X-Files: the Conspiracy

  Special Agent Dana Scully


Dana Katherine Scully is a medical doctor with an undergraduate degree in physics from the University of Maryland [Jersey Devil]. She was recruited for the FBI right out of medical school, and had been teaching at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Va. She was assigned by Section Chief Scott Blevins to be Mulder's partner in order to keep an eye on him and determine whether he is perhaps too obsessed with the X files.

Scully is skeptical of anything paranormal, believing that everything has a logical, scientifically-quantified explanation. Though in most of the cases she and Mulder have been on she has not witnessed any overt paranormal activities, she has had brushes with unexplainable phenomena that may have her start questioning her beliefs [Beyond the Sea, Lazarus, Born Again, Erlenmeyer Flask, Fresh Bones, Colony, End Game, The Calusari]. However, she is determined to uncover the science behind the phenomena [End Game].

At the end of Season 1, the X Files division was shut down and Scully was reassigned, returning to the FBI academy at Quantico, Va. to instruct new agents on the basics of forensic medicine [Little Green Men]. However, Mulder called upon her expertise in violent crime cases to which he had been assigned [The Host, Blood]. Scully was abducted by escaped mental patient Duane Barry and disappeared [Ascension]. After a three-month absence, she showed up at a Georgetown hospital in a coma [One Breath]. She revived and recovered, and is back as Mulder's partner. The missing memories during her disappearance may be surfacing, however [Irresistible].

At the end of Season 2, Scully went into hiding with Mulder, missing a scheduled meeting with Skinner and putting her career in jeopardy [Anasazi].

Scully, born Feb. 23, 1966, [Lazarus, One Breath] is a middle child; she has one older and one younger brother [Born Again], and an older sister, Melissa [One Breath]. Her father died early in 1994; they were apparently close at one time (she called him Ahab; he called her Starbuck), but her family disapproved of her joining the Bureau. [Beyond the Sea] She had a yearlong relationship with an instructor at the Academy, Jack Willis, with whom she shared the same birthdate [Lazarus]. She is just as much a workaholic as Mulder, and is currently not seeing anyone [Jersey Devil].

Scully drinks her coffee with cream, no sugar [E.B.E.]. She was raised as a Catholic [Miracle Man]. She wears a necklace bearing a small cross, which was left behind in the car in which she was abducted [Ascension] and was returned to her by Mulder [One Breath].


The following stats were generated according to
"the Hunter's Hunted" and updated with "Project Twilight."


Name: Dana Scully

Agency: FBI/X-Files Division
Position: Veteran Agent
Rank: 2
Nature: Director
Demeanor: Curmudgeon
Motive: Duty (to the FBI to bring in criminals, though not necessarily criminal aliens from the Reticulua Major system)
Method: Scientific/Detective
Concept: FBI agent

Attributes

Physical: Strenth 2, Dexterity 2, Stamina 2
Social: Charisma 2 (though when "on-duty" she acts more like it's a 1, she can be friendly when she wants to), Manipulation 2, Appearance 3
Mental: Perception 3, Intelligence 4, Wits 2 (yes, her Perception and Wits are lower than Mulder's. Even if the main reason she ends up in the other room/looking the other way/knocked unconscious whenever a flying saucer or werewolf shows up is because the writers want it that way, her stats still need to reflect the fact that she sees a lot less than Mulder does)

Abilities

Talents: Alertness 2, Athletics 1, Dodge 1, Empathy 2, Leadership 2, Subterfuge 1
Skills: Drive 2, Ettiquette 2, Firearms 3, Stealth 2
Knowledges: Bureaucracy 2, Computer 2, Investigation 4 (she's good, but she doesn't have Mulder's experience), Law 4, Linguistics 2, Medicine 4, Science 4

Backgrounds: Resources 3, Contacts 3

Numina: None

Virtues: Conscience 5, Self-Control 4, Courage 3 (I originally had this at 4, but decided to change it when I considered the fact that she is unwilling to believe in aliens and such mainly because she is 'scared' to think that those sorts of things could be real. When forced to face the unknown, however, she won't collapse in fear)

Humanity: 10
Willpower: 8 (she seems, in many ways, more rational and collected than Mulder and probably is more steeled against mental domination, though she was mind-zapped in "GenderBender", too, but she fought it the whole way).
