In Final Fantasy who is aerith

she the stereotypical female damsel-in-distress for Final Fantasy VII. She's actually called 'Aeris" in the original game. She's the last known survivor of a group of people called the 'ancients', who are direct descendants of some alien who crashed onto the planet called Geneva. I actually think Sephiroth is also an ancient, but then again that's why i said known. Known to ME haha.
