Subject: Archivist A113, “Stella”

One of the oldest and most experienced field Archivists, Stella began her career as a model and actress in Hollywood in the early 1960s. While citing specific films would constitute a violation of Archival encoding norms, Stella is often quick to point out that she “has won major awards” and “dated John Ford.” Her career ended during the filming of a B-movie Western in 1965, when she and her film crew inadvertently discovered AC-1965-NA-7 in the Sonora desert about 8 miles outside of Slaughter Gulch. Stella survived the incident, albeit with permanent scarring and the loss of her right eye. Her coolness and effectiveness in helping to contain, catalog, and process AC-1965-NA-7 despite the death, disfigurement, or absorption of close friends and coworkers led to her recruitment as part of the second class of A-level archivists.

Despite approaching age 80, Stella has repeatedly refused to retire or to pursue desk work and remains a committed field Archivist. Despite her known proclivity for rough language, practical jokes, and light hazing, she has repeatedly proven to be an excellent mentor and recruiter despite her advancing age. It remains unclear if her apparent spryness for her age is a result of her exposure to AC-1965-NA-7; she certainly does not seem to have suffered any ill effects or age stasis despite the encounter, and other than the aforementioned scars and single-eye blindness appears to be a normal human woman of her age and background.

Personnel Notes From Head Archivist:
If Stella asks if you want to see her scars, you do not. While she possesses scars similar to those sometimes seen on survivors of lightning strikes over 60% of her body, they are concentrated on her posterior–something that seems to amuse her to no end. If Stella asks you whether you want to see under her eyepatch, you really do not. Archivist A1994 still has not fully recovered.
