Dauntless Clothing: Dauntless always dress in black. The women wear skin-tight pants, tights, tight dresses, and black boots and shoes. The men wear black pants and form-fitting shirts. Dauntless like to tattoo and pierce their bodies. Girls might wear dark eyeliner and makeup.
Initiation: They take the initiation process very seriously.There are three stages to Dauntless initiation,the physical, the emotional, and the mental. The Dauntless born initiates and the transfers are scored separately for the first stage, which is physical combat. In the physical stage, initiates learn how to fight and are pitted against each other to prove what they have learned. They are scored based on their victories and losses.In the emotional stage, initiates are put into a simulation where they face their fears, oblivious to the fact that it is a simple simulation, and have to calm themselves to get out. In the final stage, the mental, initiates are put into their fear landscapes, which reaches for every fear within the person subjected to it and creates a simulation in which they must face each one. This time, they are aware that it is not real. The initiates all sleep in the same room (boys and girls). The Dauntless provide the transfers with some basic black clothing at the beginning of initiation. Those not in the top five of each initiation class typically end up as guards. It is tradition for initiates to divide into two teams and play capture the flag at the Navy Pier during initiation. Advice for initiates on Visiting Day: “If your families happen to visit you, try not to seem too attached. We take the phrase ‘faction before blood’ very seriously here." Initiation Day is chaos. People are everywhere and many of them are drunk.
