Frank Richard Hardy |
| Frank is
twenty-years-old and majors in Criminology and Law
Enforcement/Computer Science. Living on campus with his
roommate and best friend, Connor MacKenzie, Frank is still finding
time even with his busy schedule to solve a mystery or four.
In my version of the things, Frank had leukemia when he was fifteen
and missed nearly a whole year of school - as a result he is in the
same grade as his brother, Joe. Frank was blinded in the story
"Walking into Darkness" and is learning to cope with his
disability. Frank is still charming,
intelligent, and very much in love with his new girlfriend, Samantha
Ellington. |

Joseph David Hardy |
| Joe
is nineteen-years-old and majors in Criminology and Law
Enforcement. Joe also lives on campus with freshman roommate
Eric Roberts and is one of the stars of the Bayport University
Knights Football Team. Joe is still out-going, handsome and
much the ladies man - or he would be a lady's man if he weren't so
devoted to his girlfriend, Vanessa Bender. Joe was thrown a
major curveball when his brother was blinded - but as always, he
handles the new challenge with class. Joe has a twin
sister, Mandy, with whom he is quite close. |

Amanda Nicole Hardy |
| Mandy
is also nineteen years old and majors in Art at Bayport
University. Mandy, as she's called by her friends, lives in
Eldridge hall with her roommate, Elizabeth. A spitfire who
doesn't usually take no for an answer and who has ways of getting
her own way, Mandy is intelligent and devoted to her twin brother,
Joe and to her family. Mandy has a boyfriend, Connor
MacKenzie, whom she's met since she came into college. Most
wise people try not to get on the bad side of Mandy's temper... |

Fenton Hardy |
| Fenton is the husband of
Laura and the father of Frank, Joe and Mandy and works, still, as a
detective and investigator, sometimes taking cases on the other side
of the world if that's who hires him. Fenton is a top-notch
investigator and is extremely capable of doing what he has to if it
means protecting his family. Very intelligent, Fenton has the
ability to 'profile' cases as they happen. |

Laura Hardy |
| Laura
is
the wife of Fenton and the mother of Frank, Joe and Mandy.
Laura is a devoted wife and mother - but that's not the end-all
be-all of her life. She is currently working with Andrea
Bender in her animation studio, doing accounting as well as taking
part in many good causes about Bayport. Laura inherited a
sizable chunk of money when her father passed away - but the Hardys,
for the most part, live off of Fenton's income. |

Connor Alexander MacKenzie |
| Connor is a
twenty-one year old college junior who majors in Chemistry.
Connor, the star and quarterback of the Bayport University football
team, dates Mandy Hardy and is roommates with her older brother,
Frank. Connor is laid back, easy-going and usually doesn't let
things get to him - including Mandy's temper. Connor is tall,
nearly six foot, four inches and a very devoted friend. |

Samantha Lindsay Ellington |
| Samantha is a
twenty-year-old college junior who majors in law. Sam, who met
Frank during her sophomore year, has been dating him ever
since. Samantha is intelligent, beautiful and very much in
love with Frank. She's quietly supportive and lends a hand
whenever she can. Samantha also lives in Eldridge Hall with
her roommate, Kaitlyn Matthews. |

Vanessa Diane Bender |
| Vanessa is a
nineteen-year-old college sophomore who is majoring in Computer
Science and Graphical Art at Bayport University. Vanessa, who
has been dating Joe since early into their senior year, is devoted
to him. A constant go-to person when it comes to computer
savvy, Vanessa is always willing to lend a hand in the Hardy's
investigations. She considers Mandy Hardy and Samantha
Ellington to be her best friends. Vanessa is perky, generous
and out-going and not usually intimidated by anyone. |

Chester Alan Morton
|
| Chet
is nineteen years old and the Hardys oldest friend. As usual
with his life, Chet can't quite figure out what he wants to do and
is onto his fourth major (this time Political Science). Chet
is still playing center on the football team and still a devoted
friend to the Hardys. Chet's luck has changed, however, in the
form of a girlfriend, Kaitlyn Matthews, whom he met in Australia. |

Kaitlyn Matthews |
| Kaitlyn is an
eighteen-year-old college freshman who just moved to the states from
Australia so that she could attend Bayport University. Kaitlyn,
who met Chet when he was in Australia for the Olympics, is dating
him. Kaitlyn is shy but sweet and is learning about life in
the States - and in being the friend of a friend of the Hardys. |

Jackson Royce Maidlin |
| Maidlin, always
called Maidlin, (usually in tones of disdain) is nineteen going on
twelve. Nobody is sure what he majors in, because he tends to
never be IN class, that anyone can tell. Jackson is the
Tauhausen Hall resident prankster - in fact, he considers it his
mission to make the lives of everyone in Tauhausen brighter and
happier whenever he can. People usually turn the other way
when they see him coming... |

Michael Freedman |
| Michael is twenty-one
years-old and serves as the Tauhausen Hall Resident Assistant - much
to his disdain he has found that he not only has Maidlin to contend
with but also the brothers Hardy, who seem to attract too much
trouble and attention for Michael's well-being. Michael majors
in accounting and makes friends easily - when he lets his guard down
that is. He would be much happier if the Hardys (and Maidlin)
would move back home... |

Jason (Jase Aleman) Rich |
| Jase is the
son of Malachi Rich and a student at Bayport University.
Friends with Michael Friedman, Jase seems to have a quirky, fun,
personality and makes friends easily - but he hides a dark side of
his personality - and a particular grudge against the brothers and
sister Hardy... |

Anna Phillips |
| Anna is a sophomore at
Bayport University. Seemingly shy and quiet, she is often seen
wearing a sweater of some sort (except on picture day of course) and
talking a mile a minute, supposedly to hide her nervousness.
Anna seems to have a major crush on Joe Hardy - at least that's what
it seems like until she's able to help Jason capture the pair of
them - then suddenly the true object of her desire is made known -
Frank. Anna is not connecting on all gears - in fact - she's
downright scary... |

Thomas Pankovic |
| Thomas is, well, not a
nice guy, as you can tell by the expression on his face (he says his
resemblance to 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin is strictly coincidental -
and if you ask him about it you might make him angry...). Pankovic used to work with Doctor Rich in the army and has spent
time in jail. His latest feats have been to cause considerable
amount of trouble to the Hardy Boys - especially Joe. Joe
would like to meet this guy in a dark alley sometime and give him
what-for... well... maybe. |
