For those of you who have not read the book, you can still participate. Here i will explain some of the basics. Feel free to ask questions if you don't quite understand.
You are born into one of the five factions, Dauntless, Amity, abnegation, candor, or Erudite.
Factions: Dauntless: the brave, they wear black and are the cities protectors, they fear almost nothing. Most dangerous faction.
Amity: the peaceful, their main focus is to be isolated from everyone and not get involved with anything that does not effect their faction in hopes to keep peace, their colors are red and yellow.
Abnegation: the selfless, they help others in every way possible, they do the things no one else wants to do, they never focus on themselves only what is best for others, color is gray
Candor: the truthful, they always tell the truth no matter if it will hurt the other persons feelings, they can tell when someone is lying, their colors are white and black
Erudite: the intelligent, they focus on knowledge, and are developing new technologies for the city and other factions, color: blue, have a rivalry with Abnegation. Considered the most stuck up faction.
When you are 16 you must attend the choosing ceremony, you will then be called up one by one and use the knife they hand you to shed your blood on the element of the faction you will be loyal to. You are not permitted to see your family if you are a transfer: Faction before blood.
To be admitted within a faction you must pass the factions initiation, those who do not pass will be faction-less, and live in abandoned buildings or streets with the other many faction-less.
