In case you haven't read Divergent or don't remember, here are the factions and their descriptions:

Abnegation (The Selfless)

" I choose to turn  away from my reflection, to rely not on myself but on my brothers and  sisters, to project always outward until I disappear. "

–Abnegation Manifesto

The faction that values selflessness in the service of others. These are ones who do community service

Erudite (The Intelligent)

"Bookcases line the  walls on either side of me, but they seem to be decorative more than  anything, because computers occupy the tables in the center of the room,  and no one is reading. The Erudites stare at screens with tense eyes,  focused."

According to the  norms of the faction, it is dictated that a faction member must wear at  least one blue article of clothing at a time, because blue causes the  body to release calming chemicals which attest to their saying, a calm  mind is a clear mind. It is also noted that Erudites are big on speeches  and that Eloquence are for them.

Dauntless (The Brave)

" We believe in  ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand  up for another... We believe in shouting for those who can only  whisper, in defending those who cannot defend themselves. "

–Dauntless Manifesto

The faction who  tests their bravery by attempting death defying feats. According to  Tris's father, he called them, "hellions." They are pierced, tattooed,  reckless and black-clothed. Their primary purpose is to guard the fence  that surrounds the city. In the choosing ceremony, it is noted that  Dauntless provides the city with protection from threats both within and  without. Dauntless children are known for their noisy and unruly  behavior. They are seen laughing, shouting and involved in various games  and dares.

Amity (The Peaceful)

" Give freely,  trusting that you will be given what you need... Do not be angry. The  opinions of others cannot damage you... The wrong is past. You must let  it rest where it lies... You must no longer think cruel thoughts. Cruel  thoughts lead to cruel words, and hurt you as much as they hurt their  target. "

–Amity Manifesto

The faction who  values peace above else. The ones who try to make everything peaceful.  Members of the Amity Faction are dressed in red or yellow. Every time  Tris sees them, they look kind, loving and free. Amity children are seen  playing hand slapping games and singing songs. They mostly have a laid  back happy go lucky attitudes and are viewed as artists. Yet despite  that, Amity has given Chicago understanding counselors and caretakers.

Candor (The Honest)

" Truth makes us transparent. Truth makes us strong. Truth makes us inextricable. "

–Candor Manifesto

The faction that  values honesty. The ones who can't even tell one little lie. A member of  the Candor faction can be recognized because of his black suit and  white tie, a Candor standard uniform. They see the truth as black and  white so that is what they wear. Through the years, the Candor Faction  provided the people with trustworthy and sound leaders in law. Candor  children are seen to make wide gestures with their hands and appear to  be arguing. They are very truthful and would even frankly and tactlessly  say what they feel. The candor initiation does not utilize simulation  but utilize lie detectors tests and truth serum. An initiate sits in  front of everyone and are asked a load of really personal questions.
