A massive life-form that attacked NERV headquarters, known in the Eva pilots' world as an Angel—mankind's greatest threat. The Angel on Hitakami Island acts as a protective shell for the primal beast Elpis, created by fusing the bodies of multiple nepsis to counter the Evas, Robomi, and Nicholas. Its appearance and abilities are imitations recreated from memories and knowledge acquired through Elpis's connection to Rei.
