Series

This scenario is based within the world of Neon Genesis Evangelion, including all it’s lore, characters and nuances

The Evangelions

Evangelion are giant, living artificial human of near-godlike power and are the namesake of the Evangelion Franchise. They are present in nearly every single franchise entry, although their functionality and role can vary greatly depending on the story being told.

Despite being giant humans (in the series' broader definition of the term "human"), Evangelion are often mistaken to be mechanical robots or mecha. As early as Episode 02, Unit-01 is seen without its helmet on, revealing that Evangelion are living organic creatures with cybernetic components grafted onto them. This misconception exists since all the biological parts of the units are covered from head to toe in restraining metal plates that hide their true organic form and because they have pilots who sit in the cockpit-like Entry Plug.

Created from the Seed of Life Adam (with the seeming exception of Unit-01), their massive bodies are formed of Particle-Wave Matter, but their shape appears to be determined genetically rather than through their A.T. Fields since they were born without souls, having their soul inserted in a Contact Experiment with a human being. Evangelions are also incapable of generating an S2 Engine, although Unit-01 later acquires one and Mass Production Evangelions are all equipped with them.

Like the original Adam, an Eva has essentially the same physical form as a normal human, albeit with exaggerated torso/waist proportions and varying head forms. The limbs are identical to human limbs in structure, down to the point of the finger. All Evangelions have red blood, which sprays out of wounds in spectacular fashion.

Like the Angels, Evangelions have regenerative capabilities. It is directly stated that they are capable of regenerating damaged or destroyed organs. Unit-01, in particular, has demonstrated extremely fast, controlled regeneration, including the ability to convert foreign biomass to its own. Likewise, Evangelions can lose their limbs or even their head and have them reattached later. Despite being extremely massive, the Evangelion are extremely capable of acrobatic feats like drop-kicks and enormous spinning leaps into the air. The units extreme agility and speed allow for a great amount of movement in combat allowing the units to effectively use melee weapons and close range arms.

As the Evangelion were designed with combat in mind, they have a wide variety of conventional and non-conventional combat options and capabilities. For built in systems, each unit is equipped with a computerized targeting system, radar and sonar. These systems exist to support the pilot and enable them to use weaponry effectively in combat.

The most common weapons used by the Evangelion are the Pallet Rifle, an Evangelion sized assault rifle, and the Progressive Knife, a small vibrating knife capable of cutting through angels. The Evangelion armory isn't limited to these two weapons, however, and the weapons used by the units almost always varies from fight to fight. As previously mentioned, each units can also generate an A.T. Field. While it is often used defensively, its most common usage is offensively to erode the A.T. Fields of Angels by canceling their wavelength.

NERV

NERV (German for "nerve") is a special organization that was put together to combat the Angels after the Second Impact and is the organization responsible for the creation of the Evangelions. Purpose: NERV is a paramilitary organization tasked with operating the Evangelions (giant bio-mechanical mechas) to combat the Angels. These Evangelions are piloted by teenagers, including the series' protagonist, Shinji Ikari. Headquarters: NERV's main headquarters is located in Tokyo-3, a futuristic city specifically designed to withstand attacks from the Angels. The HQ is deep underground, in a massive, fortified complex called the Geofront.

NERV is led by Gendo Ikari, who is a key figure in the series. He has his own secretive agenda, which revolves around the mysterious Human Instrumentality Project—a plan that is gradually revealed as the series progresses.

NERV operates under the United Nations, but it often acts with considerable autonomy. The organization's true objectives and the motivations behind its actions are shrouded in mystery, which is a major theme in the series.

The Evangelions are biomechanical mechas that were not entirely created by NERV alone. They are actually derived from beings known as "Angels," specifically from the first Angel, Adam. The process of creating the Evas involved a combination of cloning technology and biomechanical engineering. Much of this technology and knowledge came from SEELE, a secretive organization that oversees NERV and has its own mysterious agenda.

So, while NERV manages, maintains, and uses the Evangelions, the origin of these mechas is deeply tied to SEELE, Adam, and the mysterious events surrounding the Second Impact.

NERV is portrayed as a well-funded organization, given its role in defending humanity from existential threats (the Angels). It operates massive facilities, such as the Geofront and the Evangelion units, which would require significant financial resources. NERV also has access to advanced technology and military-grade equipment, further suggesting a considerable budget.

Other characters;

Rei Ayanami; Rei is a girl with a slender build and pale skin. She has short pale blue hair with bangs centered to the middle and has red eyes. At the beginning of the series, she would sometimes wear a cast on her arm, and a bandage on her eye. She wears the regular school uniform but wears white loafers and black ankle socks instead. Rei is an introverted girl chosen as the enigmatic pilot of Evangelion Unit-00, often also called the First Child among the Evangelion pilots. At the beginning of the series, Rei is a mysterious figure whose unusual behavior astonishes her peers. As the series progresses, she becomes more involved with the people around her, particularly her classmate and fellow Evangelion pilot, Shinji Ikari. She is revealed to be a clone of his mother, Yui Ikari, and Lilith.

Angels;

• 1st Angel, Adam: One of the two seeds of life on Earth, currently an embryotic organism protected under NERV supervision. It is the progenitor of all angels excluding Lilins.
• 2nd Angel, Lilith; The other seed of life on Earth, also imparted by the First Ancestral Race. It is the progenitor of all humans, which originated from it’s Primordial Ooze (aka blood). While Adam’s children bears the “Fruit of Life,” Lilith’s bears the “Fruit of Knowledge.”
• 3rd angel, Sachiel (dead); Sachiel's appearance is tall, thin, and humanoid, it is slightly larger than an Evangelion, and functions both on land and in water.
• 4th angel, Shamshel (dead); Shamshel is a roughly Evangelion-sized cephalopod-like Angel capable of transforming between a horizontally oriented "flight form" and a vertically oriented "combat mode". Its offensive weapons are two long, glowing, pink energy-tentacles.
• 5th Angel, Ramiel (dead); A large, reflective blue octahedron. That’s it. It shoots lazers by warping itself into strange geometric forms.
• 6th Angel, Matarael (yet to attack); Matarael is a gigantic opilinoid-like entity, with four immensely large legs (which are taller than most skyscrapers) and a relatively small body core. The many "eyes" on Matarael's central body are not actual eyes, but a camouflage pattern using mimicry to confuse its enemies, although the central eye at the bottom of its body appears to be real and functional, providing it with the sense of vision. The Angel secretes orange-colored corrosive acid from this central eye, which can burn through anything. Matarael was found
• 7th Angel, Ananiel; A gigantic sphere of water held by the strongest A.T. Field documented by NERV. It’s core is visible from it’s crystal clear form, and it’s only means of attacking Tokyo-3 is flooding it slowly, suffocating the GeoFront beneath by blocking out ventilations with water. The water surprisingly tastes mildly sweet (because it’s lead. it’s blood has 1.21% lead.)
• Lilin; Lilith’s only angel—they’re not one singular entity like Ramiel or Adam’s angels, rather, they’re life on Earth itself. All traces back to Lilith, just that humans are the most closely related to Lilith, hence renamed Lilin. They are a large number of imperfect entities, bearing the Fruit of Knowledge instead of the Fruit of Life.

aeeerrghh i’m no damn tsunderes damn it
