Tris is a very well rounded character. At this scene, Tris belongs in the Dauntless faction. She seems to have no fear by the way she speaks, acts, and looks. As you can see it the video, Tris has a tattoo which explains that she is very brave and is ready to do anything. There is also one type of conflict that is present within this scene. This type of conflict is characterized as a relationship conflict. Tris does not really think that Four would really behave the way he did in this scene. Tris thought that Four would always look out for her but instead, he started throwing knives at her to test her bravery.

Creative Writing: Blog #3 (Character)
I feel like a great movie that represents excellent character is Divergent. I really don't want to give away too much about the movie but let me just give you a little bit of background. In the movie, every person must pick a faction in order to serve their community as a whole. Divergents are the people who don't fit into any faction. The government tries to eliminate all of the Divergents because they think that the Divergents are very dangerous to the community. If you really want to know, I suggest for you to read the Divergent series and watch the movie. The scene below represents several characters. The character I am going to focus on this blog is Tris.

Yes! When I first watched this scene/read this scene, it initially appears like a fear conflict, which is very much is, but the most important conflict in the scene is definitely the relationship conflict Tris experiences with Four. At this point in the story, she is still trying to figure everything out with Four, and in this scene, you can tell that she is very much still in conflict as to what the relationship between she and Four is. You can almost see the questions flash in her eyes, such as: Would he truly hurt her? Would he really hit her to make a point? Why would he stoop so low? Does she really not understand him at all? Nice characterization scene that effectively shows who Tris is, and most importantly, shows where her conflicts lie.
