Darin Peter Oswald (played by Giovanni Ribisi) was a teenager who attained the ability to summon lightning and distort electrical signals. He used this power to kill cows and unexpectedly change traffic lights for his own amusement. He met Mulder and Scully after killing someone outside an arcade he frequented. During the investigation, he also killed his friend Bart Liquori.
Oswald claimed to be madly in love with his special education teacher, Sharon Kiveat, and tried to take her away from her husband. However, while trying to escape with her, Kiveat ran off and Oswald was taken into custody after being struck by a lightning summoned by his own frustration.
While Oswald was in custody at a mental hospital, Scully explained to Mulder that there was no physical proof that could have explained Oswald's abilities.
