The thing you should know about Elf Agent X is that Agent X is not his real name.

First of all, no mother would ever name their kid Agent X.

But more importantly, this elf has a very important job that requires a little secrecy. After all, Elf Agent X is the Director of North Pole Security. That means he protects Santa when he travels and he leads efforts to keep the North Pole safe.

If you have ever listened to North Pole Radio News on Christmas Eve you know that Santa faces all kinds of trouble when he ventures out into the world. Some try to kidnap him – you know, to have Santa at their Christmas parties. Sometimes Santa may not be welcome in some countries and faces trouble from fighter jets in the skies. Other times there might be other kinds of security related incidents that come up that would impede his progress.

It is the job of Elf Agent X and North Pole Security to find out about these things and to prevent them from stopping Santa. It’s a tricky job. It is also an elf job that you don’t often hear much about. Everything is always kind of secret with these guys in North Pole Security.

Elf Agent X won’t tell us much about his personal life and none of us here know him well. He keeps pretty much to himself. But he keeps a plant on his desk that he sometimes calls “Wanda”. He talks to her from time to time and everyone admires Wanda because she is always green — year round.

We never see Agent X give her water or food. Everything about Elf Agent X and Wanda is a mystery to us.
