Campaign:AvisNoah

"I'd love to stay and chat, but I have to play tennis with one of the senior partners. You're all the hope for our future, keep it up!" -Commander Richard "Niceguy" White

Avis Noah is named after the spaceship that was found underneath Area 51, refitted to be a fortress protecting humanity from the threat of the Angels as well as to house a city within itself, it is staffed with the very best that the UN could muster and that includes the players.

Basic Information

"As you can see even after the UN resorted to deploying a N2 mine so close to not one but two civilian settlements, they still couldn't stop the monster. It took Nerv, the mysterious organization in Area 51 to destroy the enemy, with no less than the deployment of four giant robots!"

Avis Noah is the second of the Adeptus Evangelion games running on the #adeptusevangelion channel on Rizon, started just a few weeks after Monolith to let the people who were left out have a shot at playing, it is currently the main playtesting ground of the v2 ruleset.

Backstory

Presumed to have been built by the FAR, Avis Noah is the name given by the UN (or perhaps SEELE) to a gigantic spacecraft of unknown origin underground the Nevada Desert. Full of technology ranging between puzzling, defunct and trivial, its existence was a secret until the Second Impact.

Avis Noah served as a shelter for years, and during the heavy rebuilding of the USA they started to build residences on the inside, as part of the plan to reactivate it's nature as a mothership and escape the coming of the Angels.

Eventually the Avis Noah program was scrapped in favor of the Evangelion program which seemed more reliable, and the remaining half of it was to be used to house the Headquarters of NERV-02 and to help in the development of the Evangelions.

Although Project E was officially the last line of defense for humanity against the Angels, it wasn't until 2014 that it had enough funds to advance at a decent pace, the Production Model Evangelions are proof of this advancement, made in just under a year's worth of development.

This is for a very simple reason, the Angels known now as the 3rd Angel "Sachiel" and the 4th Angel "Shamshel" were reported to awaken during 2014, the official files say that they were subdued though there is no mention how they managed to do that. In any case, this meant much better funding for the Evangelion Project which would be accompanied by the higher ups pulling some strings to get the best of the best as their staff.

As of the campaign start Avis Noah is a fortress meant to protect humanity from Third Impact, in it reside the four finished Evangelion units, two of them made by this very own branch.

Characters

Four Evangelion Pilots, with two Operations Directors (one of them now the NPC Subcommander) round the cast of this campaign.

---

Therese Newman, Operations Director

“Stay calm and don't panic! Fear is only natural when you are face to face with death. Don't blink, hun~”

The second of the two ODs to grace Avis Noah, she was appointed by the UN to make sure things go the way they want after one too many accidents during the direction of one Dick Ranger.

To call her a MILF would be unfair to her sex appeal, Therese is a woman of many skills and her ability to woo people is just one of many.

She is clever, with a talent for oddball ideas and with enough common sense to know when to hit the brakes, her friendly and go-getter attitude is further supported by her amazing cooking skills that make her an Angel (the good kind!) on Earth for those lucky enough to get a taste.

• Major Accomplishments: Sent three Evangelions to space and detonated a N2 Mine at point blank range to destroy a spacefaring Angel succesfully, made some really damn good pies.

Alan Anderson, First Children and Pilot of EVA 00

"Yes sir, I will find a clothing store and adquire some civilian clothes."

The resident Manufactured Alan Anderson the weapons specialist, a calm and seemingly normal kid who is shoved into the big brother role due to his seniority in time piloting and age.

Despite his frail and puny look he is an amazing marksman, and has dealt the killing blow to many an Angel... as well as some things that don't quite count as Angels.

He has his moments of weirdness, however, and in addition to his nerdiness that has earned him the ire of certain people who think he is calling attention to himself by acting like he's special.

• Major Accomplishments: Dealt the killing blow to the simulated A3 as well as well as taking part of the combination attack that destroyed A5, blasted a hole into A7 to allow Command to N2 Mine it into oblivion, shot down in personal scale an unknown Angelspawn-esque creature and hasn't taken a single point of damage since the campaign started.

George Wagner, Second Children and Pilot of EVA 01

"Take this! My love, my hate! AT WAAAAVE!"

The AT Field Tactician is a Neospartan that has been trained never to retreat, never to surrender, trained to believe that death in the battlefield was the greatest glory to be achieved in life.

He presents a serious, perfect soldier persona but his heroic spirit gets the best of him and forces him to make foolish, if brave, decisions.

On the flip side, though perhaps he does not see it that way, his courageous heart of a hero has earned him many an admirer and he has a dedicated club of fangirls who melt at his feet.

• Major Accomplishments: Took part of the combo that destroyed A5, stood up in personal scale to one of the unknown Angelspawn-like creatures and an Angel, was the MVP for the other Not-Angelspawn fight during the A6 mindtrip, and stole a cripple kid's NERV ID to buy food with it leaving said cripple unable to enter his own house.

Luis Medeira, Third Children and Pilot of EVA 02

"I CAN'T DIE HERE! I CAN'T LET EVERYONE DOWN!!"

Luis is a rebellious kid with anger management issues, his amazing physical endurance and hotblooded attitude allowed him to survive the extremely harsh training camp he got sent to after being confirmed as a potential EVA pilot.

His lack of patience has landed him in many a bad spot, such as getting beaten by his first Operations Director, or being thrown into jail by the more down to earth second one.

Up till now he is the only pilot who has expressed an obvious interest in the opposite sex, or any sex for that matter, with less than optimum results.

• Major Accomplishments: Endured the mental attack from A6 and the ego barrier breach by the unfinished EVA 04 without any external aid, was the MVP for the A8 encounter and turned a cripple kid's wheelchair sideways after said kid started hostilities with Sani.

Sani Loituma, Fourth Children and Pilot of EVA 03

"To be honest, the entire class has acted insensitive, rude, violent and outright barbaric. Me included."

Sani is a smart girl, probably the only one of the quartet with enough social graces to not make a fool of herself all the time unlike the others, this usually ends up with her standing aside as the chaos follows the others around.

Sani lacks proper combat training, and thus she resorts to what her Eva has proven to be pretty capable of doing, biting, pecking, scratching and otherwise fighting like a little girl.

In addition to her strange relationship with whatever it is that lies inside her Evangelion, she seems dependent on the Commander's approval which has up till now always been there, but she is scared and the trials of battle are starting to get to her.

• Major Accomplishments: Has gone multiple sessions without ever disappointing the object of her dependency, dealt enough damage to the simulated A3 and to A5 to enable others to destroy them, started a fight with a cripple kid by slapping him for making terribly offensive jokes.

The Angels

Sachiel, the Third Angel or A3

You see it: Birdlike skull and long, black arms, the creature is on top of you, strangling you with bony hands. It whispers "Return...Body...This One" in a calm, almost psychotic tone as its masked head tilts to the side like a clock hand, faint glow coming from inside hollow eyes, as if staring deep into your soul.

Sachiel, the canonical Third Angel that was defeated months ago by mysterious means, is now somehow part of EVA 02 and attempted to wrestle control of the Evangelion from Luis Medeira's hands. It is believed this was enabled by Zadkiel's abilities and that the Angel is otherwise forced to remain docile at all times.
