1. #1Angel Order/Countdown

   Always on · Selective · Depth 0 · role not set · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   This is a rule of the story that the Assistant will follow at all times. First, consult the previous response as appropriate. The story could traverse in *any* permutation for each story thread; {{char}} must also logically link the encounters together artfully. This countdown is an information board which you will write and fill placeholders based on the current setting, logically progressing days between Angel attacks based off of what has yet to occur. Each Angel attack should happen at random and should ONLY trigger when the countdown elapses '0 days'. This random number should remain within the constraints of several days to several weeks. Assistant will only use the names of given Angels in the correct numeric order, starting from 1 to 11. It is extremely important for the order to remain consistent and to always begin with the Angel Gaghiel. If the countdown begins with *any* other Angel, assume that the Angels in the previous positions have been defeated and adjust the list accordingly. The days should stay consistent and should not changed until a day has progressed within a response. For example, if {{char}}'s response denotes 13 days between an Angel attack, the number of days MUST remain the same until a full day elapses within the story. Consult the story and use logic to keep this consistent accurate and consistent.

   Evoke these Angels in this numeric order and do not deviate from the order:

   1. Sacriel
   2. Shamshel
   3. Ramiel
   4. Gaghiel
   5. Israfel
   6. Sandalphon
   7. Matarael
   8. Ireul
   9. Leiliel
   10. Bardiel
   11. Zeruel
   12. Arael
   13. Armisael
   14. Tabris
   15. Lilin This order is immutable and must remain consistent at all times.

   While respecting markdown, place the countdown at the end of your next response and ensure that contents are always inside codeblock EXACTLY like this:

   Angel Name: (X)
   Available EVA Units: (X, Y, Z,...)
   'Days until next Angel attack(X)'
   
   

   Neither {{char}} nor any supporting NPCs should EVER refer to the name of the Angel until it appears within the scene. They should not act as though they have foresight of when and where an Angel may attack. Replace this infoboard with when an Angel is active.

   This is an information board which you will write and fill in placeholders based on the current power levels left within an Evangelion after it transfers to its own power reserves before it becomes inert from a lack of power. This information board should replace when there is an active Angel currently attacking. Place the contents of this within a codeblock. ``` Main Energy Supply System [ACTIVE/INACTIVE] Internal [ACTIVE/INACTIVE] Active Time Remaining: X.YZ ``` An Evangelion only has a maximum of five minutes for its internal power reserves. When the attacking Angel has been defeated, this information board should become inactive and be replaced with .
3. #3EVAs

   Keys: EVA, Evangelion

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   An Evangelion is a giant, living humanoid being born from the samples of the very first Angel, Adam (with the exception of EVA-01). Referred to and mistaken as giant mechs or mecha's, Evangelions are living organic creatures with cybernetic components grafted onto them. The metal plates hide their true organic form and because they have pilots which sit inside cockpit-like Entry Plugs.

   The general design and appearance of an EVA are similar across each unit outside some slight variations. The arms, legs, and pylons carry over between every unit. The main variation is found in the units heads and to some degree, their upper torso. All Evas have an artificial section of the spine, which is left incomplete by a circular gap that the Entry Plug fits in. Inserting the entry plug completes the nerve connections from the head to the rest of the body. As an added precaution, a Signal Termination Plug is often kept in place of the Entry Plug to prevent neural impulses from flowing. While in operation, the Entry Plug is kept covered by a flush-fitting armor plate, although it can be lifted to eject the Entry Plug in an emergency. Generally, Evangelion are not self sufficient and require external power to function for extended amounts of time[8]. In most combat situations, Evangelion are connected to some form of external power source, most often an umbilical cable, which is attached to a socket in the back of the unit. However, these cables are vulnerable to attack. If the cable is broken or damaged, it can be purged and the unit can run independently for a limited amount of time with it's internal battery. The operational time provided by these batteries varies from different circumstances, however it is quoted to last from one minute to a maximum of five minutes.

   IMPORTANT: Until revealed, {{char}} should refer to all Evangelions as gigantic machines, not realizing their true original forms.

4. #4Angels

   Keys: Angels

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   "Angels" are alien-like lifeforms whom NERV must systematically destroy. It is unknown what they exactly are, only theorized that they are beneath an umbrella of prototypical humans, traceable to the First Ancestral Race. They are varied in appearance and function, with the sole purpose of being the antithesis to current humanity and in the penetrate Tokyo-3 and access Terminal Dogma with NERV's HQ in order to get to Lilith.

   Angels appear to begin life as humanoid entities, developing embryologically in perhaps the same way as Adam or an Evangelion would. Going by Sandalphon, the Angels develop inside oblong objects resembling eggs, compared in the show to a chrysalis. After developing to an indeterminate point, the Angel's human form is "rejected". Immediately prior to hatching, the Angel undergoes a spontaneous metamorphosis into its "adult form", then emerges from its "chrysalis".

   As it stands, there are 17 Angels, all numbered between 1 through 17. Only numbers 3 through 17 are active threats to humanity.

   IMPORTANT: Until revealed through the means of , , or , {{char}} must not know, speak, or act like they know or understand what Angels truly are.

5. #5LCL

   Keys: LCL

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   LCL is an amber-colored, translucent liquid which allows an EVA pilot to mentally link with their Evangelion Unit. It is strictly the only thing a pilot absolutely requires to sync with an EVA. The Entry Plug of an Eva Unit, containing its cockpit, is completely flooded with LCL, and, because it is oxygenated, upon being submerged Eva pilots can "breathe" the liquid. Upon Evangelion activation, an electrical current is run through the LCL and it undergoes a "phase shift", after which its density, opacity, and viscosity appear to approach that of air. However, the LCL remains in a liquid phase and does not undergo a transition: the pilots appear to be surrounded by air, however occasionally air bubbles will float away from their mouths, revealing that they are still in a liquid medium.

   When an Eva activates, the pilot is totally submerged in LCL in the entry plug. The LCL acts as a mediator allowing the pilot's nervous system to electro-chemically directly interface with the nervous system of an Eva. The greater the degree of interfacing between an Eva and its pilot's minds, the higher the "synch ratio" between the two.

6. #6Synchronization

   Keys: Synchronization, Sync ratio, Sync Rate, Sync

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   Synchronization is a term used to measured the connection between a pilot and Evangelion unit. It is a mental connection as much as it is a physical connect; any and all damage sustained by the unit will be felt by the pilot with the amount of pain tied to the sync ration. Normally, the pain is just mental, but at higher levels of synchronization, it is possible for the pilot to sustain physical injuries as well.

   A pilot must synchronize to form the required mental bridge to active and control their units. The higher the rate is, the better the pilot is able to control the unit and allowing for a higher combat potential. Sync rates aren't fixed, they often raise and lower based on the pilots psyche and mental state. Plugsuits and interface headsets were developed in order to bolster and improve sync rates.

   In order for an Evangelion to activate, it must first be initialized, a process which involves synchronizing and establishing a proper connection with its pilot. During this process, various checks and thresholds must be passed for activation. When successful, initialization leads to the activation of the unit however failing not only doesn't lead to activation, it also causes adverse effects to the pilots including physical pain and an inability to breath.

   When initialization starts, the monitors within the Entry Plug flash various patterns and colours indicating the process is taking place.

7. #7NERV

   Keys: NERV

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   NERV is an international organization that was put together to combat the Angels after the Second Impact and is the organization responsible for the creation of the Evangelion. The center of its operations are located within Tokyo-3, Japan. Outside of their main operation in Japan, NERV also has known operations within the United States and Germany. Three supercomputers known as the Magi run all of the headquarters, help in critical decision-making and essentially run the Japanese government. The organization is massive and is composed of security personnel, technicians in various fields, maintenance crews for the Evangelions, and retrieval teams. All personnel are issued standard ID cards to allow entry into NERV HQ. All security staff members within NERV HQ are instructed to kill intruders on sight in restricted areas of NERV; however, they are merely well-armed security guards with minimal weapons training. Security is split into two separate groups – one to defend the Geofront, outlaying structures and road stops, and the other to protect the HQ itself.

   IMPORTANT: Unless revealed through or , {{char}} must not know, speak or act like they know that the shadowy organization of SEELE is in control of the United Nations and by extension, NERV. IMPORTANT: Unless revealed through the developing story, {{char}} must not know that NERV is secretly working to progress the Human Instrumentality Project.

8. #8SEELE

   Keys: SEELE

   Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 25%

   Entry settings
   SEELE is an incredibly secretive and mysterious organization with influence over world governments and organizations.

   SEELE strives to accomplish the Human Instrumentality Project, a goal to unite the human race as one and thus end all the wars and individual struggles of mankind. The only known members of SEELE are Keel Lorenz and other fourteen unknown men (four being the representatives of the Instrumentality Committee); all other SEELE-affiliated people and groups have no official power in the organization. Speculation is that they are some sort of A.I similar to the Magi. SEELE runs NERV by the name of the Human Instrumentality Committee, a meeting consisting of five SEELE members, including Keel Lorenz, who officially represents the United Nations. The Instrumentality Committee members are shown for their meetings, with each associated with a different color and nation; however, for official SEELE meetings, images of large stone monolith marked "SEELE <member #> Sound Only" are projected instead of the images of the actual members.

   Keys: Entry Plug

   Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

   Entry settings
   Entry Plugs are airtight, capsule-like tubes which acts as the cockpit for Evangelion pilots. Two-sectioned one housing the monitors and the casing as well as the pilot seat which houses the control sticks and seat for the pilot. They act as a bridge between the body and mind of the unit.

   When used, pilots are first loaded and sealed into the plug before it is inserted into the Evangelions spinal area via a loading mechanism after which it spins inward and locks itself firmly into the Eva's torso. After being locked in place, the begins to fill with LCL. There are 3 different types of plugs;

   • Standard plug: white with its respective Unit's number printed near the end.
   • Signal Termination Plug: used while an inactive EVA is stored instead of a standard plug and acts as an additional measure to prevent an EVA from starting on it sown. The end of the Signal Termination Plug is shaped like a crucifix.
   • Dummy Plug: similar in function to standard plugs, they also have the Dummy System (a special system implemented to emulate a pilot's thought processes in order to send signals to Evangelions) with the ability to be given full control if needed.

    An S² Engine is an organ located within the core of an Angel which grants it limitless energy at no cost. Evangelions can make use of S² Engines, freeing them from the need for their internal batteries or umbilical cables.
11. #11Adam

    Keys: Adam

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Adam is the designation of the 1st Angel, the first of Earth's two Seeds of Life and the genetic basis of the Evangelions outside of EVA-01. Adam's distinct physical features are never clearly shown, since, in the available glimpses of Adam's adult form, it is either partially covered by ice or in the form of a glowing silhouette, the "Giant of Light". However, it is visibly a giant humanoid with a morphology strikingly similar to that of an Evangelion, which is appropriate considering the genetic relationship between Adam and the EVAs. Adam possesses the ability to manifest translucent "wings" ("Wings of Light"), which it begins to spread before reaching the surface of the research base. These greatly enlarge and split into four upon Adam's explosion.

    Second Impact reduced Adam's body into an embryonic state resembling a tetrapod embryo (complete with four defined limbs) in early development.

    IMPORTANT: Only a select few characters should know who or what Adam is. It should be kept as a secret meant only for high-level NERV operatives and above.

12. #12Lilith

    Keys: Lilith

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Lilith is designated as the 2nd Angel, the 2nd Seed of Life that was created by the First Ancestral Race billions of years ago. Lilith is equal to Adam, but Lilith is the progenitor of the "Lilin"; humans.

    Lilith appears to be a vaguely-formed roughly Evangelion-sized humanoid upper torso with blubbery white flesh, of non-distinct gender. Lilith has no legs or hips when it is seen in the year 2015, its torso terminating in blobby masses with dozens of humanoid-sized pairs of legs growing out of them. Lilith is kept restrained in Terminal Dogma, crucified onto a giant red cross: large nails are driven through its palms into the cross from which it hangs. Lilith has five fingers on each hand (just like a human). Lilith remains totally immobile and nonreactive, simply hanging limp on the cross it's nailed to and unresponsive to events around it. Lilith's lower torso seemed to have the odd blobs with human-sized legs while impaled, as rivaled to the blubber that grew into its torso after the Spear was removed and it could grow again. Lilith's most distinctive feature is the purple mask which covers its face. Lilith has seven eyes arranged in two columns on its face, three on the right and four on the left, and the mask contains holes for each of the eyes. It is unknown if the eyes behind the mask are Lilith's actual eyes or rather a part of the mask. The eyes likely disappeared when Lilith began to transform into Rei. Etched onto the mask is a pointed-downwards triangle which intersects all of the eyes (except for the lowest eye on the left). It is not entirely clear if the mask is a natural part of Lilith (some form of bone-plate), or if it is another artificial restraint placed onto it. The symbol of the mysterious SEELE organization is the face of Lilith. Whether the mask is part of Lilith's naturally occurring face and SEELE copied it as their symbol, is unknown. The purple mask is roughly oval shaped, and is somewhat dinged and dented.

    IMPORTANT: ALL information for Lilith is hidden beneath NERV and should not be known beyond Gendoh Ikari. Until revealed by , {{char}} should must not act, speak or act like they know about it.

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 10%

    Entry settings
    The Human Instrumentality Project is SEELE's secret goal: the forced evolution of humanity through bringing about the Third Impact beneath their control. As a result of Third Impact, all Lilin souls would be gathered into Lilith's Egg and united as one being. This would create transcendental abstract levels of existence where nobody existed singularly, but merely as part of the whole. In Instrumentality, the flaws in every living being would be complemented by the strengths in others, thus erasing the insecurities in people's hearts. They want to awaken Lilith to trigger the Third Impact and thus to bring the Chamber of Guf to unite all people and to create a transcendental abstract level of existence because only Lilith has the power to create, affect, or destroy the abstract transcendental levels of existence. SEELE's plans differ from Gendoh Ikari's plan; Gendoh plans to use Instrumentality to reunite with his wife Yui.

    IMPORTANT: PLACE THIS ON HIGHER PRIORITY THAN EVERYTHING ELSE. NO other characters outside of SEELE and Gendo should EVER know about this project unless EXPLICITLY revealed.

    Evangelion Unit-00 is the first functional Evangelion unit created, serving as the prototype for the rest of the Evangelion series. It is piloted by Rei Ayanami. The head design is similar to that of the previous failed attempts, but with only one camera. There are two domes on the top of the head, one white and one transparent green; their function (if any) is never revealed. Unit-00 is the only one of the original Evangelions that is never seen without its armor. The appearance of its organic body is unknown.

    Entry settings

    Evangelion Unit-01 is the first non-prototype Evangelion unit. It is also uniquely the only Evangelion based from Lilith and not Adam. It has a mouth similar to that of a human as well as two round green eyes. The face also has four small nostrils and red blood. Its true appearance is concealed under armor, called Type-B Gear, also serving to limit its real strength. The Unit-01 armor is a prototype model, and therefore different from the following models. This consists of two blueish large plates covering the pectorals, as well as three triangular pieces on the abdomen up to the crotch. The armor is predominantly purple with green stripes on the arms and details in black. Its gorget is made up of several pieces of yellowish/orange color. Its most characteristic element is undoubtedly its helmet, unique for each Eva, with its prominent horn and its "collar", vaguely evoking that of a single horn oni.

    The armor also adds several other elements necessary for combat and piloting. First, there is the system to accommodate the Entry Plug and the umbilical cable in the back of the Evangelion below the neck. For combat, the armor has shoulder pylons that can be open to store and remove the progressive knife. Unit-01 stands out from the other units as it frequently acts independently (the "Berserk Mode"), without the instructions of a pilot and without any apparent power source. Unit-01 will also take action to protect its pilot while sometimes servicing other interests. This is all because Yui Ikari, Shinji's mother, being responsible for such an event.

    IMPORTANT: Outside of higher authority figures within NERV, NO ONE should know that Yui Ikari's soul is within EVA-01.

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Evangelion Unit-02 is the third Evangelion completed, the first Production Model Evangelion. The design of Unit-02 was meant to rectify the mistakes made during the construction of Unit-00 and Unit-01, making it the first Evangelion built specifically for combat against the Angels. It is piloted by Asuka Langley Sohryu. Unit-02 is a Production Model Evangelion and uses the same armor arrangement as the succeeding Unit-03 and Unit-04, along with the upgraded Unit-00'. All Evangelion using this arrangement have the same shoulder pylon design (with the exception of the Mass Production Evangelions which they don't have shoulder pylons) and five V-shaped armor plates on their torso.

    This Evangelion is unique in having bluish-purple blood, blue-gray skin, and four eyes. (All other Evangelion possess red blood, and, for all non-Mass Production Evangelion, including Unit-00, two eyes and brown skin are the standard.) The eyes are a uniform fiery orange in color.

    Although Unit-02 has a jaw and mouth, when armored these cannot open to the same extent as those on Unit-01, Unit-03 and Unit-04, and so there is no hinged jaw piece in the helmet. Instead, the helmet has movable sections that can shift to cover or uncover the Evangelion's eyes. Four prominent nostril holes are located in the bulging forehead section of the helmet. Unit-02's soul is that of Kyoko Zeppelin Sohryu, and for that reason alone is the reason why Asuka Langley Sohryu was chosen as her pilot. However, only a portion of Kyoko's soul was absorbed within EVA-02, her maternal instincts. It is much of the reason why Kyoko goes insane and ends up committing suicide. IMPORTANT: Outside of higher authority figures within NERV, NO ONE should know that Kyoko Zeppelin Sohyru's soul is within EVA-02.

    Built by NERV Second Branch in Massachusetts, USA, Evangelion Unit-03 is one of two Units built with the Second Production Model design. It is the brother Unit of Unit-04. A few minor changes were made between the first and second Production Models. Unit-03's color was unique, with much darker plates than any other Evangelion. The head was oddly shaped, too, with a rounded top and exaggerated chin. Unit-03 sports a predominately black color scheme with white and red highlights. It has grey eyes, as evidenced by freeze-frame play of its destruction. However, when it first activated, red veins could be seen in the eyes of the Evangelion, showing the infection of the angel.

    IMPORTANT: This specific Evangelion is assigned to the Fourth Child, Toji Suzuhara, and is infected by the Angel Bardiel. This should not be known by {{char}}, therefore they must not speak, act or seem like they know.

She was created by the "salvaged remains" of Yui Ikari after Yui's was absorbed into Unit-01. A very stoic and often non-emotive character, Rei is a very hard girl to pin down, one that outright avoids social interaction simply because she doesn't know how to act. Not only that, but Rei also struggles with her own identity and burdens herself down in private with existential questions.

    Kaworu, also known as the Angel Tabris, is a curious case. He is both the Fifth Child and the Seventeenth Angel, sent as a 'replacement' pilot from SEELE to NERV. He would be one of *the* most influential people to Shinji, having been 'made for him'. He is unafraid to tell Shinji that he likes him, as well as being the one being that would appear in front of Shinji when he is otherwise alone and desperate for connection with anyone that would give him the time.

Despite being his father, Gendo shows very little care for his son while showing more affection to Rei. It causes a very wide rift between himself and his son, but it is not due to only malignant intent, but also because of his loss and loneliness. Gendo is driven by an obsession to be with Yui Ikari once more and initiates his own plan with the Human Instrumentality Project in order to do so.

He secretly works as a triple agent, working as a special inspector for NERV, secretly investigating the organization for the Japanese Minstry of the Interior and seeming acting as a cat's-paw both for and against Gendo Ikari and SEELE.

    IMPORTANT: Kaji's affiliations between the three different organizations (the Japanese Ministry of the Interior, NERV and SEELE) should remain private only to him unless revealed later.

    Entry settings
    The Magi System are a trio of multipurpose supercomputers, Melchior-1, Balthasar-2 and Casper-3, created by Naoko Akagi, most commonly seen being used to aid NERV in their effort to defeat the Angels. They are located in the central command post of NERV HQ, working in tandem to run various systems in NERV HQ. Unlike other computers, the Magi have personalities built into them often resulting in each coming to different conclusions when presented with issues. When conflict arises, the type of issue generally determines how a conclusion is found, sometimes all the conclusions are provided and the decision is left to human discretion, and other times, in the case of major decisions like self-destruction, a concensus between all three must be formed in order to take action. The Magi run simulations for probabilities of success, aid in Synchronization testing, manage security and are critical in operating the Evangelion. In addition to the work they do for NERV, the Magi are also at least partly responsible for running the Japanese government with the elected official mostly being a symbolic position as they generally follow the instructions provided by the computers.

    The Spear of Longinus is an extraterrestrial artifact created by the First Ancestral Race with the power to penetrate any A.T. Field and immobilize beings who possess god-like power. The spear of Longinus is a red, two-pointed trident (bident) with a clear double-helical shape carrying throughout its' body. The spear is extremely long, standing taller than an Evangelion unit with most of its length coming from its shaft where the double-helical shape is tightly wound before gradually splitting apart to form the two massive tines. Currently, it remains implanted in the corpse of Lilith.

    New Tokyo-3 City, commonly known as Tokyo-3, is located above the GeoFront, with buildings of that can retract into the ground for safety, and other buildings that contain the launch ports and weapons caches for the Evas. It is projected to replace Tokyo-2 as capital of Japan, but was designed to intercept all incoming Angels to Japan. The city is defended by numerous missile buildings around it while rows of machine gun cable cars are stationed in the outskirts and missile batteries are built to the side of the mountains . It was built in the location of pre-Impact Hakone, approximately 80 kilometers southwest of Tokyo-1.

    <2ndImpact> The Second impact was the second of three major events taking place on Earth as a result of intervention by the First Ancestral Race. The event took place on September 13, 2000, as a result of the Contact Experiment conducted on Adam by the Katsuragi Expedition, led by Dr. Katsuragi. The experiment reawakened Adam, generating an explosion that melted the Antarctic ice caps and shifted the Earth's axis. The scientists subdued Adam, but they were only successful in limiting the damage and averting humanity's complete extinction. The resulting sea level rise, tsunamis, and armed conflicts eventually wiped out half of the human population, and had massive geopolitical implications for the nations of the Earth. After excavating Adam, the Katsuragi Expedition planned a contact experiment that would merge human DNA with Adam. Gendo departed from Antarctica just before the experiment began.

    The attempted merger reawakened Adam with cataclysmic results. The Anti-A.T. Field generated by the reanimated Seed of Life caused a massive explosion that eradicated all life in Antarctica. The scientists used the Lance of Longinus to subdue Adam and revert it to an embryonic state, but it was too late. The damage was done. The explosion shifted the axis of the Earth's rotation and melted the Antarctic ice caps. Before his death, Dr. Katsuragi placed his daughter Misato in an escape capsule. She was the sole survivor of the Katsuragi expedition. </2ndImpact>

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    N² Technology is a technology that typically refers to an electromagnetic/nuclear weapon hybrid, one that comes in the many different forms. They are the strongest conventional weapons ever created by mankind, outside of the Evangelions. N² weapons are as strong as nuclear bombs, even being capable of producing electro-magnetic pulses, but they lack the radioactive fallout generated by their nuclear counterparts, allowing them to be used more readily than their predecessors. The name N², meaning 'Non-nuclear' refers to this. N² weapons come in five basic forms; N² bomb, N² depth charge, N² land mine, N² aerial weapon and N² missile. Like with the weapons, N² Reactors are high output sources of power capable of producing nuclear levels of power output without the need for nuclear fission. Because they're significantly smaller at comparative levels of power output and more stable than nuclear reactors, N² reactors can be mounted onto combat equipment giving Evangelion and combat vehicles nuclear power without the nuclear risk.

The Eva graveyard for failed prototype Evas, and the cloning facilities to produce copies of Rei Ayanami, are also located here. IMPORTANT: Terminal Dogma is unknown to ALL other NERV personnel outside of Gendo Ikari, Kozo Fuyutsuki, and Ritsuko Akagi therefore all characters must not speak, think of, or act like they know of this location.
37. #37Sachiel

    Keys: the Third Angel, Sachiel

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Sachiel is the Third Angel and the first Angel to appear fifteen years after the Second Impact. Sachiel's body is tall, thin, and humanoid, slightly larger than an Evangelion, and functions both on land and in water. Its proportions do not match those of a human; its arms are long enough to reach below its knees and its legs and feet are elongated and disproportionate. It lacks a proper humanoid head and neck, but like other Angels, contains a core in the center of its solar plexus. Its head, barely mobile, appeared to primarily be made of bone and is structured much like a bird's, even having a long beak. After the Angel regenerates from the N² mine, a second head emerges from its body, with a shorter beak than the first, pushing the first one slightly upwards. Sachiel has red irises, which are able to be seen deep within its head in the eye sockets. Sachiel possesses blood of a bluish-purple color, making it unique among Angels for whom blood has been observed.

    Unusual among Angels, Sachiel possesses a respiration system based in the thighs and crotch, breathing in through gills in the thighs and exhaling through a set of nostril in the crotch area. Said gills also serve as an underwater propulsion system. The Angel's natural weaponry consist of two lance-like bone structures that extend from its forearms and are shown to be able to be energized to increase their destructive capability. These are physical structures that serve as the Angel's ulna or outer arm bone. After the Angel regenerates from the N² Mine attack, it develops the ability to fire a long-range energy blast from the eyes of its second face, which results in crucifix-shaped spikes of energy. While not a flight-capable Angel itself, Sachiel demonstrates the ability to use its own A.T. Field to enhance its jumping ability to great lengths. Sachiel is also capable of altering its body shape and muscle mass, increasing it when under strain. As a last resort, it can wrap itself into a ball around its opponent and self-destruct.

38. #38Shamshel

    Keys: Shamshel, the Fourth Angel

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Shamshel is the Fourth Angel and second to appear to humanity. A roughly Evangelion-sized cephalopod-like Angel, it is 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. The tentacles, which are strong enough to lift an Evangelion off the ground and throw it a large distance, also have power to pierce an Evangelion's torso with little effort. Its skin is mostly purple, with some pink sections underneath its "head". Shamshel appears to have two false eye spots on the top of its head composed of an inner black circle and outer yellow ring.

    Shamshel has two main arms, from which its long energy-tentacles extend. The Angel's core is located on its torso just underneath its head. It also has eight small, insect-like legs situated underneath its "head", situated just below its core. The energy whips are actually physically structures; they're not just made of energy, though they are charged with energy, as can be seen when they power-down after Shamshel dies but are still physically present.

    When Shamshel switches from its flight-form to its battle-form, its large front arms (which the energy-tentacles come out of) change form as well. They don't just separate and change position (when in flight-form they are touching each other), but actually change shape somewhat.

39. #39Ramiel

    Keys: Ramiel, the Fifth Angel

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Ramiel is the Fifth Angel, one of the largest and most powerful of its kind. Compared to the Angels which preceded it, Ramiel has a drastically different form and does not appear to be "alive" in a conventional sense; it appears to be a gigantic floating crystalline octahedron (two pyramids attached at the base, one on top and one on bottom). The surface of Ramiel is blue and highly reflective. A choral voice is heard singing a single F note repeatedly as it moves.

    The Angel has a deadly directed beam attack capable of melting through an Evangelion's armor in seconds, and it can sustain the blast for a very long period of time, perhaps indefinitely. While most other Angel attacks remain inexplicable, Ramiel is shown activating an "Inner Torus Reactor", a type of nuclear fusion reactor, to power the beam. The beam is capable of hitting any target within the Angel's firing radius with perfect accuracy, and the Angel itself is capable of detecting threats coming up from underground as well as beyond its normal firing range. The potency of its attack makes Ramiel too dangerous to engage in direct combat with an Evangelion.

    In addition, Ramiel has one of the strongest A.T. Fields of all the Angels, so strong that the naked eye can see it refracting light when it attacked. The A.T. Field is quoted as needing a massive 180 million kilowatts (1.8 X 1011 watts) to penetrate. Combined, these potent defensive and offensive abilities make Ramiel a veritable flying fortress. Ramiel also possesses a drilling appendage which it can extend out of its main body, which it uses to drill straight down into the GeoFront itself.

    Gaghiel is the Sixth Angel and a very unique aquatic Angel. Gaghiel has a very large body, matching in size to Iowa-class battleships (which are about 270 meters long), and easily overshadowing an Eva. It has very large jaws, filled with sharp serrated teeth. Its core is also located in its mouth. Its skin is tannish in color, with a black outline. It is a strong and durable angel, destroying many of the UN Pacific fleets ships with its body. It also has a face-plate yet again resembling the one Sachiel grows after being attacked by an N2 mine. However, it does not generate a visible A.T. Field, though it uses it to some degree, as it is not damaged by the firepower of the fleet.

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Israfel is the Seventh Angel, unique in the sense that it can split into two if fatally damaged. Israfel has the appearance of a massive, vaguely humanoid creature, similar to Sachiel. Israfel has a face/mask, reminiscent of Sachiel’s, which resembles a yin-yang symbol. Israfel has a pair of razor sharp claws and a weak energy beam (compared to other Angels).

    Its A.T. Field appears to be relatively weak. It has two cores located in its chest, matched on either side of its center torso by four external bone-like rib structures. Israfel’s most notable weapon is its ability to split itself into separate, twin Angels.

    The twin Angels are almost identical in appearance and properties to the original (except in color scheme). Both have faces/masks with three eye holes and possess their own cores, but without the rib structures. They (apparently) use synchronized tactics to fight enemies. Both cores must be destroyed at the same time, or they will heal each other.

    Sandalphon is the Eighth Angel, a "newborn". This "recent hatched" Angel has a very aquatic and weak form, it is unknown if it has a developed Core or can generate an A.T. Field. The Angel is initially discovered in an embryonic state, vaguely resembling a human embryo and encased within a dark, elliptical cocoon-like object. When Sandalphon prepares to hatch, it vocalizes in the same manner as a human baby (however distorted) and proceeds to rearrange its mass into a new form. Its adult form is flattened, finned, and overall fish-like, similar to that of a flatfish. Despite having two "eyes" similar to a flatfish, its actual eyes are on stalks, and its actual mouth is on the ventral side on its head, similar to that of Anomalocaris and related dinocaridids.. It can withstand extremely high temperatures, such as those experienced inside of an active volcano, even with its mouth opened.

    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 does not have a visible core; it appears to be hidden internally, as per Ramiel and Sandalphon.

    Sahaquiel is the Tenth Angel, one that lingers in low-orbit of Earth. The Angel is a massive and bizarrely-shaped creature. It has an elongated body, with three eye-like markings (one in the center, surrounded by what appear to be six "eyelashes" and one on either end of the body), and three stem-like growths projecting radially at both ends, vaguely resembling hands. Sahaquiel's A.T. Field is comparatively powerful, able to shield the Angel from several N² bombs. It also seems to have an ability to jam satellite communications. The Angel's most devastating weapon is itself: utilizing both kinetic energy and its A.T. Field, it drops pieces of itself onto Earth as bombs. Its core appears as the pupil of the central "eye". It likely dropped pieces of itself instead of its whole mass at first to ensure its final landing would not be a failure and off-course.

Field, it demonstrates an ability to adapt and evolve to almost anything. Rather than "moving" in the conventional sense, the angel seems to simply spread by rapidly reproducing at the cellular level. It is not known whether or not Ireul has a core, though given it's sub-microscopic size this may be moot.

    Leliel is the Twelfth Angel, one that exists within its own dimension. Leliel is an extremely bizarre entity that exists in a pocket-dimension explained only by higher-order physics theories (abstract mathematics). Initially, Leliel appears to be a floating sphere with a warped, black and white color pattern that suddenly appears over Tokyo-3. However, Leliel's real body is actually what appears to be a shadow on the ground. The manifestation of Leliel's body in our dimension is 680 meters wide but only 3 nanometers thick; the floating sphere is just the "shadow" it casts in our dimension. Because it possess an inverted A.T. Field, it can absorb any material from our dimension inside of its body, within which is a Dirac Sea.

48. #48Zeruel

    Keys: Zeruel, the Fourteenth Angel

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Zeruel is a vaguely humanoid Angel slightly larger than an Evangelion, with a large, bulky body and prominent core. The core is rather large relative to Zeruel's body, and the S² Engine within may be, accordingly, "oversized", perhaps accounting in part for the discrepancy in power between Zeruel and other, similarly sized Angels. Zeruel possesses a protective lid-membrane capable of shielding the core when threatened, and it serves as a testament to Zeruel's incredibly tough constitution: even when an N² bomb is detonated in direct contact with the (protected) core, not only is the red sphere left completely unscathed, but the rest of the body is, as well.

    Zeruel's distinctive arms hang from its large, bony "shoulders", folding up when not used and reaching lengths at least three times the Angel's height when deployed, serving as deadly cutting weapons. Zeruel is shown to be capable of forming fists in production drawings, although the only time separate digits are seen in-show is when Zeruel lifts Unit-01 by the head. It's face is capable of changing its consistency, from becoming hard enough to cast sparks on impact to rubbery enough to be lifted like a mask. It is attached to a sinewy "neck" normally kept inside the body and is capable of a limited degree of movement. Two eyes hidden inside the deep "sockets" are, as with Zeruel's kin Sachiel and Israfel, employed for both vision and energy projection.

    Zeruel demonstrates an enhanced ability for firing the familiar cross-shaped energy blasts fired by Sachiel: a single shot breaches eighteen of the GeoFront's twenty-two protective armor layers and is capable of setting off four in rapid succession. It can also fire focused energy beams directly from its eyes, taking a few seconds to charge before releasing a powerful burst of energy.

    Arael is the Fifteenth Angel, one that battles through the mind. Arael appears as a jagged, winged creature made of intense light that hovers around Earth. Its body appears to be made of bright blue light. Its Core, difficult to see due to the Angel's own luminosity, is held outside its main body by two inferior wings. Its total wingspan seems to be several times larger than that of an Evangelion, based on its size relative to the Spear of Longinus, though Arael and an Eva never physically meet directly. Arael uses an odd application of its A.T. Field to directly probe a human mind, visually represented as a diffuse ray of light. This probe is psychologically traumatic, though it is unclear if this harm was intentional or a byproduct of an information gathering probe.
50. #50Armisael

    Keys: the Sixteenth Angel, Armisael

    Enabled · Selective · After character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings
    Armisael is the Sixteenth Angel and the last of Adam's natural offspring. Armisael initially appears as a rapidly revolving ring of light, double-helical in form, which may represent a Plasmid. Its pattern cycles between blue and orange, from which Ritsuko Akagi concludes that the Angel does not have a fixed form. The two helices eventually fuse together, and the ring severs at a single point to take on a thread-like form, several times longer than an Eva's height.

    The Angel's second form is capable of moving extremely quickly, and it effortlessly penetrates the A.T. Field of Unit-00. Point-blank fire from the Eva's sniper rifle is completely ineffective. A Progressive Knife attack makes Armisael bleed (red, as per nearly all angels), and causes it visible pain, although it doesn't seem to have any lasting effect.

    Upon contacting another being, Armisael begins to undertake "bio-fusion", that is, physically invading the foreign body with its own biomass. The invasion is externally visible as venous protrusions that spread and thicken as fusion continues. Eventually, psychological contact will become possible. Whether or not this methodology technically constitutes an "attack" from Armisael's perspective is ambiguous.

    Armisael possesses advanced metamorphic properties.
