Basic Plot Outline
After the Owl Suppression Operation that shook the 20th Ward, Tokyo had seemingly gone quiet. Organized crime pertaining to Ghouls started to drop significantly with the disappearance of Aogiri Tree, the Clowns, Black Dobers, and the Apes. Many other gangs and organizations seemed to simply fade away from the media. The general public had many different takes on the circumstances. Some seen it as a stroke of good luck, perhaps the Ghouls simply decided to move on to other interests, while others, such as the CCG, are anxious and are awaiting the predicted 'come back' of large scale Ghoul activity in the city with weapons drawn.
It has been two years since the drop in large scale activity, and life for the millions of citizens of Tokyo goes on. The CCG's agents are now a rare sight in many of the Wards which incidents were common place, the cities rather lax attitude now even beginning to spread to the Ghoul underworld. Though things are going smoothly on a physical sense, there is a new problem starting to affect the populous. A new strain of influenza has been identified in the less wealthy districts of Tokyo has local medical personal baffled. The strain appearing to be completely foreign to the country as a whole, and in extreme cases, deadly to both human and Ghoul alike. Medical professions all over the world are scrambling to find a solution as the city undergoes quarantine.
But, it seems that a solution has been found. The doctors of Tokyo praising the power of medical science to bring a vaccine for the flu dubbed 'Death's Hand' to the masses. The vaccine is quickly being distributed throughout the affected Wards with amazing results. Those treated are seeing no symptoms even while inhabiting infected zones, and those with early signs of the virus are beginning to fight off the flu with the immunity boost. It seems that the would-be crisis will soon be averted.
However, that isn't the end of the pandemic. The Ghouls of Tokyo are beginning to notice a horrific trend with the closing of 'Death's Hand's influence. Hundreds of Ghouls are dying from heart attacks in the streets, and the causes are completely unknown. Many suspected it to be an after affect of the influenza, but that is soon proven false when those who had never shown signs whatsoever drop dead.
The virus crisis is averted for the humans, but what will be the fate of the cities Ghouls?
Details
This RP would take place after the events of the Tokyo Ghoul anime's second season, due to my little experience with the Tokyo Ghoul manga. I just find it would be easier to tell a story in that sort of canon. That doesn't mean elements are limited to only the anime though, some settings and groups from the manga may be hinted at or included. However, this RP's story will have little to no ties with any of the plot elements or events of the anime or manga. It is meant to be it's own original venture in the universe with unique characters and events, so it will not feature any canon characters.
