Story In the future, in modern day Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue. These are: Abnegation, Erudite, Dauntless, Amity, and Candor. 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. On Choosing Day, sixteen year olds have a chance to pick the fraction they were born into and stay with their families, or choose another fraction and leave them and barely see them. Fractions live separately and by their own laws. Lately, the fractions Erudite and Abnegation have been growing angry at each other. Stakes are high, and tension between the two fractions is rising. Erudite has been trying to get Dauntless on their side while Abnegation has been trying to get Candor. Amity chooses no side, for their love for peace and hatred for war. The setting for this roleplay is a few days after Choosing Day and the new initiates are setting in their new homes. They are training to become part of the faction, and can face being factionless if they fail to complete the training. Feuds between Abnegation and Erudite are rising, and tension is higher than it has ever been. You will learn more about the factions below. Message me if you have any questions. | |

Factions Info Abnegation (The Selfless) I choose to turn away from my reflection, to rely not on myself but on my brothers and sisters, to project always outward until I disappear. - Abnegation Manifesto
Erudite (The Intelligent)
Dauntless (The Brave) We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another... We believe in shouting for those who can only whisper, in defending those who cannot defend themselves. - Dauntless Manifesto
Amity (The Peaceful) Give freely, trusting that you will be given what you need... Do not be angry. The opinions of others cannot damage you... The wrong is past. You must let it rest where it lies... You must no longer think cruel thoughts. Cruel thoughts lead to cruel words, and hurt you as much as they hurt their target. - Amity Manifesto
Candor (The Honest) Truth makes us transparent. Truth makes us strong. Truth makes us inextricable. - Candor Manifesto
Factionless

Juniper hung out with a group of Amity. She wore a yellow sundress and laughed with them. She looked at the initates who were walking by, getting a better tour of the place. She smiled and waved at them. She went back to talking to the other Amity. Viera wore a gray long sleeve dress, going down to her ankles. She had her hair up in a bun and no makeup on, like all Abnegation girls. She sat outside of her house, watching people pass by. Thalia wore a cotton blue long sleeve shirt and black jeans. She had on thick reading glasses while she hung out at the library, studying for the big test at the end of initation. She hummed softly. Four hung out in the Pit, drinking with a couple of friends since the drinking age was 16 here and he was 18. He watched people walk by, and looked at the new Initates, going to training. He scoffed and mumbled a good luck to them. He wore a black, tight t-shirt and jeans. Sebastion wore a black and white suit. He was talking with the other initates excitedly. Ash hung out alone in the factionless sector. He smoke a cigeratte and climbed into an old building.

Hey why dont there be like a secret club. Like a place where all the factions, can go. The higher ups dont know about it. Its a factionless club where the initates or factions can just be themselves. It'll allow everyone to meet. Charlie Walked with the other initates. She was happy to get away from all the fighting and finally she could be at a place, where she could express her art. She wished Toby wouldve came with her. (That was her nick name for him) She began to have flash backs, but quickly chided herself Stop! Don't think about him, he made his choice. He chose to leave you, when your dad, started to have a drinking problem and beat you. He promised to protect me and take care of . . me. He lied, its what all boys do, they have no morals. They dont care. She sighed and brushed away a tear, at the mental argument with herself. It was time for a new Charlie. She veered over to a group of Amitians. She smiled at the girl who waved earlier. Hi, I'm Charlie and new here she smiled. Roy- Strode into the library. He was hanging out with his friends and was gonna play tricks on some of the initates. He saw Thailia and stopped. Shes gorgeous he thought. | |

Member Posts: 1783 | Juniper smiled widely. "Hello. I'm Juniper. It's nice to meet you." She said, hugging her as the sign of greeting for the Amity. Just like the Dauntless shook hands and the Abnegation bowed heads. It was normal to the Amity to hug. // Thalia squinted at the computer screen and felt eyes watching her. She looked at Roy and blood rushed to her cheeks, her shy, prudish Abnegation personality showing. An Erudite born initiate walked over to her and fake tripped, spilling his coffee on her lap. It wasn't to hot, but she jumped in surprise. The Erudite boy laughed and walked away, calling back. "Sorry, Stiff." He said, using the insult other factions used towards the Abnegation. | |

Member Posts: 1783 | Okay)) Four left the Pit along with a couple other people. They went to the All Factions Club. A girl that walked with Four and the other group of people flirted with Tobias as they walked into the club. | |

Roy- Captivated by her eyes. He walked over, but paused when some guy spilled coffe on her. He glared at him. He walked over to her, Need some help? he grabbed paper towels and helped her clean up. I'm Roy. Charlie Smiled and hugged back Nice to meet you. Hey, I was just going over to the new factions club, wana join me? | |

Member Posts: 1783 | Thalia shook her head. "No, I'm fine." She said quickly, taking the paper towels away and doing it herself for two reasons. One, she didn't want a boy so close to her and two, it was in her Abnegation nature to do things herself so others didn't have to. "I'm Thalia." // Juniper made a face. "Factions Club? Sure." | |

She turned her smile back on quick Heres my adress meet me she wrote her adress on her hand. I need to check on some things at my house before we leave, see you then. She ran off towards her house. | |

Member Posts: 1783 | Juniper cleaned off the most she could. She debated on letting him leave or not, but she guessed she ought to thank him. "Thank you for trying to help." She said, getting up and walking after him. // Juniper laughed and went to her house. She put on a red dress and curled her hair. She skipped out of her room and went outside. | |

Roy- Smiled and turned around No problem, anythign for a pretty girl. Hey, I was wondering, see me and my band are playing at the new factions club, would you like to come and see me? Charlie She smiled and ran upstairs curling her hair and letting it fall down to her mid back in waves. She put on this http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tiered-skirt-outfit.png When she was satisfied and smelled like berries and her hair and glitter were done. She smiled and walked outside, putting on, her jean jacket. Her purple glitter eye liner, enhanced her blue eyes. | |

Thalia blushed majorly when he called her a pretty girl. She nodded. Yeah. Sure. I mean . . . I might have to study, but I'll probably be able to come. Juniper walked to Charlie's house with a skip in her step. | |
