Share What Was Eric Before Dauntless?

Before joining Dauntless, Eric was born and raised in Erudite. He was a bright and ambitious young man who excelled in academics. However, he felt a disconnect from the intellectual world of Erudite. He yearned for something more, something that would challenge him physically and mentally.

This yearning led him to choose Dauntless, a faction known for its courage and physical prowess. Eric’s decision to transfer to Dauntless was a bold one. He left behind the familiar comforts of his Erudite upbringing to embrace a new and exciting path.

In Dauntless, Eric thrived. He quickly became a leader, demonstrating his strength, determination, and strategic thinking. His rise to leadership was remarkable, especially considering his young age. He was the youngest person ever to hold such a position in Dauntless.

Eric’s journey in Dauntless wasn’t without its challenges. He faced competition from Four, another talented initiate who had also chosen Dauntless. They were rivals during initiation, with Four ranking first and Eric coming in second. This rivalry, however, was not malicious. It fueled their ambition and pushed them to excel.

Despite their competitive spirit, Eric and Four ultimately respected each other. They recognized the strengths in each other and learned from one another. Eric’s time in Erudite had given him a unique perspective, one that allowed him to see the world in a different light. This perspective proved valuable in Dauntless, where he brought a strategic mind to the group’s tactical decisions. His time in Erudite also gave him a strong understanding of the importance of knowledge and intellect, making him a well-rounded leader.
