Geocache Description:

In inspiration of the FMA: Homunculus Series. I’ve made a series of caches to be based off the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion and the Angels. In the NGE there are 18 Angels and 2 organization called NERV and Seele. For this series of caches I will be placing 2 puzzles caches and 18 Traditional caches with some clues to the 2 puzzles caches, but not all 18 have clues in them. BYOP

The fifth Angel, Ramiel (Ramieru), is a hollow, translucent blue octahedron. Ramiel defends itself with a proton particle beam that automatically targets any hostile object within a certain radius or any direct threat outside of it. It also bears an AT field that it visibly warps light passing through it. It extends a drill bit from its bottom apex and attempts to bore through the armor above the GeoFront, in the first credible attempt to reach Terminal Dogma. Despite being one of the most powerful and formidable Angels, Ramiel is very passive in nature, using a slowly moving drill to bore into the GeoFront while using its deadly energy attacks only for defensive purposes. Ramiel's core is not shown, but it is implied to be deep within the Angel's body. Rebuild of Evangelion reveals Ramiel's core at the center of its body.

Ramiel was defeated by Rei and Shinji in a coordinated assault (the two pilots' first operation together). The overall plan was named Yashima . Ramiel reacted and fired at the same time as Shinji. The two beams met each other, warping each other and causing both to miss. Ramiel fired a second shot before the positron cannon could fully recharge; Rei blocked the beam, first with the shield and then with Unit 00 itself after the shield was destroyed. This bought Shinji enough time to fire a second shot after the cannon recharged, which passed through Ramiel's center and killed it. Like Shamshel, Ramiel's corpse remained intact and was shown over the next several episodes being gradually deconstructed.

It is named for the Angel of Thunder (Kaminari no Tenshi) and divine visions, who guides the souls of the faithful to Heaven.[citation needed] In the Rebuild of Evangelion series, Ramiel has been changed significantly: it retains its original octahedral shape when acting passively, but when attacking or defending it morphs into symmetrical arrangements of multiple geometric shapes, with different configurations for different situations. Its drill bit is also morphed out of its substance. Additionally, it is surrounded by a noise that sounds like female choral music, emitting screams when it attacks and is damaged. It is classified as the sixth Angel instead of the fifth.
