Adam (アダム) is the designation of the First Angel, the first of Earth's two Seeds of Life and the progenitor of the Third through Seventeenth Angels.

Origins & Discovery

As with the other Seeds of Life, Adam was created by the First Ancestral Race billions of years ago and sent to Earth within the White Moon to begin a new race of humanity. However, Adam was unable to accomplish her mission: She was placed into suspended animation by her own Spear of Longinus for reasons unknown, and the progeny of Lilith populated the planet instead.

The inert Adam, and the Spear upon which she was impaled, were later discovered by the Katsuragi Research Team. Adam -- and especially the organ inside her core -- became the subject of intense scientific inquiry. This culminated in the so-called Contact Experiment, of which little is known beyond the involvement of a human "donor", DNA "diving" into Adam and "physically fusing", and Second Impact being ushered in as a result.

Second Impact

In the Contact Experiment's aftermath, Adam manifested an Anti A.T. Field (which produced the "thorough extermination of all life, including microorganisms"), altered the local "atmospheric elements", and opened her Doors of Guf -- all actions implying the reawakened Adam was attempting to reclaim the Earth. However, this failed due to Adam's S² Engine going beyond the control of both herself and the research team, ultimately resulting in her self-destruction.

The team's attempt to subdue Adam with the Spear of Longinus instead reverted Adam to an embryonic or egg state. (How Adam could explode and retrovert at the same time is unknown.) Adam's soul was separated from her body, presumably when the core was destroyed, but both her soul and what remained of her body were recovered by Seele after Second Impact.

Post-2I

Adam's soul was salvaged into Tabris. The embryo became the basis for Project E -- the creation of Adam copies, or Evangelions.

The embryonic Adam was clandestinely obtained by Ryoji Kaji and delivered to Gendo Ikari in Tokyo-3. Gendo then secretly grafted Adam onto his own right hand. During Third Impact, Gendo forces his hand into Rei III, merging Adam with her. However, she rejected Gendo, and Rei/Adam proceeded to merge with Lilith in Terminal Dogma. The gestalt Rei/Adam/Lilith creature then initiated Third Impact and Instrumentality. However, Shinji Ikari ultimately chose to reject instrumentality, and Eva Unit 01 burst from the being's eye and broke the Lance of Longinus in two. The Rei/Adam/Lilith being then fell to pieces and died.
