FUNKY LITTLE BALD CHARACTER POLL ROUND 1, GROUP 4

these three may have chosen fields of work that might make them seem intimidating, but that couldn't be farther from the truth! when you look past the alchemy, or the supervillainy-in-training, or the being in the russian mob, you'll find a nice, hardworking, relatable, at least 2/3rds of them are gay i don't know about the other one, guy. but the question remains: who's the funkiest, littlest and baldest?

#second guy is from a book so i couldn't find a picture. the screenshot is from the comments on his wiki page #i love how clearly 10 years old they all are. it makes me smile. educate yourself first please #the alchemist #venture bros #nigel darkdoom #h.i.v.e. #higher institute of villainous education #noho hank #hbo barry

❤️ ✂️ 💎 for the scary doctor god Thing :D

Hi and thanks for the ask (ask game here)! I take it you want Apollo, which means it's a good time to introduce them! Here's a lovely commission piece I got of them from @hummelimhimmel :

Apollo's an OC for the H.I.V.E. fandom and is best described as G.L.O.V.E.'s head of prisoner care, the leader of the League's in-house medical organization (the Hippocratic Collective-yes the name is a pun), and at one time Overlord's personal doctor, back when he was stuck in Number One's body. Interestingly, there's also several Apollos- the current Apollo is replaced (AKA killed) by their protege Acolyte when they grow too old or breaking certain rules. Now that that's out of the way, the questions!

There are two Apollos I use frequently, so I'll answer for them both: Angel-Apollo, who was the first and Overlord's doctor, and SOOF-Apollo, or the version used in @wing-shot-first 's Sight of Our Future, in which a more modern, more adaptable Apollo appears. ❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories? Angelpollo: The case before Overlord kidnapped them; they successfully managed to remove a series of difficult brain tumors from a young patient and saved their life. They were very proud of that case, even if it caught Overlord's attention. SOOFpollo: The first time Sylvester (@wing-shot-first's) trusted them enough to fall asleep around them.

✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories? Angelpollo: The night Overlord took them- their practice exploded, they got a serious concussion, and spent a good chunk of the night in a trunk. Not fun at all. SOOFpollo: The final battle with the Syndicate; there was a lot of death and good G.L.O.V.E. operatives were lost that day. 💎 - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC? Angelpollo: They do canonically die already, I'm just not sure when- but eventually they break enough of their own rules that their Acolyte decides it's time for them to go. SOOFpollo:...They're too fun to kill off I'm afraid. Thanks again for the ask!

#hello hi here i am again #you guys have no idea how much i adore Apollo i LOVE them #they are a MENACE to society but also just weird #thats what happens when Overlord makes your work culture #higher institute of villainous education #h.i.v.e. #h.i.v.e #h.i.v.e. series #h.i.v.e. oc #overlord #number one #apollo #Angelpollo #SOOFpollo #bees ocs #if yall have any non-emoji asks feel free to share those too

Quick rundown of the Malpense sibs

#H.I.V.E. #Higher Institute of Villainous Education #Otto Malpense #Zero Malpense #Anna Malpense #Zero does canonically wear a suit so I put some Suit-Like details on #Otto didn’t even graduate he only gets five studs #Anna’s eye color is supposed to be ‘deep blue’ but idk if walden was trying to be poetic for something other than blue #zero’s eye color is just Not Blue #so I fucked around with those a bit #h.i.v.e

Hi, yes, I finally read Bloodline (part of it anyways) and I would die for Maximilian Nero, thank you very much.

(I don’t know if any of my followers have read H.I.V.E, but if you love Artemis Fowl, I’d strongly recommend it. ‘Schools for villains’ is always fun to play around with)

#h.i.v.e. #higher institute of villainous education #maximilian nero #doctor nero #ah yes the original blorbo #I adore him dearly he cannot go a single book without serious injury. someone help him. #he actually has very little in the way of a canon description but I have decided he is Hot. also no confirmed eye color means heterochromia #because why not it’s cool. #my art

I will never get over the fact that technically, Otto Malpense is both Wing Fanchu AND H.I.V.E.mind's nephew. Cuz Overlord made Otto. And H.I.V.E.mind and Overlord share the same base code and have referred to each other as brothers. And Wing and overlord both have Cypher and Xiu Mei Chen as their parents. So technically, they're all related.

[decepti-geek]

on the one hand, Nero thwarting the escape attempt is him proving that a bunch of teenagers were stupid for thinking that they could outwit him, but on the other it's also that one video of that mother cat at a rescue centre who's like "no, ALL the kittens go in this box with ME"

♫ hivemind (for a real one lol)

OKAY SO, I have two songs for H.I.V.E.mind, but I am already making a post about one of them (I haven't touched it in a while though lol) so I'll only talk about the other one.

I think Emotional by Sub-Radio reminds me of him. The whole song is about getting messy because of your emotions, but also there's this specific line:

As my software glitches again, losing function Can't make a Decision

That's soooo him!! It makes me think a lot of those moments when H.I.V.E.mind struggles to choose between what he feels he should do or what he is programmed to do. My beloved little blue.

For the art requests,,,,, perhaps a Ms Leon,,,, or maybe Wing or Cypher 👀👀👀

unfortunately for wing and cypher, i've been mainly rotating (in my mind) leon, so she gets the fanart first. also, i know she's not mentioned to keep kali's (hope i'm remembering her cat's name right) eyes when she gets her own body back, and probably especially not the teeth, but like. she can be an evil catgirl.

...realising that the brush i'm using kind of makes this resemble a pencil drawing on paper. it's definitely not, i haven't drawn on paper in a long time

#when was the last time i drew leon at all? hold on #IT'S BEEN ABOUT A YEAR oh my god. oh no. tragedy. tabitha leon from the children's book series h.i.v.e. im so sorry #also i know this face shape is somewhat the same as i've been drawing a lot recently. trying to see what works for human faces #h.i.v.e. #h.i.v.e. fanart #higher institute of villainous education #art #digital art #drawing #digital drawing #i'll probably draw wing or cypher at some point! but for now. leon

[beebrainedstudios]

H.I.V.E. still has a death grip on my creative motivation (and probably will for a while), so here’s a little something I rustled up for a contest a while back- a redesign of the American cover of The Overlord Protocol, complete with Cypher in his full villainous glory! (Spoilers in the tags, btw!)

Here’s a look at the original cover, for reference:

Credit be to the original artist for it and the title and series title section; I did some cropping and cutting to pull those pieces out since I wouldn’t be able to replicate the font with my program. I love the OG cover btw, but I felt at least one of the H.I.V.E. books should have an antagonist on the cover for villainy’s sake. It was a real blast trying to figure out how to replicate the artist’s style, including all the little variations that showed up as the series went on, and I also played around a lot with perspective to try and give it the most action-packed look possible. Just a very entertaining project all around. Fun fact- I draw Cypher in what is essentially a teched-up motorcycle helmet since the “oval mask of black glass” doesn’t feel like it’d conceal his identity as well to me (some other artists make it work really well, but I wanted my design to look a little different, so here we are). Enjoy!

#cypher and his terrible attempts at problem solving #as per usual #the struggle is real between making him look like a scary villain #and an edgier version of a power ranger #which honestly kind of fits his overplayed secret identity thing i suppose #higher institute of villainous education #h.i.v.e. #h.i.v.e. fanart #h.i.v.e. series #h.i.v.e #cypher #h.i.v.e. cypher #wu zhang #another fun fact- the rifle looks weird for a reason #if you've read the books you'll know why #was it technically a pistol? #sure but i forgot that part and this looked cooler anyways #tw gun

Title: H.I.V.E.

Author: Mark Walden

Series or standalone: series

Publication year: 2007

Genres: fiction, science fiction, adventure, fantasy, mystery

Blurb: Otto Malpense may be only thirteen years old, but so far, he has managed to run the orphanage where he lives, and he has come up with a plan clever enough to trick the most powerful man in the country. He is the perfect candidate to become the world’s next supervillain. That is why he ends up at H.I.V.E., handpicked to become a member of the incoming class. The students have been kidnapped and brought to a secluded island inside a seemingly active volcano, where the school has resided for decades. All the kids are elite - they are the most athletic, the most technically advanced, and the smartest in the country. Inside the cavernous marble rooms, floodlit hangars, and steel doors, the students are enrolled in Villainy Studies and Stealth and Evasion 101...but what Otto soon comes to realise is that this is a six-year program, and leaving is not an option. With the help of his new friends - an athletic martial arts expert, a beautiful and world-famous diamond thief, and a spunky computer genius (the only other people who seem to want to leave) - can Otto achieve what has never been done before and break out of H.I.V.E.?
