H.I.V.E., which stands for the Higher Institute of Villainous Education, is a Villain Protagonist series by Mark Walden about, as the title suggests, a school for villains. The series consists of nine books (plus a short World Book Day story) but, due to No Export for You, the last six volumes have only been released recently in America. The author, Mark Walden, seems to enjoy his fanbase, and has a blog, a small forum, and a separate email account for fans. Online, there is little evidence to show the books' popularity, but H.I.V.E.'s forum is bursting with enthusiastic members.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })There were four main characters of H.I.V.E., but it has expanded with about twelve protagonists and antagonists share roughly equal amounts of narration time. The original four heroes are Otto, the main character; Wing, Otto's Chinese best friend; Laura, the Scottish computer hacker; and Shelby, the American lock-picking genius. Book four introduced Lucy, mind-controlling granddaughter of a character killed in book 3. In the secondary character section(all of whom have now joined the main tier), we have Nigel, son of famous deceased supervillain Diabolus Darkdoom, Number One's replacement when he goes all crazy and dies, who is very good with plant life and biology; and Franz, the German son of an owner of a chocolate factory. He's very good with finance and also serves as the team sniper. Later on, Tom and Penny, Otto's old accomplices from the orphanage, join the group. Then, in Deadlock, Tom dies, leaving Penny distanced from the group.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A notable addition is H.I.V.E.mind, a benevolent AI who assists in running the school. He is friends with a few of the student protagonist, and acts more like the children than their teachers. In the later books, the characters Nero, headmaster of H.I.V.E.; and his assistant Raven, Nero's Russian bodyguard/head of security/confidante; along with a couple of other teachers, are added closer to the list of main characters.The enemies of the main characters are described in greater detail in the later books as well, with approximately equal portions of each book being narrated by heroes and villains.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The books currently released are: | |
