Henry

Most popular boy in school. He is also the leader on The Purple Hand Gang. The gang can be violently aggressive, adventurous and even sometimes arrogant, due to tantrums and hostile nature, particularly toward his angelic yet utterly shy younger brother Perfect Peter. Fascinated by the monstrous, beastly and grotesque, Henry's primary interests consist of violent programming and monsters, and his short temper has intimidated his parents. It is made obvious that they actually favour Peter over Henry, judging by the forms of discipline to which Henry is subjected as a result of his hostility and the complaints of his behaviour made by his mother and father. Even though his family, some classmates and most teachers think he's horrid, when actually he is not a bad person, he actually has a good heart and sometimes shows that he cares a lot about his family and even Peter. When denied his wishes, Henry has been known to conspire against authority or any interferences when acquiring his desires, often flinging himself into violent, deafening tantrums and screaming. His Great Aunt Greta thinks that Henry is a little girl called Henrietta, despite being told countless times otherwise. This may be an unintentional source of Henry's anger. Henry wears a blue T-shirt with a yellow stripe, blue jeans and green sneakers. Leader of the Purple Hand Gang, Henry continuously exposes Peter to malicious verbal abuse, domineering him and deceiving him continuously. Among his closest playmates are similarly-arrogant children such as Rude Ralph, though he viciously contempts Moody Margaret and frequently plots against her. Henry is also known for the fact that his infamous schemes constantly backfire on him, and because of this, he has been subjected to numerous comeuppances in the past. Though Henry continuously fails in all his plights, he has succeeded many times. However, he does care about Peter's safety occasionally, showing that he isn't void of compassion.

Margret

She is one of the most popular girls in school.

Moody Margaret is a moody girl who is always fussing and wanting to get her own way. Her best friend is Sour Susan and Margaret also lives next door to Horrid Henry. She has magenta hair in a spiky ponytail. Henry and Margaret are enemies; Margaret has a secret club and Henry has a purple hand gang fort. She has an ability of screaming and always competes with Henry. She wears a violet tank top with white stripes, green cardigan and a bottle-green skirt. Margaret, however, occasionally assists Henry in his plans but gets her own way when to the consequences of the action.

They may be enemies but could they be more?
