Biography
Hive
Six years ago, a candidate for the Hive host was sought from the California-based recruitment centre known as Ravenous. This recruit was chosen due to his low white-blood content that meant rejection to the parasites was low and his low intelligence meant that he would be easily overcome. Thus, he was chosen to take part in the experiment with Ms. Fischer escorting to the special program where they travelled to The Hive facility located deep underwater. Once there, the candidate was stripped where he was led into a chamber filled with parasite pods that latched onto the host and consume his body against his will. This left him in agonising pain as the creatures slowly took control over his body in a process that took years until the original host personality was long gone. The Kraken and Baron Strucker both were present as the parasite gained his host body and went through the transformative process. (Secret Warriors v1 #12)
Madame Hydra Elisa Sinclair with Black Ant and Taskmaster travelled to a Hydra temple where she summoned Hive whereupon she sent him on a mission of violence. The creature later joined her and sat at the table of the new High Coucil of Hydra. (Captain America: Steve Rogers v1 #14)
Overview
Personality and attributes
Powers and abilities
Hive was a genetically engineered parasite designed to latch onto host bodies and gain dominance over them. Initially, Hydra lacked the means to breed and centrally control the parasites with the solution being finding a host body. Upon latching onto a body, the host's mind would eventually cease to exist with the form and the parasite developing sentience thus effectively forming a group consciousness. The physical transformation was noted to be quick but the higher brain functions took time to complete. The circulatory system took quite sometime to be properly transformed. The parasites tended to want to feel the host's pain so as to continue to produce adrenaline with the higher brain functions being the last to be subsumed into the creature. (Secret Warriors v1 #12)
It was possible for the Hive to evolve over time with the host and parasite capable of spawning a third or fourth mutation variation. (Secret Warriors v1 #12)
Notes
- Hive was created by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev where he made his first appearance in Secret Warriors v1 #2 (May, 2009).

One of the first Inhumans, he was now known as Alveus where the Terrigenesis process was intended to turn him into a supersoldier where he was transformed into mass of cellular parasites that inhabited the bodies of the dead where they gained the memories of the body in the process. He was able to disguise himself as a human but could manifest a more alien form that contained numerous protruding tentacles.
