Abby Sciuto
Played by: Pauley PerretteBio
Abby Sciuto is the forensic specialist on NCIS.
She is, in the words of NCIS agent Tony DiNozzo, "a paradox wrapped in an oxymoron smothered in contradictions in terms."
Sciuto's gothic style of dress and her interest in death and the supernatural enigmatically contrast with a generally positive, hyperactive demeanor.
Abby is depicted as fiercely loyal to her team and even considers them family, which frequently leaves her distressed when danger arises on the show.
Abby has at least 11 tattoos on her neck, arms, back, ankle and other places. She is often seen with her stuffed hippo named "Bert" that makes farting noises when squeezed.
Born to deaf parents, she likes her music loud. Like boss Gibbs, with whom she is close, Abby enjoys caffeine, primarily in the form of a fictional drink called "Caf-Pow."
Sciuto graduated with full honors from LSU with a triple major in sociology, criminology and psychology.
She has her master's degree from Georgia State University in criminology and forensic science.
Abby's unusual outlook on life comes into play often in the series - always luckily for us!

I love NCIS. I watch it everyday. Abby is my favorite character on the show. People at work say that " You look like Abby from NCIS" I guess it is how I do my hair and wear the black and make up. I like it that way. Its me being comfortable the only way I can be. I love this show and I hope it stays and never dies...

Just saw a rerun of NCIS episode in which Gibbs' military service number is written in the blood of a murder victiom.....turns out it was done by the son of the woman in Columbia that saved Gibbs life 18 years prior. Abby compares that message to Gibbs to the Bat Signal appearing in the sky to call Batman for help. She goes on to mention an actor that portrayed both Batman's mentor (don't know which movie she meant; might have meant the TV show) and Obi One's mentor in Star Wars, probably in one of the prequels. I didn't catch that actor's name; got me curious. Any help?
