  • I want To Believe: Mulder is a true believer, allowing the desire to know the truth carry him through difficult encounters and near-death experiences.

This can only be done once per event.

Dana Scully







Dana Katherine Scully

F: Gd (10)
A: Gd (10)
S: Typ (06)
E: Ex (20)
R: Gd (10)
I: Rm (30)
P: Rm (30)

Health: 46
Karma: 70
Popularity: 0/-2 (Normally/within the FBI after being assigned to the X-Files)

Talents:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Knowledge: Literature
  • Instructor*

  • markswoman*
  • Detective/Espionage

Powers:
Scully is fairly normal, although several theories exist regarding her eventual life-span due to the chip implanted in her neck (During 2nd/3rd season):
  • Longevity/Immortal: Due to the actions of both by the Cigarette-Smoking Man and Alfred Fellig, Scully may have inadvertently gained a type of immortality or prolonged life. Although this was not confirmed, it is worth bringing up as others in the series have (including Clyde Bruckman who was able to see how a person dies and later members of the conspiracy). It's a theory, but it does have a great deal of suggestive evidence.
  • A skeptical Voice: Early on, Scully was the skeptic to Mulder's believer, often trying to find logical solutions to the cases in which they worked. When presented with a case that has some evidence in the scientific, Scully gains a +1cs to reason and intuition checks in order to provide logical solutions to issues. Later, Scully adopts more of a believer's mentality, but remains able to draw upon her skeptical voice during later events.
  • Partners: Scully can spend his own Karma on Mulder's behalf in most situations as necessary from about the end of season 1 onward.

Contacts:
Scully has a wealth of contacts in her professional careers as a doctor and physicist, including former associates and co-workers. Scully is close to Walter Skinner, her former boss at the FBI and later John Doggett, her partner while Mulder had disappeared.

Limitations:
Dana has the following limitations:
  • A skeptic's voice: It takes Dana some time to believe things that she has experienced and seen. Although Dana is no fool, she will try to rationalize some elements or find logical solutions.
  • Powerful Enemies: Scully has powerful enemies within the Alien Conspiracy.
  • Protecting Fox and William, her son: Dana seeks to protect Fox and their son William at any cost (Including leaving her son somewhere she or the conspiracy will ever find him. Dana is at a -1CS when attempting to act in situations where Fox or William are directly at risk.
  • Devoted to Mulder: Mulder would do practically anything for his partner Mulder especially later on..

The Cigarette Smoking Man (CSM) from 'The X-Files'

'Extraordinary men are always most tempted by the most ordinary things.'




The Cigarette Smoking Man, The Smoking Man,

F: Ex (20)
A:Gd (10)
S: Typ (06)
E: Ex (20)
R: Gd (10)
I: Rm (30)
P: Am (50)

Health: 56
Karma: 90
Popularity: 0* (See Below)
Resources: Gd (10) (Personal), Mn (75) (accessible)

Talents:
The CSM has many, many skills in years of service to the government and the shadowy conspiracy
  • Military
  • Covert Operations
  • Bureaucracy
  • Firearms
  • Detective/Espionage
  • Crime*
  • Knowledge: Conspiracies
  • Knowledge: Literature
  • Knowledge: Philosophy
  • Knowledge: Pilot
  • Knowledge: Edged Weapons (knives)
  • Advanced Intelligence Gathering Methods
  • First Aid
  • Knowledge: Human Nature
  • Law Enforcement*

Powers:
  • Indomitable Will: The CSM has a will which simply astounds: He cannot be intimidated, he cannot be swayed, and he can ignore certain things simply out of principal and his position within the conspiracies. For the purposes of the game, the CSM can substitute his Psyche score for any Psyche or Intuition effect FEAT he has to make. This does not mean the CSM can avoid damage or significant physical effects, it means simply that he cannot be affected, made afraid, or other game effects dealing with willpower or emotional control without having the ability to roll on the higher column. This ability explains how the CSM is able to effectively deal with various effects he's under. It is clearly stated by Chris Carter that the CSM is immune to fear of death in any way shape or form (cited from various sources). Even when facing his own death, the CSM seemed 'eh' about it.
  • Ghost in the Machine: Outside of a select few, there are no records of the CSM anywhere (which explains his popularity score). The Lone Gunmen were only able to produce a record they *thought* was accurate on the CSM, which was contradicted by evidence later on. The CSM has the authority to operate, but no one really knows who he is or what his purpose is.

Contacts:
At different points throughout his, the CSM has had unparalleled access and support from the Federal government and the conspiracies (specifically the Syndicate) within. The CSM has access at different points in the series to Mn (75) resources (The whole Federal level), and will always ensure the Buffalo Bills will never go to the Super Bowl and win.

Limitations:
  • Overconfident: The CSM is extraordinarily overconfident, which has been his failing at different points.
  • Enemies: The CSM has a multitude of enemies, ranging from Mulder and Scully to other high-connected members within the Syndicate.
  • Obsession: The CSM is seemingly obsessed with keeping all details of his life private, except when writing.
  • Obsession: Fox Mulder: The CSM is obsessed with Fox Mulder at different points due to a private connection.
  • Trademark: The CSM is usually seen smoking, specifically Morley cigarettes (Hence his name).
