Jain believes completely in the doctrine and dogma of the Children of the Cathedral. She is devout, pompous, and fanatical, and can be quite stubborn. She refers to the Master as "the Holy Flame," and genuinely believes that what she and the Children are doing is right. She will try to persuade the player to join the Children, but she has no patience for people distracting her from her work.
Hints
Be warned! If Jain summons a "counselor" to prepare you for your transition, that counselor will be a super-mutant who will take you to the vats. You must attempt to kill the mutant to escape if that happens, or kill Jain herself."
