Setting
This is an AU/Crossover RP. It takes place shortly after the end of Final Fantasy VII, and two years before Advent Children is set.
Jenova has been defeated, and her prodigy, Sephiroth, sent to his grave. However, in the aftermath of war, other problems are quickly shoving their way to the forefront. A new epidemic, the Geostigma, is spreading through out the nations.
In Midgar, the concentration of the infected is higher than anywhere else. Combined with the after effects of a brutal war, spearheaded by Midgar's large rest cooperation, Shinra, the city is in rapid decline and unable to care for its population. Orphans roam the streets, many infected with the deadly disease, while in the surviving upper sectors, the upper class continues on with forced oblivion to the situation. Even as Midgar economically collapses, they struggle to maintain status and wealth, while outsiders find new inroads into controlling the city.
Shinra itself seems largely absent from the overall scheme of things, though the cooperation is known to be rebuilding and trying to reestablish its reputation in a now distrustful world. But without the energy of the Lifestream, it flounders publicly.

Characters
Though set in the FFVII/Advent Children universe, the Player Characters of this game will be from the anime, Prince Of Tennis. Characters from FFVII/Advent Children will not be available to for game play.
Characters may be from any of the major cities, however the game itself will take place in Midgar.
Character ages should range between late teens to early twenties. Some may be former SOLDIER members, survivors of the war with Jenova, while others are decedents of SOLDIERs and every day people. Shinra has scientists working for them, including a team built around discovering the cause and cures of the Geostigma. There is also an influx of outsiders, from Costa del Sol, the Gold Saucer and other cities, searching for their fortunes in the streets of Midgar.
Geostigma
The Geostigma does not affect every member of the population, only those with some connection to Jenova. Specifically it shows up on members of SOLDIER and their offspring, starting out as a small, blackish-green rash on the skin. The rash is initially mild, dry, and flakes off a blackish powder. It is non-contagious, however this fact is not known at the time. As time progresses, the Geostigma will grow. It will affect different characters at different rates.
The closer a character is to having Jenova's genes in their body -- aka, members of SOLDIER that joined while Jenova's DNA was still being inoculated -- the more severe the effects.
Growth will happen in these stages:
However, the Geostigma is now starting to appear in the public, specifically the children of SOLDIER. Shinra is aware of the link, but says nothing. While they offer to treat some of the surviving family members, the majority of the war orphans in the lower slum sectors go without aid.
Despite the formal denial of involvement, Shinra Corp has established a team of doctors to investigate the Geostigma. Headed by Aoi Hanamura, this five member team treats family members and SOLDIER employees, while searching out the war orphans to gather more information on the cause of the Geostigma. However, without any remaining pieces of Jenova, they're treatments are little more than ways to disguise the pain and delay the eventual, inevitable death.

Growth will happen in these stages:
- Cracking, itching, general irritation
Gradual spreading to a larger area of the body
Open wounds, bleeding, a slight greenish glow
Death [the Geostigma must cover the majority of the body for this to happen]
