Beatrice Prior
So.. I kind of didn't read anything from the last time I blogged. That's why I'm going to do a post about the character in my book, Beatrice, or Tris Prior. Yay! Tris grew up in her faction learning that you as yourself should not be your first priority, or selflessness. She wasn't allowed to look in the mirror or have any sort of fun, because the people in her faction believed that those things benefitted yourself. So when Tris was put into this new faction, she wasn't used to any of that. She was super awkward and didn't really know how to make friends. Gradually through the book Divergent she starts to think more about herself and puts herself out there. Tris was definitely a dynamic character. Not only did her attitude change, but her thoughts and image as well. She forgets the rules of her faction. For example, she gets a tattoo, which would have been considered bad in her previous faction because you are doing it for yourself. She also falls in love, which isn't something everyone would have accepted in Abnegation. It's kind of hard to talk about the changes she goes through without giving away too much information about the book but... Yup.
