This dangerously ruthless man remains an absolute enigma since we first saw him.
He has alternately warned, helped and hindered Mulder and Scully in their quest
for the truth. He has stated clearly that he has no intention of following the way
of his predecessor and will not risk his neck for them. From his no-nonsense style and
his use of deadly force, it is possible that X is somebody high up in the CIA or possibly
the NSA. When Mulder and Scully
investigate a scientist whose shadow has come a terrible weapon, X takes a key witness
away from them. Mulder tells him that they will not have anything to do with him, X
simply tells him that "it is a dangerous time to go it alone". We learn that he was
once like Mulder but now he plays the "game" and this game is a deadly one.
