Ramiel is by far one of the more powerful Angels to be pitted against the awesome might of the Eva series. Ramiel's armament consists of a drilling or boring device, which the Angel uses to attack NERV directly, and an exceptional AT field, so powerful in fact that the spatial changes in phase generated by the field can be seen by the naked eye. As if this weren't enough, Ramiel is also capable of skimming across surfaces and possesses a devastating accelerated particle beam cannon capable of shooting right through an Eva given roughly five seconds. Ramiel also indiscriminately targets opponents that enter within a set distance of the Angel, thus all in all Ramiel is a flying fortress capable of decimating those foolish enough to approach. |

This angel was named after an angel which was also associated with archangel, Uriel. Ramiel presided over true visions, had authority over souls that will be raised from the grave on Judgment Day, and is rumored to have destroyed the hosts of Sennacherib. The Evangelion, episode 6, Ramiel was a diamond like being equipped with a high-intensity laser beam which can shoot straight through any threat. It also has a drill that is able to drill through the ground, and procedes to attempt to penetrate into NERV by drilling, a process which would take it about 16 hours. To destroy it, Misato has to commandeer a proto-type positron rifle which is energised by most of the electrical poser of Japan. Shinji, who has greater fine motor control of his Eva, wields the rifle. Rei, who has finally gained control of Unit-00, is ordered to shield Shinji from Ramiel's laser. This she does without hesitation, even though she was within seconds of being killed by the beam when Shinji's positron rifle shot destroys Ramiel. |
