And here are some things about Tris and Four;) *Taken from Wikipedia* *SPOILER ALERT*
Beatrice "Tris" Prior is the narrator and main character of the series Divergent. She is 16 years old and is the youngest child of Andrew and Natalie Prior. She has an older brother named Caleb Prior. During the aptitude test, she learns that she is Divergent, something that it is extremely dangerous. Later in the book, she learns that Divergent means a class of individuals who are not suited to only one faction, but someone who show traits of several factions. After much struggle, she chooses to be a Dauntless initiate. Tris is very stubborn, and also tough. Tris is described as being very, very short and not beautiful. She has frame-hairstyled blonde hair and blue eyes. She is quite skinny, but becomes muscular during training as a Dauntless initiate.
Tobias/ Four is Tris's instructor and love interest. He is two years older than Tris and originally came from Abnegation. He protects Tris from the others both physically when she is attacked and by keeping their romance private so the other initiates will not think Tris's rank is a result of favoritism. "Four" is a nickname given in his first stage of initiation by his fellow initiation class and instructors when he had only four fears to face. His real name is Tobias. He ran from Abnegation into Dauntless to escape his physically abusive father, Marcus. He also has an antagonistic relationship with Eric, who is corrupting the Dauntless philosophy. In one of the final chapters of the book, Tris learns that Tobias is also Divergent. Tobias, unlike Tris, is quite tall and he has dark short hair and beautiful deep blue eyes.
