Nerv: The White Paper

Marie Vincennes

Marie Vincennes (マリイ・ヴァンセンヌ) is an American pilot in the tabletop role-playing game The Nerv White Paper. While holding the rank of an Eva pilot, she is not cleared for combat and as such has no actual piloting experience, instead being assigned to the scientific branch with the task to improve entry plug harmonics. Initially, she is self-centered and arrogant under a superficial guise of being gentle and soft-spoken. Marie cooperated with both Nerv and the CIA to further her research, but after two agents observing her were killed and her technology caused an Eva to run amok, she realizes the extent of consequences that her actions had. After being hospitalized for an injury sustained in a field trip, she reveals to Nerv staff that the thing the CIA were after was a program written by her that disables her changes made to the entry system; as the CIA wanted it destroyed, she hid it within the necklace of Pen Pen. After that, her attitude and relationships with the rest of the pilots changes for the better dramatically, and when she gets transferred to Nerv China as technical staff for the construction of Eva 08, she is seen off by Misato and the other pilots, to which she replies with "See you again, my friends." Later temporarily returns to help with figuring out a way to ensure power to the Evas after the infrastructure of Japan sustained significant damage throughout the fighting, terrorist attacks on Tokyo-3's power grid and Baraquijal all become an issue at the same time.

Like many other characters, Marie is named after a warship. Most likely it was the New Orleans-class cruiser USS Vincennes (CA-44) that was sunk during the Battle of Savo Island in 1942, or the Cleveland-class cruiser (CA-64) that was commissioned in 1944 and decommissioned in 1946, rather than the Ticonderoga-class cruiser (CG-49) that was involved in the infamous Iran Air shootdown incident.

Commander Nikolayev

Nikolayev is the Commander of Nerv Russia. He appears to be open and friendly, but it's unclear if that is a front. Initially refuses the help of Nerv Japan in dealing with the angel Iblis. Although no source is given for his name, given the naval theme in Evangelion character names, he is likely named for the Soviet missile cruiser Nikolayev, the lead ship of the Project 1134B Berkut B (NATO reporting name: "Kara-class") cruisers.

Girlfriend of Steel

Mana Kirishima

Mana Kirishima (霧島 マナ) appears in the video game Girlfriend of Steel, voiced by Megumi Hayashibara, as Shinji's love interest. She is characterized as an amalgamation of Rei and Asuka and pilots the T-RIDEN-T Land Cruiser. She is enrolled in Shinji's class, and Asuka is extremely jealous of her. As with many other Evangelion characters, her family name comes from a World War II warship; in this case, the Battlecruiser/Fast Battleship Kirishima.

She also appears in the Shinji Ikari Raising Project.

Musashi Lee Strasberg

Musashi Lee Strasberg (ムサシ・リー・ストラスバーグ) is one of Mana's fellow TRIDENT pilots from the Girlfriend of Steel game. He is voiced by Hiro Yuki. He is named after the mighty Yamato-class battleship Musashi and possibly acclaimed actor, director and founder of method acting, Lee Strasberg. Alternatively, his middle name and surname could have been derived from warships: the Battlecruiser/Light Battleship Strasbourg and the American destroyer USS Lee (the choice of middle name is unlikely, since the destroyer is obscure and Lee is a very common name).

Keita Asari

Keita Asari (浅利 ケイタ) is one of Mana's fellow TRIDENT pilots from the Girlfriend of Steel game. He is voiced by Tetsuya Iwanaga. [[]]

She is voiced by Ai Shimizu and named after the World War Two light cruiser Agano and possibly Matsu-class destroyer Kaede (female name or named after the warship, unclear)
• Satsuki Ooi (大井 サツキ) Intelligent and self-confident, a bit of a workaholic. In charge of Melchior. She is voiced by Maria Yamamoto and named after the World War Two 'torpedo cruiser' Oi and possibly the Mutsuki-class destroyer Satsuki as well (here too, Satsuki is a common female name, adding to the confusion)
• Aoi Mogami (最上 アオイ) A gentle and caring person who is good friends with Maya Ibuki. Good at cooking, has the most common sense of the trio and is in charge of Balthasar. She is voiced by Yui Horie and named after the heavy cruiser Mogami and possibly the cancelled Tachibana-class destroyer Aoi (it would be hilarious if it were three in a row - but it's perfectly possible!)
