Cast of Characters (alphabetically by actor's name)
===================================================
Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson)
Dr. Dana Scully plays the skeptic, insisting that everything has a
logical scientific explanation, although her exposure to the X-Files
certainly has given her cause to question her own beliefs. She was assigned
to work with Agent Mulder to keep an eye on him and determine if his
activities are worth the time he spends working on them. She was recruited
out of medical school and saw the FBI as a place to distinguish herself.
Agent Fox "Spooky" Mulder (David Duchovny)
Agent Fox Mulder is one of the FBI's greatest detectives with his
photographic memory and his background as a psychologist which has helped
him to profile many serial killers. His interest in the paranormal made him
dig into the X-Files and also gave some higher officials in the bureau cause
to believe him eccentric, reinforcing the nickname "Spooky" which he
received in the academy. His fascination with extraterrestial life began in
his childhood when his sister disappeared - Fox claims she was abducted by
aliens.
Other Important Players
=======================
Assistant Director Walter S. Skinner (Mitch Pileggi)
One of the heads of the FBI who seems to be under orders to
eliminate the X-Files division and is searching for a way to hinder
Mulder's efforts at every turn.
"Smoking Man" (William B. Davis)
A quiet man of whom little is known, but he does seem to hold a
position of power even though much of his job entails storing top secret
items in the Pentagon.
(Note: The name "Smoking Man" was taken from the credits following
"Tooms.")
"Deep Throat" (Jerry Hardin)
This mysterious and influential man first appeared to warn Mulder
about Ellens Air Force Base. He has provided Mulder with a lot of
classified information, and in doing so, places his own life in danger. His
reasons for helping Mulder are his own, but he claims that it is a form of
penitence.
(Note: The name "Deep Throat" was given to him by the writers and was first
spoken aloud in "The Erlenmeyer Flask.")

items in the Pentagon.
(Note: The name "Smoking Man" was taken from the credits following
"Tooms.")

This mysterious and influential man first appeared to warn Mulder
about Ellens Air Force Base. He has provided Mulder with a lot of
classified information, and in doing so, places his own life in danger. His
reasons for helping Mulder are his own, but he claims that it is a form of
penitence.
