the economy has devoleped a lot lately thanks to the migration of the population from all the surrounding towns.
It has been said that since ancient times, the Embrian kings always demanded the finest tobacco from the farmers of Veriag, as such, a yearly festival of tobacco is held to determine which plantation had the best crop that year. It is also considered a strategic location, and great measures have always been taken to protect it from other empires.
