Simone Duval

Dr. Simone Duval is a French marine biologist and head of the Verne Research Center, an underwater observation base.

Physical appearance
Duval has chin-length blonde hair and fair skin. She wears black-framed glasses and a blue jumpsuit.

Personality
Dr. Duval is hard working and friendly. She has a deep desire to discover and explore regardless of the consequences, which leads to her unfortunate death.

History
Benton Quest arrives at the base to oversee the progress, and Dr. Duval shows him and his team around, although she is concerned that he could shut down her project.

After an earthquake releases some amphibious cave dwellers that attack the base, Duval becomes fascinated with the creatures, and begins to risk her own safety to try to learn more about them. When one of the creatures breaks into the control room, Duval has to be forcibly dragged out by Dr. Quest. Duval, Quest, and the control room personnel escape into partially flooded plexiglass underwater walkway where Quest used a live wire, thrown into the water, to electrocute the creatures. Shortly afterward, Jonny Quest and Jessie Bannon arrive in a submarine to rescue them, but Duval refuses to leave without a specimen. She goes to retrieve the body of one of the electrocuted creatures, but the creature is unexpectedly still alive, and it awakens and kills her.
