Fitzwilliam Darcy
If you don't know who he is, you shouldn't
be reading a Pride and Prejudice sequel.
Georgiana Darcy
Darcy's younger, unmarried sister.
Charles Bingley
Darcy's close friend, engaged to Jane
Bennet. A gentleman of 5,000 pounds a year. No, that's not his weight.
Caroline Bingley
Charles's older sister, unmarried at 29.
Mrs. Louisa Hurst (née
Bingley)
Charles Bingley's oldest sister, married
to Mr. Hurst.
Mr. Bennet
The father of five daughters, one married
and two engaged. His goal: to outlive the Old Took.
Mrs. Bennet (née
Gardiner)
Mr. Bennet's wife and the harried mother
of five daughters. Her goal: See all her daughters married, scandalously on
occasion.
Jane Bennet
The Eldest and most beautiful Bennet
daughter, engaged to Mr. Bingley.
Elizabeth Bennet
The second Bennet daughter, engaged to -
look, just go read Pride and Prejudice. There, I said it and I'm not
taking it back.
Mary Bennet
The middle daughter, known for her
middle-child syndrome and middle-child piano playing. Unmarried.
Kitty (Catherine) Bennet
The fourth daughter, and probably where
Mrs. Bennet gave up on having a son. Unmarried.
Lydia Wickham (née
Bennet)
The only married daughter, albeit it was a
shotgun wedding, with Darcy holding the metaphorical shotgun.
Relatives,
Friends, and Enemies
George Wickham
Colonel, gambler, seducer of young women,
and we can guess not a very faithful husband to Lydia Wickham.
Mr. Hurst
Mrs. Hurst's husband. Good to have around
if you need someone passed out at your party.
Thomas Collins
Mr. Bennet's nephew and heir to the estate
of Longbourn. I would explain the law of entail but it's actually pretty
boring.
Charlotte Collins (née
Lucas)
Mr. Collin's long-suffering wife. You
know, the one you deride in English class because she "settled."
Mr. Gardiner
Mrs. Bennet's brother, a tradesman who
owns a house in on Gracechurch Street, in the unfashionable area of London.
Mrs. Gardiner
Elizabeth's confident and designated
"moral-supporter" when Jane couldn't tow the line.

Lord James Kincaid
Caroline Bingley's suitor. A Scottish earl
who made a fortune in Australia.
Robert Kincaid
The younger brother of James Kincaid and
heir to the earldom should his brother kick the bucket.
Fiona Kincaid
A highlander with a mysterious connection
to the Kincaid family.
Dr. Daniel Maddox
The near-destitute doctor and surgeon who
treats Mr. Hurst and quite possibly has a larger role in the plot.
Brian Maddox
The other brother of Daniel Maddox, and
the one who lost the family fortune gambling and is hiding from his
creditors in Europe.
