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).
