    A hyperconic in a projective plane \(\pi\) of characteristic two is the set of points of a non-singular conic plus the nucleus. Any two intersect in 4, 5, or 6 points. A quadrangle \(Q\) in \(\pi\) has a line \(\ell\) of diagonal points and every conic through the vertices of \(Q\) has its nucleus on \(\ell\). The corresponding set of hyperconics is the pencil of the title. Various properties of such a pencil are obtained.
