Basic Info| Name: | FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder |
|---|---|
| Birthdate: | 10-13 |
| Location: | United States |
BioFBI Special Agent Mulder stands at 6' tall, weighs about 170lb and has green eyes, and believes in UFOs and a government conspiracy to hide or deny the truth of their existence. With his FBI partner Dana Scully, the two work in the X-Files office, which is concerned with cases with particularly mysterious or possibly supernatural circumstances that were left unsolved and shelved by the FBI. Mulder considers the X-Files and the truth behind the supposed conspiracy so important that he has made them the main purpose of his life. He lives alone near Washington, D.C. Mulder's basement office is decorated with photographs, newspaper articles and other materials pertaining to conspiracy theories, extraterrestrial life, and other supernatural phenomena. Among the collection is a picture of Deloys monkey, a newspaper article about Duane Barry, Max Fenig's NICAP hat, and, a poster depicting a flying saucer with the words "I Want to Believe". When in need of extra assistance, Mulder goes to various friends/contacts with expertise in different areas. The Lone Gunmen, three conspiracy theorists/computer hackers/tabloid newspaper publishers, are his most trusted friends, after Scully. The trio is generally sought after when he or Scully are in need of more techno-savvy assistance. The Lone Gunmen, in turn, have their own contacts. Mulder tends to conduct his investigations with blatant disregard for rules and regulations, sometimes even breaking the law. He continuously accuses Bureau authorities of hiding the truth and has on a number of occasions infiltrated restricted military bases and other secret facilities, leading to official reprimands and suspensions on more than one occasion. He is often at risk of being fired - however, he is usually able to keep his job through the help of various benefactors. --- Details Current Address: Apartment 42, 2630 Hegal Place Alexandria, VA 23242 Phone number: (202) 555-9355 Cellphone number: (202) 555-0160 Badge Number: JTT047101111 Social security number: 123-32-1321 Computer Password: TRUSTNO1 Pseudonyms: Wrote an article in "Omni" about the Gulf Breeze sighting, under the name M.

Fox William Mulder was born to Bill Mulder and Teena Mulder in Massachusetts. Cigarette Smoking Man is Mulder's biological father. He has a younger sister, Samantha Mulder, and a half brother Jeffrey Spender. His first words, at 11 months, were "JFK", and he grew up in Chilmark, Massachusetts. The Mulder family had a summer house in Quonochontaug, RI, where Fox and Samantha would play during summer vacations. He apparently had an active childhood, full of neighborhood baseball games; he played in right field, and tree climbing - where he once came face to face with a praying mantis, an incident which terrified him and fostered an intense dislike for insects. He also developed an all-consuming fear of fire when his friend's house burned to the ground and they had to stay in the rubble all night to ward off looters. He had nightmares for years regarding that incident, but overcame his fear in later years. Mulder apparently enjoyed science fiction as a kid, dressing as Mr. Spock from Star Trek in childhood, and watching The Magician. In his teenage years, Mulder was also very excited about space. Although he says he never wanted to be an astronaut, he was delighted to meet an ex-astronaut during one of his investigations and admitted that watching a shuttle launch fulfilled one of his boyhood dreams. When his younger sister, Samantha was eight, she disappeared mysteriously from their home in Chilmark, Massachusetts on Martha's Vineyard, an event which had a severe impact on the Mulder family, especially Fox. The subsequent investigation into her disappearance turned up no evidence. Soon after, Mulder's parents divorced. In earlier accounts, Samantha was said to have disappeared while the Mulder family was on vacation near Lake Okoboji in Iowa. Mulder's memories of the event are not necessarily to be trusted. Mulder himself doubts the reliability of this memory, suspecting his recollection of the abduction may have been due to "an elaborate staging of events," or even entirely fabricated. |
The disappearance of Mulder's sister and his search for her soon after became the main consuming drive of his life. Mulder graduated from high school -- where his foreign language of choice was French and entered Oxford University to study psychology. After university, Mulder entered the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. On graduating from the Academy, Mulder started his work in the Behavioral Science Unit (psychological profiling) under Agent Bill Patterson, with whom he had a testing relationship. Around this time he wrote a monograph on serial killers and the occult, which helped catch serial killer Monty Props. This, coupled with his successful capture of such dangerous criminals as John L. Roche and Luther Lee Boggs, made Mulder something of an intra-Bureau legend. At some point, Mulder started working as a field agent of the Violent Crimes division under Agent Reggie Purdue. Mulder did, for a short time, worked as both a profiler and a field agent. During Mulder's first case as a field agent a fellow FBI agent died during a standoff with a suspect, and Mulder later blamed himself for sticking to the FBI protocol, which he felt didn't allow him to prevent the agent's death. His partner in violent crimes was Jerry Lamana, whose incompetence and self-serving agenda led to him misplacing evidence which resulted in the maiming of a federal judge. In his later FBI career, Mulder always showed varying degrees of disregard for rules. Fox Mulder appears to be a very talented and remarkable agent. Scully claimed she'd heard of Mulder by reputation, and that he is "brilliant." Even Patterson, who doesn't like Mulder, says he's a "cracked genius". Mulder was talked about at the FBI even while he was still in the Academy, as he was always "three jumps ahead" of others. Mulder got the nickname "Spooky," presumably from a combination of his unnatural insights into the psychology of serial killers and other violent criminals, and his interest in the paranormal. |
At one point, Mulder was sprayed with an experimental drug that causes hallucinations and paranoia. Mulder started talking about aliens and conspiracies, although his previous interest in such things was not as active. The following month, Mulder underwent regressive hypnosis in attempt to remember what happened when Samantha disappeared. After that, Mulder started displaying a fanatical interest in the paranormal. Mulder continued to work in the Violent Crimes department, pursuing his paranormal interests in his spare time. It was then that he learned a great deal about the X-Files from former FBI agent Arthur Dales and soon after, Mulder "discovered" the X-Files, and re-opened them with Agent Diana Fowley. Agent Fowley transferred away shortly thereafter, leaving Mulder the only agent to work on the X-Files. A few months later, Dana Scully was assigned to the X-Files as a partner to Mulder, with the assignment to use her background in hard science to apply scientific reasoning and expertise to evaluating Mulder's work with the X-Files. |
Mulder famously has a sardonic sense of humor even in the face of the most bizarre and dangerous phenomena, and his trademark dry jokes are characteristically glib or cynical. He is somewhat athletic and has an interest in sports, mostly baseball and basketball. He jogs regularly, and occasionally plays basketball and is skilled with a 3-point shot. He often bounces his basketball around his apartment whenever he's bored. His favorite professional teams are the New York Yankees and the New York Knicks, even though he grew up in Massachusetts. He likes to watch football and old science fiction movies, likes listening to classic rock music and is a great fan of Elvis. Mulder is a Dutch-American Protestant but he is not religious. Despite believing in a variety of paranormal phenomenon, Mulder is often openly scornful of organized religion. Mulder almost never sleeps in his bed. The bedroom in his apartment is used for storage and is filled floor to ceiling with junk, including a couple of boxes of pornographic magazines. Mulder prefers to sleep on his couch, often falling asleep to a blaring television. He normally watches porn to sleep; at other times, he does it out of boredom or habit. Mulder can seem to go through manic periods when worried or working on a case, contributing to or exacerbating his insomniac tendencies. Mulder has a rather poor sense of direction - he sometimes goes through the wrong corridors in a building and can't use a map very well. Mulder isn't comfortable when in the country and dislikes nature to some extent. He rarely drinks alcohol, and in the few cases he does, he is so drunk that he behaves out of character. His favorite drink is iced tea. He says his famous penchant for sunflower seeds was passed down from his father. At home, Mulder does not appear to be particularly skilled in the culinary field. He usually eats take-out or frozen meals. Mulder's favored manner of dining at home involves eating food from his hands, over the sink. Mulder has a photographic memory, is a sharp shooter, suffers from pyrophobia and he is red-green colorblind; the inability to distinguish between red and green (seeing both as the same color but distinct and separate from other colors) but over time the brain naturally compensates by learning to distinguish subtle shades and to identify them, with a fair amount of accuracy, as either red or green, the same way we might learn degrees of light gray and dark gray. He also has a childhood fear of bugs. He disapproves the use of drugs when treating psychological disorders and says that he's not a Freudian. Mulder is fond of writing reports long hand. He can often be seen profiling, writing in pen on a note pad. |
Mulder: *spills coffee in his lap* That's great. Now my crotch is gonna be up all night. Scully: Oh my God, Mulder. It smells like... I think it's bile. Mulder: Is there any way I can get it off my fingers quickly without betraying my cool exterior? Scully: Our "friend" from the CIA is about as unbelievable as his story. As is everything about this case. I mean, whatever happened to "Trust no one"? Mulder: Oh, I changed it to "Trust everyone." Didn't I tell you? Mulder: Will you let me drive? Scully: I'm driving. Why do you always have to drive? Because you're the guy? Because you're the big Macho Man? Mulder: No, I was just never sure your little feet could reach the pedals. Mulder: Wow. Admit it, all you want to do is play house. Woman! Get back in here and make me a sandwich! *Scully throws a rubber glove at him* Did I not make myself clear? Scully: Mulder, this is a needle in a haystack. These poor souls have been dead for 50 years. Let them rest in peace. Let sleeping dogs lie. Mulder: Well I won't sit idly by while you hurl cliches at me. Preparation is the father of inspiration. Scully: Necessity is the mother of invention. Mulder: The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom. Scully: Eat, sleep, and be merry for tomorrow we die. Mulder: I scream, you scream, we all scream for nonfat tofutti rice dreamsicle. Skinner: Agent Mulder, Mr. Federman will accompany you today to Christ's Church where he will act as an observer on this case. You will extend to him every courtesy and protection you would a friend of mine and a friend of the Bureau's. Agent Scully, I require your services here for the morning. Mulder: Sir, have I pissed you off in a way that's more than normal? |
Special Agent Mulder is open for RP. We don't mind interacting with multiple X-Files muses, original characters, muses from different fandoms, aliens from outer space, etc etc etc. Feel free to add him as a friend. You can contact me through here. Mulder's prompts will be based off of cases seen in episodes of the television series and The X-Files movies, as well as those of my own creation. They will be labeled with the appropriate tags. |
Use brackets for OOC conversation, otherwise responses will be made IC. Expect slow IC responses from time to time - Mulder surfs the net a lot; he's probably watching uh porn or alien video autopsies online, or some such nonsense. Let your imagination roll. |
