Readers' Guide

(Numbers in parentheses indicate the running count of characters for the entire story.)

Kimberly's fighting style is similar to Buffy's - A reference to the fact that Sarah Michelle Gellar's stunt double on Buffy the Vampire Slayer used to be Amy Jo Johnson's stunt double on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. Her name is Sophia Crawford.

Agent Pendrell (49) - A young FBI Agent who had an unrequited crush on Dana Scully. He was killed in the X-Files fourth season episode "Max" when he got shot by an assassin trying to kill Scully and a witness she was protecting.

Mr. X (50) - He was never referred to as "Mr. X" on screen during any of his X-Files appearances. Actually, he was never referred to by any name at all. In keeping with that practice, he is left unnamed in this story. Mr. X, or whatever his name really was, appeared several times to give Mulder and Scully information or to manipulate them into doing his bidding. He was killed in the opening episode of the fourth season, "Herrenvolk." In his dying moments, Mr. X used his own spilled blood to scrawl a final message for Mulder. He was played by Steven Williams.

The alien bounty hunter (51) - He first appeared in the X-Files second season episode "Colony" and has reappeared from time to time since then. Something in the biochemistry of his species, whatever that is, produces toxic fumes (from a human perspective, anyway) when his body is punctured.

Luke - The vampire Luke doesn't appear in this story, because Buffy killed him in the episode "The Harvest." However, Luke was played by the same actor who plays the alien bounty hunter, Brian Thompson, which explains Buffy's confusion.
