Who they are
An astrophysicist whose specialism keeps turning out to be the thing that ends the world. Selvig builds the device that opens the portal over New York while under Loki's control, loses his mind for a while afterwards, and comes back to the work anyway — which is either resilience or the same problem recurring.
