Tris is a brave and selfish character who wants to escape a place where she feels she never belonged in and start a new life there. In the beginning of the book she is making the decision to either stay with her family in Abnegation or go to Dauntless during which she says ¨ I am brave, I am selfish,¨ (Ruth 47) she then decides to go into Dauntless abandoning her family which is considered selfish and Dauntless is for the brave which is where she chose to go. She then is the first person to jumps down to the Dauntless base where they say¨Wow I can not believe it, a Stiff the first to jump, unheard of¨(Ruth 60) which is them telling them how she is braver than most people who come from Abnegation because she jumped first.

Tris is a confused girl who is trying to fit into the society that she does not totally fit into. She spends the book trying to get into Dauntless but throughout the book shows that she is smart like Erudites and Selfless like Abnegation as shown in this quote ¨Sorry I sound like an Erudite just a habit I shrug its interesting.¨(Roth 247) Another example is when she says¨Al seem happy but there is something heavy about even his smiles, I am worried about him.¨ (Roth 247)This shows how she still likes to learn about things and feels compassion towards people which is not a Dauntless trait.

The answer to the question, what risks do mavericks take is is that people can be afraid of you and it can cause friction and bad feelings between people. In the book Tris is told she is divergent and she is told not to tell anyone about it. During the book she is told by people how people have died because it was found out they were divergent. To be divergent is to be different and can put you in danger because non divergent people are afraid of divergent people and it causes tension between them and leaders of the different sectors are afraid of them.
