__________________________________________________________________
Anywho, this RP is based on the 'Divergent Trilogy'. I own nothing but pure fandom over Theo James. (who's playing Four/Tobias Eaton in the 2014 Divergent movie)
__________________________________________________________________

In a dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions each, dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives.


(quote from the book-)
"Our dependents are now sixteen. They stand on the precipice of adulthood, and it is now up to them to decide what kind of people they will be. Decades ago our ancestors realized that it is not political ideology, religious belief, race, or nationalism that is to blame for a warring world. Rather, they determined that it was the fault of human personality- of humankind's inclination toward evil, in whatever form that is. They divided into factions that sought to eradicate those qualities they believed responsible for the world's disarray."

"Those who blamed aggression formed Amity."
"Those who blamed ignorance became the Erudite."
"Those who blamed duplicity created Candor."
"Those who blamed selfishness made Abnegation."
"And those who blamed cowardice were the Dauntless."

"Working together, these five factions have lived in peace for many years, each contributing to a different sector of society. Abnegation has fulfilled our need for selfless leaders in government; Candor has provided us trustworthy and sound leaders in law; Erudite has supplied us with intelligent teachers and researchers; Amity has given us understanding counselor and caretakers; and Dauntless provides us with protection from threats both within and without. But the reach of each faction is not limited to these areas. We give one another far more than can be adequately summarized. In our factions, we find meaning, we find purpose, we find life."


Chose one faction.

Dauntless:
Appearance: Tattoos, piercings, black-clothed
Demeanor: Bold, daring, intense
Values: Courage, Bravery
Beliefs: Prove your bravery, protect, guard the fence that surrounds the city (from what we do not know), face your fears and push them away
You are a soldier, protecting the city, protecting yourself.

Abnegation:
Appearance: Gray robes, gray shirts, gray slacks, plain hairstyle, only adornment allowed is a watch
Demeanor: Reserved/unassuming, not drawing too much attention, lack of vanity, never self indulgent.
Values: Selflessness, protecting yourselves from vanity, greed, and envy, If you have little, and want for little, then you are all equal and envy no one.
Beliefs: Be selfless in every way.
(Some people might take "selfless" the wrong way. Basically this faction think of you, yourself and not themselves, being selfless for YOU.)

Candor:
Appearance: Black suit with white tie is the standard uniform.
Demeanor: Honest, candid
Values: Honesty and sees the truth as black and white.
Beliefs: Tell the truth in every situation.
If you are Candor-born, you have been raised to tell the truth and only the truth. Truth is what makes us inextricable.

Amity:
Appearance: Dressed in yellow and red.
Demeanor: Peaceful, playful, kind
Values: Peacefulness, Kindness
Beliefs: Living in peace with one another, against aggression, kind, loving and free
(No offense, but you're basically a hippy. Also, when you are aggressive and say, throw a punch at someone, you are taken into a room, and they give you a serum, which makes you "high" or bubbly inside. Most of this faction believes in 'God'. Not everyone, but most of your Amity does. They believe in 'God' himself, nothing of Catholicism.)

Erudite:
Appearance: Must wear at least one blue article of clothing
Demeanor: Serious, focused
Values: Intelligence
Beliefs: “A calm mind is a clear mind.”, constantly pursuing knowledge, keep careful records. Knowledge is power.
(Ouch. The coldest of all of the factions, knowledge is what keeps you going. You aren't the "meanest", Dauntless is.)

Factionless:
Failure to complete initiation into whatever faction you choose, living in poverty, doing the work no one else wants to do (janitors, construction works, garbage collectors, make fabric, operate trains, drive buses). For their work, they get food and clothing, but not enough of either.
One living in poverty and discomfort. Divorced from society and separated from community with no purpose or reason to live.

Sliv: Life without Life----

Sliv sits on a bench, right outside the train depot. He waits for his shift, as his train, Number 22, hasn't arrived yet. A few other train workers pass him, and quickly rush away from the madman they see. Sliv simply stands up, and begins pacing." The lazy are all doomed to nothing..." He mutters.

(Ok thank you. Then you should probably add age as a catagory for your character creation then :)
Soren walks idily around the pit, with nothing to do. She walks walks about halfway up the steps and sat down. Looking down on the pit below, abuzz with the dauntless, she thought 'I made a good choise', thinking about her choosing ceramony. She didnt stay watching long because it was nearly lunch and she didnt want to be late. Descending the stairs, she made her way to the mess hall.
(Anyone want to be Soren's allready friend in the rp?)

Marianne

I looked at my plate. Ceasar salad with chicken and carrots, some pasta, a piece warm sourdough bread with butter melted on it.
I walked toward my usual table, in the back corner near the exit stair-case. I ate the sourdough with a hungry feeling, then eating the salad, and eating the semi-warm pasta. My stomach told me it saved a spot for desert. Dauntless chocolate cake was the best out of the all the faction's "cool" things. Besides fizzy soda, I guess.
I ate my cake slowly, savoring the taste, walking back to drop my plate off. As I walked toward the exit, someone exchanged their foot out as to trip me. I felt a laugh being sustained in my throat, as I "accidentally" kick it directly at the ankle bone. I heard someone scream, a guy's voice, in pain and agony. I fell, to make it look like a real accident, clutching my knee.

Later that night after having to hold ice to my knee, making it a real accident in front of the Dauntless leaders, but providing icy stares at those who were sitting at that same table. I was reaching higher in the rankings, silently, to the top. But words had remained in my mind, "You are never allowed to share with anyone that you are Divergent, as it can and will kill you."

I dumped the ice in the trash, falling into bed, my dreams consuming me of the family I once had.

RP Sheet:

Name: Alphonsine "Ally" Rivers
Gender: Female
Faction: Amity
(If Dauntless, Factionless) Weapon: I am not in Dauntless, I am not Factionless

Clothing Appearance: Ally has large, thick-rimmed glasses with black frames and very polished, clean lenses. She wears a pair of denim shorts reaching midway down her thighs, with a pale yellow, sleeveless blouse with a row of five large button and a prominent folding collar. She also wears a somewhat long, bright red coat with two deep, squarish pockets, double breasted rows of buttons. Finally, Ally wears a pair of long white socks reaching her knees and pale brown, slip on shoes.
Physical Appearance: Alphonsine is only five and a half feet high with a slender build and twigish limbs. She has a light streak of freckles along the ridge of her nose and cheeks, and fairly pale skin, with green-hazel eyes and not-so-prominent lips. Her hair is somewhat wavy and dark bown, reaching the midway section on her back and kept in a high ponytail.

Personality: Ally is, for the most part, fairly good natured and well meaning. She can be very shy and awkward around people at first. She can get nervous and jumpy, and is more of a "fence-sitter" in debates, but leans towards more peaceful options. However, she can be calm and won't start fights over her beliefs (not to say she won't defend them). While she has trouble talking to people, she can be cheery and helpful. Ally is quick and thin, but physically weaker than most of her peers. She tries to make up for it with technique, but gets very upset about this. She can be snappy and groggy when she's tired, so she tends to avoid people when she wakes up for amity. This can be mis interpreted. Ally tends to have made self confidence that really hinders her. While not necessarily religious, Ally does believe in karma and spirits.
Bio (optional Ally was born into the Faction of Amity with a twin brother, Abel. They were both more...physically weak in comparison to the children around them. As a result, they stayed indoors most the time, doodling and reading. Ally and Abel grew to be more voracious readers, and had a somewhat higher level of comprehension that evened out overtime, but not too much so. Ally loved to sketch, and began drawing seriously when she was eleven. Luckily, she was a natural and drew in a rough, sketchy style, going over in water colors. Abel however, delved into literature and wrote stories centered around Ally's artwork. Throughout school, they weren't exactly noticed, until around 5th grade. Ally preferred her small group of friendsile and had acquaintances, but Abel was more outgoing and had a large group of friends that occasionally interacted with Ally's. While Ally was happy about it, she developed the slightest jealousy, which, overtime deformed into barely controllable envy, and sometimes even loathing. This was around thirteen or fourteen. While Abel had more friends and was constantly away, Ally got used to spending time alone drawing. Occasionally, she would get with her friends and had them over, but not like Abel. The two stopped talking, really. Even though they hadn't fought, they were clearly distancing. By fifteen, they no longer seemed to acknowledge each other as siblings, but peers and occasionally mild acquaintances. Other than Ally's artistic (and a developing writing) career, her life couldn't really be deemed eventful.
