Vetalian interiors are almost always exceptionally lavish and opulent, reflecting the wealth and status of their owners. They are also often bedecked with technological devices, some used for little more than show.


Gadget style: Vetalian devices are usually streamlined, geometric, and exceptionally powerful even for mundane tasks, if only to show off Vetalian engineering skills.
National colours: White, Gray, Black

I don't RP, but I run this nation for the sole purpose of tormenting its citizens. Too bad that, in NS, you can do whatever you want and they act like little sheep. It's kind of like corrupt Roman government on acid.
