Hive

"Thousands of years ago, an Inhuman was born on this planet that was destined to rule it, so powerful, so fearsome that others were consumed with dread, and so they banished It from the Earth, sent It through the portal to a distant planet. HYDRA was founded with the sole purpose of engineering its return."

- Gideon Malick

Hive is a centuries old Inhuman. Feared by other inhumans, Hive was banished to another world.

Powers

 * Environmental Manipulation: Hive had the ability to create sandstorms to confuse and isolate potential victims. Hive also widened a canyon to prevent Jemma Simmons and Will Daniels from reaching a wormhole, possibly by causing an earthquake.
 * Body Possession: Hive has the ability to possess people after infesting the bodies of the dead and using them as vessels for which it can perform basic actions. Hive possessed Taylor and attacked Will Daniels, while also forcing Austin and Brubaker to commit suicide. Later, Hive possessed the corpse of an astronaut to try and fool Jemma Simmons, then possessed Daniels' corpse to try and trick Leo Fitz into letting him leave the planet. Hive can apparently also halt or slow the natural decomposition of a host body, given that it had been inhabiting Daniels' body for months. Hive also appears to have access to all of the hosts' memories and behavior, as he was able to successfully imitate Daniels during its earlier encounter with Fitz and relay information about Daniels' time with Simmons. Will explained that Hive makes people go "insane".
 * Longevity: Hive's ability to inhabit the bodies of others has enabled it to survive for centuries.
