DANA K. SCULLY (<>..<>) She is dedicated to objetivity and common sense, but open to extreme possibilities. Special Agent Dana Scully is not only a medical doctor with a specialty in forensics, but a firm believer in reason who thinks there is a scientific explanation behind every X-file. Against her parents wishes, Scully went from medical school to Quantico, where she taught for two years at the FBI's training academy. From there she was assigned to work with Fox Mulder and the X-Files, with the strong implication that she was to debunk them. Over the years that they have worked together, her trust in his instints and her respect for his integrity have eroded her skepticism. She finds her faith in a scientific and orderly universe constantly challenged by the cases she pursues with Mulder. Far from being a spy for the bureaucrats who hinder their work, Scully is a full partner in the X-Files, focusing on assembling the hard evidence that will prove the truth is out there.
CANCER MAN(<>..<>)The man behind the cloud of smoke has been involved in the affairs of the X-Files since the day Section Chief Scott Blevins assigned Dana Scully to "assist" Fox Mulder. His silent presence in Skinner's office is always a warning that the shadowy government attempting to discredit Mulder is again keeping an eye on the nonconformist agent. When not in Skinner's office, he can be found in the basement of the Pentagon, secreting evidence in a vast storehouse of classified materials. The tension between Mulder and the CSM has increased steadly as the nameless man with the pack of Morleys increasingly involves himself in Mulder's work. In "One Breath", Mulder blamed the CSM for the abduction of Dana Scully, and came within a trigger-pull of killing him. In "Anasazi", we learned that his involvement goes back to the beginning, all the way to Fox Mulder's father. He may be responsible for Bill Mulder's murder, and he is certainly responsible for several attempts on the life of the X-Files agents. His menace may be fading, however, as both the Well-Manicured Man he answers to and Alex Kricek, his tool who has turned against him, threaten to bring upon him a justice Mulder and Scully cannot.
MARGARET SCULLY( <>..<> ) There is steel in this soft-spoken, woman, a will and a determination that lie just below her conventional surface. Her family is everything to Margaret Scully, recently widowed by the death of her husband, Captain William Scully. She combines a motherly concern with a practical domesticity; clearly. she´s a woman whose life has been spent as a homemaker and mother. She may have a bit of psychic intuition, however. When Dana is kidnapped in "Duane Barry", Margaret confesses to Mulder that she had had a premonition about Dana, but was afraid to tell her skeptical daughter. In "One Breath", she sits at the center of a storm when Mulder discovers his parter lying comatose in the hospital; ignoring his rage and the violence of the scene he creates, she focuses entirely on her daughter to the exclusion of all else.
SAMANTHA MULDER ( <>..<> ) The search for his missing sister has become the linchpin of Mulder´s life, driving him to abandon a dazzling career for the dusty realms of the X-Files. Samantha Mulder was eight years old, four years younger than her brother, when she disappeared. "It tore the family apart", he tells Scully. "No one would talk about it". Mulder himself repressed the incident until his hynotic regression in 1989, freeing his confused memories. Since that time, there have been tantalizing glimpses and hints of her fate: in "Miracle Man" a faith healer hinted that she may still alive. In "Duane Barry", a self-proclaimed abductee warned Mulder that children were often seen in the alien ships, undergoing painful "tests". The appearance of a woman claiming to be Samantha in "Colony" and "End Game" seemed to solve the mystery. Mulder risked her life to discover the truth about her, but in the end his request raised even more questions than it answered. Still, as he told Scully, he found one thing he needed: faith to keep looking.
