Username: Several7s

Name: Jennifer (Jenny) Lance

Age: 31

Gender: Female

Appearance: She has hazel eyes and blonde hair that's about medium length. She keeps it up in a ponytail most of the time, but every so often she lets it down and it tumbles over her shoulders in waves. She's about five feet tall, but she can make guy who are a foot taller still feel tiny compared to her if she's really trying. She doesn't smile all the time, but when she does, it lights up her whole face and you can tell she's happy. Like most Dauntless, she wears the typical black leather outfits.

Backstory: Jenny was born into Amity with a fighting spirit. Despite the many times she was told that resolving things peacefully was better than picking a fight, she never really believed them. Resolving things peacefully, she found, only worked in select situations. All her life she made trouble for the people of Amity. Not on purpose, mind you, but because she couldn't figure out what was so great about allowing people to mock you or hurt you without fighting back. Everyone was relieved when she chose Dauntless and she fit right in. She passed initiation quite close to the top and after just a few years, was offered the position of instructor. She took it and has been training intiates ever since. She married and had a little boy who is a lot like her, but she is of the opinion that he picks a lot more fights than she ever did.

Personality: She's a fighter. If she's mocked, she won't just take it, she'll fight back. If she's attacked, she'll make her attacker wish s/he hadn't gone near her. She tends to take charge of situations, naturally gravitating toward leadership roles. If she has something to say, she'll say it and she'll make sure she's heard. When she loves, she does so unconditionally. She isn't the type to go half-way with anything and hates leaving things unfinished. She'll take care of the people she's charged with training, but she isn't afriad to punish people when they do wrong.

Magic/Powers: N/A

Weapon of Choice: Throwing knives or guns. She's good with either.

Strengths: Her ability to take charge of difficult situations and operate well under stress have come in handy more than once. She's also good with weapons. She's a good teacher too, although she doesn't really believe that.

Weaknesses: She was never good at hand-to-hand combat. She has trouble taking orders from others, since she's used to being the one who gives the orders. She has a lot of trouble letting go of things that are beyond her control. She'll fixate on something she can't fix and try to fix it anyway.

Captured: She wasn't exactly captured, but her eight year old son was taken. She found a note on his bed, along with a folder and instructions on who to find and mentor. She was left no choice- to save her son, she had to go and help Midnight mentor her team.

Greatest Fear: She fears she isn't fit to be a mother. The idea that she- like her parents- might impress certain characteristics upon her son horrifies her. She tries very hard to avoid forcing Dauntless beliefs on him, while hoping that if he chooses Dauntless when he turns sixteen, it will be because he truly believes he belongs there and not because she made him feel he had to.

Insecurities: Although she doesn't see her parents anymore, she constantly worries that she disappointed them in some way because she left Amity. At the same time, she doesn't feel like she has the right to be insecure about her parents after fifteen years without seeing them.

Loved Ones: Her parents, her husband, and her son.

Realm They're From: Chicago

Fandom: Divergent

Token: Before she left, she grabbed a small, two inch wooden sword figure that her son carved and sanded for her.

Anything Else: If she has taken charge, good luck getting it back. It's usually better to just sit back and watch.
