Character: Adam Fandom:Neon Genesis Evangelion Character Notes: History:
There is very little known about Adam, beyond the fact that Adam and Lilith were released into the by some nebulous Space God. Maybe. After millions or more millions of years, they came to crash upon Earth. They are speculated to have wiped out the dinosaurs, so one might presume they are at least a little over 65 million years old. Following the mass extinction of the dinosaurs due to the residual effects of their individual impacts, Lilith came to rest beneath what would become Tokyo-3 (forming there the geofront), and Adam came to rest beneath what would become the Antarctic ice caps.
Many millions of years crawled by. Each entity came into a deep hibernation, though it seems Lilith came to be discovered a little after Adam. Given the canon’s timeline, we can assume that Adam may have been discovered anywhere from six-to-ten years before Second Impact. GEHIRN would have had to input a good amount of time to even reach the sleeping behemoth, never mind come to experiment upon it and form the groundwork and eventual fruition of the human cloning process. After all, Kaworu’s own shell needed to first be created in order for this to even make sense later on. Anyway, Adam was quite busy minding its own business by hibernating, and somewhere along the way, the humans came to discover what would be the key in waking up the beast: the Lance of Longinus. Being ambitious as they were, they of course wanted to continue experimentation. Gendo had gone to visit the site, but left before the cataclysmic happening – which is to say, the aforementioned Impact. Like any beast woken from the depths of sleep, much more with its only weakness, Adam reacted violently. Upon the use of what would later be known as an Anti-A.T. Field (one that attacks rather than defends), Adam proceeded to wipe out all that were upon the base – well, almost all of them. Doctor Katsuragi placed his only daughter, who was staying with him, within the only protective capsule left after the violent explosion that Adam caused. Despite her grievous injuries, she managed to survive the site of Second Impact. However, this would lead to much trouble for Adam’s “offspring”, as Misato, the scientist’s daughter, would forever hold deep hatred for Adam’s kind. Not to mention, too, she ended up being a pretty daring strategist. However, despite the shockwaves of destruction that Adam would echo throughout the world (as it shifted climates as well as sparked wars), it was eventually subdued and placed into cryostasis. The Lance managed to revert it to fetus, but without the specific treatment, Adam would again regrow into the beast that was once awoken.
It is unknown where Adam spent its years following that fateful event on September 13, 2000 – but, it can be assumed that it was found and frozen. Some speculate it might have spent time in SEELE’s possession, later taken by Kaji during the mission that brought Asuka to Japanese soil, and given to Gendo. Unfortunately for Adam, Gendo would proceed to consume its body preceding the events of episode 24, which likely a) distorted Kaworu’s ability to sense Adam b) just further proved the point that Kaworu had no idea what Adam even looked like, and assumed very genuinely that Lilith was Adam when he invaded Terminal Dogma. Gendo would go and (un)happily sit in Gendo’s right hand after fusing with him, presumably a pretty grand metaphor for Gendo’s God complex. After all, the Evangelion units were created to combat their once thought of “God”, which is Adam – and the Angels that would follow it. In EoE, Adam would be joined with the steadily “falling to pieces” Rei, though she would later join Lilith with the fetus of Adam within her of her own volition. After, of course, taking Gendo’s hand with her and leaving him to die. :|b
Personality:
Adam enjoys sleeping and becomes very violent when awoken! Similarly, it seems to want to join with its children more than anything. However, Adam will compromise if it has to and go ahead in side in some crazy man’s hand. Geez. Also, Adam is probably pretty wise, but Adam can’t talk and doesn’t possess any kind of curiosity for humans, nor can it talk to them. Adam usually tends to restrain its powers unless provoked, proving that it is probably pretty nonviolent by itself.
Other:Here's a nice picture. Also its full title might be "Adam Kadmon", not just "The Giant of Light".
First Person (entry type):
[ there is nothingness for a long, long time. no sound and no movement, though there seems to be a stillness that is filled with some life. not human. seems to be filled with some presence, beneath the thick miles of ice.
there’s a glow. cold, though it burns hotly.
whatever it is, it is huge and hulking. like the behemoth of myths or sacred texts.
for now, it is sleeping.
don’t wake it. ]
Third Person:
People were so small in comparison. Though it could not think like they do, more animal than human, it could hear the approaching sound of icepicks. Of drills. Like a roar or a rumble from the beginning of ages. Like the vastness of some universe that spans instead of shrinks. It has traveled many millions of miles. Further beyond the comprehension of humans. It cannot die, though it does not live. And if it could, perhaps it would wonder the mystery of mortality - the persistence. The fast way they scurry and shiver. Packed tightly in groups to keep warm. Far, far buried in chill. In snow.
It closes its massive eye.
One day soon, it will wake up. One day soon, it will spread its wings. One day soon, it will bloom and freeze. One day soon, they would fear the way of its glowing body. The ineffable cold, despite the enormous illusion of heat.
