Divergent Faction Quiz: What it is
This is a fan-made, lore-aware personality quiz that mirrors the series’ core idea. In the books, society is split into five factions, each built around a virtue. Our quiz uses everyday choices and values to estimate which faction fits you best. It does not collect sensitive data. It does not claim official status.
How the quiz works
You will answer 15 short questions. Most prompts reflect the story’s themes: service, honesty, bravery, knowledge, and peace. Your answers are weighted, then compared with faction profiles. Mixed signals may point to a Divergent-style result. That is normal for fans who identify with more than one virtue.
For context, the books describe an Aptitude Test that uses a simulation to suggest a best fit before the Choosing Ceremony. Our quiz uses plain situations instead, so you can respond without spoilers or graphic scenes.
What your result means
Your result is a snapshot of the values you highlighted while answering. It is not a diagnosis. Use it for fun, self-reflection, and fandom talk.
Faction summaries
- Abnegation Values service, humility, and putting others first. Likely signals in answers include volunteering, modest goals, and fair sharing.
- Amity Values kindness, harmony, and keeping the peace. Signals include conflict mediation, community focus, and positive framing.
- Candor Values truth, direct speech, and fairness. Signals include transparent rules, hard honesty, and dislike of gray areas.
- Dauntless Values courage, action, and resolve. Signals include taking the lead, calculated risk, and protecting others.
- Erudite Values knowledge, evidence, and problem-solving. Signals include research habits, curiosity, and love of tools or data.
- Divergent A mixed pattern that spans multiple virtues. Signals include flexible thinking and context-based choices. Treat this as a hybrid profile, not a badge.
How we map answers to factions
Each choice adds small points to one or more factions. Neutral answers add less weight. Extreme answers add more. Your top score is your likely match. Close second scores are shown so you can read both descriptions. If you retake it and pick different values, your result can change. That reflects the story’s theme that people are not one-note.
Who this quiz is for
Fans who enjoy character sorting. Readers who like value-driven worlds. Anyone who wants a simple way to compare personal choices to the series’ virtues.
