Marie Vincennes

Marie Vincennes (マリイ・ヴァンセンヌ) is an original character from Neon Genesis Evangelion RPG: The NERV White Paper game.

Profile
She is a non-standard American Evangelion pilot, meaning that while she is technically classified as a pilot she’s not cleared for actual combat instead being relegated to Evangelion research and development. A prodigy with a P.H.D., she acts meek and polite, but in actuality is haughty and domineering with a habit of giving back handed compliments. Something of a reverse on Asuka's personality. However she eventually shows a softer side being fond of Pen Pen, and eventually opening up to the other pilots both after they save her from drowning when she falls off a boat while visiting Lake Ashinoko during a field trip, and after they visit her when she is injured by a berserk Eva during her first (and as it turns out last) attempt at participating in a synch test.

In the scenario which she appears she becomes angry when she’s transferred to Tokyo-3 in July 2015 to improve Evangelion's entry plug systems but not allowed to join the main research staff instead being relegated to an assistant role. She therefore secretly delivers her research on single electron pulse generation to the

She intended for them to use the truck mounted device to prove her theory that an electron pulse delivered remotely to the Eva’s power connection could mimic normal Eva signal harmonics and thus allow the Eva to be remotely piloted. However the CIA instead uses it to interfere with an EVA exercise causing signal noise in the plug that drives one of the Evas berserk in order to make the NERV Japanese Branch look bad and shift international support to the American NERV branches.

After the CIA later attempts to silence her to cover up their actions and recollect a flash drive with a copy of her data which she hid in Pen Pen’s collar she eventually comes clean about what’s going on and helps to develop an electronic countermeasure to her invention. Afterwards the CIA’s plot is exposed and Marie is promoted and transferred to the Chinese NERV branch in August to assist in the development of Unit-08 (and also to keep her out of reach of the CIA). While there she makes a breakthrough in ultra-high density batteries for the Evas which she later delivers to Tokyo-3 in October to assist them after some terrorists backed by a local corporation and the Japanese government (who are leery of NERV’s growing influence) damage the power supply in Tokyo-3. In her last appearance she helps to come up with a plan to counter the Angel Baraqijal and it’s acid by suggesting they inject it with an alkaline solution to neutralize its acid. After it’s defeat and the repair of Tokyo-3’s power grid Marie returns to NERV China.
