Jeanine was born into Erudite, and from a young age it was clear that she was exceptionally gifted. She could speak clearly by the time she was 11 months old, and read by the time she was 2. She excelled in school and scored highest in her class on her Erudite required IQ tests in 3rd and 8th grade. It was obvious she would remain in Erudite and prosper there.
But things changed on the day of her aptitude test. She found out something that, despite her intelligence, she did not know the danger of. She was Divergent. Her strongest aptitude was for Erudite, of course, but she also had an aptitude for Candor. For the first time in her life, she was confused, and she brought it up to her parents. That was a huge mistake. Her parents tried to turn her over to Erudite authorities, to have her killed, but she twisted around the story to make them seem like the dangerous ones, and they were kicked out of Erudite.
Jeanine chose to stay, and upon her final IQ test in Erudite initiation, she received the highest score ever recorded for an initiate and was quickly trained to become Erudite’s leader. She grew to understand why the Divergent were dangerous, and tried to wash her own Divergence out. She learned to manipulate facts to get the results she wanted. She stopped being so honest with the people around her and instead became cruel. She grew to hate the Divergent, and used her power to plot to take them out.
And now she just may have what she needs to do it. She is putting the pieces together to take down the Abnegation government and hunt down the Divergent. Soon, she will have the whole city under her thumb.
