Summary[]
Gaghiel is the Sixth Angel, which attacked the UN fleat trasporting Unit-02 to Japan with an underwater assault, due to sensing the embryo of Adam, which was held by Kaji. Because off Eva-02 being in the Type B Configuration, which isn't suited for underwater fighting, it was unable to properly fight the angel, instead requiring two battleships to be detonated inside it's body to be destroyed
Powers and Stats[]
Tier: 7-A, High 7-A with A.T. Field
Name: Gaghiel, the Sixth Angel, The Sixth Apostle (In supplementary material)
Origin: Evangelion
Age: 15 years old (Gaghiel's soul was deposited into a physical body immediately after the events of "Second Impact" on 13th September 2000)
Gender: Unknown
Classification: Angel/Apostle, Child of Adam
Powers and Abilities: Angel Physiology (Standard) Large Size (Type 2 - It's shown to be larger than battleships), Natural Weaponry (Conventional - Teeth)
Attack Potency: Mountain level (Overwhelmed Unit-02, with Asuka and Shinji requiring to achieve an extremely high synch rate to force it's jaws open), Large Mountain level with A.T. Field (A.T. Fields can be used offensively to bypass those of others)
Speed: FTL combat speed and reactions (Comparable in speed to Unit-02, who was able to dodge Israfel's optic blasts)
Lifting Strength: Class G (Easily dragged Unit-02 in it's mouth)
Striking Strength: Mountain level
Durability: Mountain level, Large Mountain level with A.T. Field (An A.T. Field's strength is derived by the soul, which should be around the same caliber among the angels. Sachiel and Israfel's A.T. Fields allowed them to survive a direct N2 mine detonation)
Stamina: Infinite (S² engines provide limitless motive energy)
Range: Hundreds of Meters via sheer size
Standard Equipment: Teeth
Intelligence: Unknown (While Gachiel appears mostly animalistic, it has been stated it could have actively hunted down Unit-02)
Weaknesses: The "core" of an Angel, once breached, means absolute certainty of death for the Angel involved.
Notable Attacks/Techniques
(S² = Super Solenoid Engine; also known as the "Fruit of Life"): An elusive double-helical organ, traditionally possessed by only Adam and its progeny, the Angels. This "engine" organ is responsible for the perpetual energy supply that the Angels can utilize, along with the vast majority of their exotic physiological powers (including levitation, regeneration and energy-projection). Appears to be the key to inverting "A.T. Fields" and projecting an "Anti A.T. Field" also, as well as accessing the "Dirac sea".
- A.T. Field: The intangible light of the soul in the physical world, A.T. Fields are possessed by all living beings on NGE-Earth and are one of the major aspects of the human psyche that defines someone as "individual" and "protect" them from the intrusion of another's feelings. However, the Evangelion Units and the Angels are unique in the ability to generate A.T. Fields that are corporeal and occasionally visible to the naked eye, possibly due to the large amount of innate energy contained in their souls. Their A.T. Fields mostly function as a physical defence: a forcefield consisting of concentric octagonal yellow lines. The barrier is almost perfect, only being temporarily disrupted from its active state by incredibly energetic weapons (such as military-grade positron beams and "N² Weapons") or erosion by another corporeal "A.T. Field" that is superior in strength. If left alone after initial disruption, the A.T. Field will revive its durability almost instantly as long as the user is still alive, making it a regenerative barrier. The transition from a dormant A.T. Field to an active Field is indicated by a slight atmospheric blurring.
- Regeneration: Angels possess a healing factor, able to regenerate from relatively large wounds thanks to the S² Engine in their cores and as long as it is intact they can hypothetically regenerate from complete bodily destruction. Their regeneration has a limit however, since as previously mentioned, the S² Engine is responsible for regeneration, if this organ is significantly damaged, it will cancel the regeneration, killing the angel.
Jaws: Gaghiel has a giant set of jaws possessing countless shark-like teeth which it used to bite down on Unit-02, forcing both pilots inside to achieve a high sync rate in order the pry them open. [1]
