Bardiel is the Thirteenth Angel, which infects and takes over Evangelion Unit-03.
Biology
Bardiel originally appeared hiding in a cloud which the cargo plane transporting Eva Unit 03 passed through while flying from the United States to Japan. Somewhat similar to the 11th Angel, Ireul, the fungus-like Bardiel-infection spread into the Evangelion's systems. When Eva Unit 03 was activated at the secondary Nerv testing facility at Matsushiro, it mutated Eva 03 into a horribly corrupted monster. Bardiel/Eva 03 went on a rampage upon being activated, destroying the base, and then proceeded towards Tokyo-3. The corrupted Bardiel/Eva Unit 03 possesses the form of an Eva and the power of an Angel.
Bardiel tried to spread its infection to Eva 00 by seeping infected ooze out of Eva 03's arm. It was also impossible to eject the Entry Plug from Bardiel, because the fungus-like growth of the infection jammed it inside. Bardiel appears to share the same abilities as an Evangelion, including the same strength and acrobatic capabilities. Its most striking feature is that it has mutated Eva 03's arms so that they can extend to amazing lengths, quickly increasing them to twice as long as an Evangelion is tall.
Battle
Evangelion Unit 00, Unit 01, and Unit 02 were all deployed against Eva 03, which was now re-classified as the 13th Angel. Eva 02 was the first to encounter it and was almost instantly incapacitated. Eva 03 continued on its way, and Rei prepared to use Eva 00 to snipe it from behind. However, Eva 03's pilot, Toji Suzuhara was still trapped inside of it, and attempts to eject him failed due to a web-like growth around the Entry Plug. Because Toji was still inside, Rei hesitated to fire for a crucial moment, long enough for Eva 03 to become aware of Eva 00's position. Eva 03 quickly did a back flip, landing on Eva 00, and quickly had it pinned to the ground. The Bardiel-infection then began oozing out of Eva 03's arm and onto Eva 00's left arm, spreading the infection. Desperate to keep Eva 00 from also being infected, Nerv remotely severed Unit 00's left arm with internal explosive charges. This stopped Eva 00 from being infected but incapacitated it. Eva 03 was somewhat startled, but did not press its attack, and continued on its way.
Eva 01 then came face to face with the slowly advancing Eva 03. Shinji was totally unwilling to fight Eva 03 because he knew that a human pilot was still trapped inside and he felt they should try to save him (even though he did not yet know the pilot's identity). With Shinji refusing to fight, Eva 03 attacked Eva 01 with a somersaulting drop-kick, which knocked Eva 01 onto its back. Eva 01 stood up, but was then strangled by Eva 03: the Angel's infection had mutated Eva 03 so that its arms could extend to amazing lengths, roughly equal to its own height. Eva 03 quickly pinned Eva 01 to the mountainside while strangling it, and despite his own life being in serious danger Shinji still refused to fight back against it.
Exasperated with Shinji, Gendo Ikari ordered that Shinji's control over Eva 01 be cut and the Dummy Plug auto-pilot system be activated. Under the unstable control of the Dummy Plug, Eva 01's power surged and it began strangling Eva 03 as well. Both Evangelions remained locked in a death grip with their hands around each others' necks, until Eva 01 snapped Eva 03's neck and it went limp. However, Eva 01 then went completely berserk and threw Eva 03 to the ground, then smashed its skull in with a powerful punch. Like a wild animal, Eva 01 proceeded to tear Eva 03 apart, ripping off its armor plating and even limbs, and savagely pummeling its body to a pulp as a literal river of Eva 03's blood began flowing through a nearby canal. Finally, Eva 01 picked up Eva 03's Entry Plug, with Toji still inside, and crushed it in its clenched hand.
