On an appointed day of every year,
all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which
they will devote for the rest of their lives after taking a placement test.
The factions use certain serums to keep their virtues under control. Every serum is created by Erudite.
Take the official Divergent Aptitude test here:
Start Test
The Factions are: Dauntless (the brave) -Dauntless was a faction formed by those who blamed cowardice for society's problems. The only answer is to face your fears through bravery. The Dauntless value the virtue of bravery over any other, as such they train to fight and use weapons to prepare their bodies to respond to threats and challenges, which is necessary if they want to survive life as a Dauntless member. The faction also emphasizes the idea of freedom from fear, and test this daily by attempting death-defying feats. -Dauntless always dress in Black. -The Choosing Ceremony Substance for Dauntless is Hot Coals. -Dauntless uses Simulation Serum. Amity (the peaceful) -Amity is a faction that dislikes war, discord, and strife of any kind. They are a highly democratic faction, voting on almost everything. -The members wear comfortable red or yellow clothing. -Amity's Choosing Ceremony substance is a bowl of earth, symbolizing their dedication to the environment. -Amity uses Peace Serum. Erudite (the intelligent) -Erudite values the virtue of intelligence and wisdom over any other. The members focus their lives on the pursuit of knowledge. Erudite was formed by those who blamed human ignorance for the faults of society. They formed Erudite as a way of eliminating ignorance and darkness from human minds. -Each member must wear at least one article of blue clothing per day. -Erudite's Choosing Ceremony substance is water, symbolizing their desire for clarity. -Erudite use the Death Serum. Abnegation (the selfless) -Abnegation was formed by those who blamed selfishness for human nature's errors. They believe in selfless action and attaining peace through the elimination of selfishness. In doing so they are expected by the faction to devote themselves to only serving others. Abnegation value the virtue of selflessness over any other. Abnegation initiates are forced upon attaining membership to reject a life of vanity and self-indulgence, in theory to protect themselves from greed and envy. -Abnegation clothes are also typically very baggy. Gray robes, pants, and T-shirts are common dress. Women typically pin up their hair and men cut their hair short. -Abnegation's Choosing Ceremony substance is a pile of gray stones, which represent simplicity and humbleness. -the Serum for Abnegation is Memory Serum. Candor (the honest) -The Candor value honesty and cannot tell a lie. They say whatever is the truth, even if it gets them into trouble. Candor children are taught to speak their minds at every moment. -Candor members wear White. -Candor's Choosing Ceremony substance is glass, representing not only transparency but also that the truth can be cutting. -Candor Use Truth Serum.

The Freedom that comes with being able to say and respond any way she wishes sometimes gets her into trouble. but nothign she can't handle. She's Smart and quick-witted, often sarcastic and cruel/rude but in a way that can be arguably polite. As A Candor member she's always pissing someone off, and as such, she's come to Distrust everyone around her, especially those in Factions that can do more Damage than she can, Like Erudite and Dauntless. She doesn't like the Factionless, because of a small envy that they have more freedom than she does, technically, even if it is a lower standard of living.

Personality: Jean is crafty and sneaky, Because she has to be. She was born and raised Candor with her Sister Julia, (both Parents were born and raised Candor as well) She had always wondered about the Other factions, and she thought that was only from a strict educational view, Her Sister always knew she'd better suit Erudite, but once she hit 15, the Year before her Aptitude test and the Choosing Ceremony- Jean Realized that she honestly couldn't figure out which Faction she was supposed to belong in or which one she'd rather belong to. Due to the fact that she strongly desired to be each of the Factions, she clung to the Idea of being Brave, Smart, Kind, Selfless AND Honest, nd Leaving out all of the Factions collective Negativities... She Overcame the Serum with Sheer willpower, telling herself to do what each of the Factions would do, instead of reacting by instinct. Resulting in a Divergent test Result.
In the end, Come Choosing Day, she realized that she'd have to leave home. Candor was no place for a Divergent. She'd have to adopt a secretive and stealthy Lifestyle. The Best place to find out who and what she really was, would be to Make a home for herself in Erudite. The Closer she was to Divergent Hunters, the more she acted like them, the farther she would be from being Found.

Name:
Ferngully Sungrove
Age:
20
Gender:
Male
Home Faction:
Amity
Other Family:
none
Aptitude Results:
Divergent (Erudite, Abnegation, Dauntless), entered into the computer as Erudite.
Chosen Faction:
Dauntless, but got cut near the end of initiation. Is now factionless.
Fears:
Erudite
Corrupted government/society
Loss of freedom
Loss of self identity
Virtues:
Quickwitted
Kind
Resourceful
Bold
Creative
Skills:
Herbal knowledge (mainly medicinal)
Staff and long weapon fighting
Bow and arrows
Physical Description:
Black hair, which had been dyed lime green during his time in Dauntless, so now last six inches or so are a faded green-blonde. He's very slender and wiry, which is very deceptive to his actually strength and speed. Given how many of the factionless rely on him as much as they rely on the Abnegation, he has relatively more possessions and is relatively better dressed and groomed than the average factionless individual.
Personality:
Fern is quirky, and strange, and oddly high-spirited. He stays away from contact with any faction members, even the Abnegation, to avoid any sort of suspicions. In truth, Fern is very well known among the slums, and has more or less become a doctor, mid-wife, spiritual leader, and many other things besides. However, he doesn't exactly have friends either. Though everyone knows of him, and most have taken his aide at some point, few actually know anything about him. he lives alone, squirreled away from what little society the factionless life had. Despite his cheery demeanor, he's distant. Despite his will to help, he's sometimes cold. Because of this, though he;s well respected and liked, he's also, somewhat, feared.
