Captain Hardaker was the captain of the starship Titanic.
Hardaker was blackmailed by Max Capricorn into magnetising the hull and deactivating the shields, which, in turn, would promptly attract an incoming asteroid shower, for the purpose of asteroids would hit the vessel. He took part in the plan because he was dying of an unidentified illness which gave him a mere six months to live, meaning if he cooperated with Capricorn and died, he would have little to lose. Additionally, in exchange for his cooperation, he was promised his family would receive a great deal of money.
Personality
Very little is known about Hardaker's personality, apart from when Midshipman Alonso Frame tried to reactivate the shields, he didn't hesitate to hold him at gunpoint after two clear warnings to step away from its controls when trying to reactivate them for a first time, only stopping on the second warning. Very shortly after, he tried to reactivate them again, after crying out "It's my duty!" Hardaker then shot him without a third warning. Before doing so, he did lament that he had been promised a crew of old men who had had their time, not boys. Although Hardaker was killed when the ship was struck, Frame survived the gunshot wound, continuing to keep the ship engines up and running, much to Capricorn's astonishment. (TV: Voyage of the Damned)
