Shamshel
Shamshel is the third Angel to appear in the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is a large, quadrupedal creature with a long tail and a pair of large wings. Its body is covered in a thick layer of armor, and its eyes are a deep red.
Shamshel is first seen attacking the Japanese city of Tokyo-3. It quickly destroys several buildings and kills a number of people. The Evangelion Unit-01 is deployed to stop it, but the Angel is too powerful for the Eva. However, Unit-01 is able to defeat Shamshel by using its AT Field to absorb the Angel's energy attacks.
After its defeat, Shamshel's remains are taken to NERV headquarters for study. It is later revealed that Shamshel is one of the Thirteen Angels, a group of powerful beings that were created by an ancient race of aliens known as the First Ancestral Race. The Angels are all sent to Earth to destroy humanity, and it is up to the Evangelion pilots to stop them.
Shamshel is a powerful and dangerous opponent, but it is ultimately defeated by the combined efforts of Unit-01 and the NERV pilots. Its defeat is a sign of hope for
