The Seasons on The X-Files
Special Agent Fox William Mulder

Mulder and his partner Special Agent Dana Scully work in the FBI’s X-files office, which is concerned with cases with particularly mysterious or possibly supernatural circumstances that were marked as unsolvable and shelved by the FBI. Mulder considers the X-files and the truth behind the supposed conspiracy so important that he has made their study the main purpose of his life.
Special Agent Dana Katherine Scully
Dana Scully is an FBI special agent, a medical doctor, and scientist who is Mulder’s partner. In contrast to his credulity, Scully is a skeptic, basing her beliefs on scientific explanations.
However, despite her otherwise rigid skepticism, she is a Catholic, and her faith plays an important role in several episodes. As Scully works along side Mulder, she becomes more open to the possibility of paranormal happenings.
