Learn How to Act Like Tris from Divergent

   
1 For clothing- dress bold. Tris describes herself as not particularly beautiful, but she stands out, during her transformation as a Dauntless initiate.
       
She wears dark clothing. She wears short, black, sometimes clingy clothing and black boots or shoes. These are the things typical Dauntless members wear, so pick out lots of dark clothing, such as black tank tops and jeggings.
       
Don't go overboard though, and don't pick out clothes that are too clingy. Never wear black leggings without a long top to cover the butt!
   
2 For makeup- bold again. Tris wants to make herself stand out.
       
Wear black eyeliner or mascara, light grey eyeshadow and a darkish coloured lipstick. DON'T go overboard though- don't pile tonnes of makeup on yourself. This will just make the look overstated and unnatural.
   
3 Be brave. This is the most obvious trait of Tris', as of course she joins Dauntless instead of Abnigation, and of course is the first jumper.
   
4 Stick up for others and don't let others put you down. Don't be nasty- this isn't brave, this is being bullying. Tris isn't a bully, she just stands up for what is right by being firm. Be assertive and learn how to say no.
   
5 Be in good shape physically. This isn't the most important trait of Tris', but if possible you should be like her by keeping yourself in good shape.
       
Tris has to do a lot of work being a Dauntless initiate, but you can find better ways of keeping in good shape than punching others (!) Why not go for a run whenever you can, push yourself- this will build up stamina.
   
6 Be strong willed. Tris is not afraid to stand up for others and what is right, even putting herself in danger to prove a point. Don't put yourself in danger- no offence to Tris, but it's not the best way to prove a point- but stand up for yourself, don't go quiet and be a mouse.
   
7 Be fiercely loyal. A Dauntless, and Tris, is typically loyal to her faction and her friends. Don't double-cross your friends and family or shy away when they're in trouble.
        Do whatever you can to protect your friends and family and don't let your friends be bullied or left out.
   
8 Remember, have common sense. Tris may be a Dauntless, but unlike some of them, she doesn't throw herself into danger whenever she sees it.
       
She's clever and uses her brain first, like in the Dauntless version of 'capture the flag'. Use your common sense to work out problems and don't be a fool.
   
9 Follow your gut instinct. Although Tris has a brain, she more often follows her instincts to solve problems. Unless your gut instinct involves putting yourself in danger, follow your instincts.
   
10 Try to conquer your fears. Tris is a Divergent and brave and therefore finds it slightly easier to conquer her fears.
       
Think about how she does it. Obviously, you can't take a simulation shot, but try to close your eyes and imagaine yourself conquering your fears.
       
If you're afraid of the dark, try to stand in the dark until you can't stand it any longer. Do this every night until you find it easier. If you're afraid of snakes, obviously this will be slightly harder, but try to imagine yourself with a snake, and think how harmless snakes are.
        After a while, you will feel just like you're a Dauntless initiate, with your fear-conquering.
   
11 Lastly, have confindence in yourself. Tris learns to find herself during her time in Dauntless and she learns bravery and self-esteem. This will help you with every step on this page- the confidence will show in your face and posture too, if you hold your head up high. Just don't be over-confident- this is arrogence.
