Choosing Ceremony Substance
Their choosing substances are burning coals.
Serum
The Dauntless serum is the simulation serum. It is used in the initiation process.
Initiation Process
The initiation process consists of three stages.
1. Physical: initiates have to fight each other and learn to use guns and knives with accuracy. 4 members are eliminated after this round.
2. Emotional: The remaining initiates need to face their fears in a simulation using the Dauntless serum. Initiates try to get the fastest time possible. No one is eliminated after this round, but the times are considered in the final rankings.
3. Mental: The remaining initiates are put into their fear landscapes. They need to calm themselves down as quickly as possible.
Only the top ten initiates are eligible to join Dauntless. Everyone else becomes factionless. Also, Dauntless has the toughest initiation process. Final rankings are used to determine jobs. Anyone not in the top five is likely to get a job guarding the fence.

Dauntless Manifesto
We believe that cowardice is to blame for the world’s injustices. We believe that peace is hard-won, that sometimes it is necessary to fight for peace.
About
But more than that:
- We believe that justice is more important than peace.
- We believe in freedom from fear, in denying fear the power to influence our decisions.
- We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.
- We believe in acknowledging fear and the extent to which it rules us.
- We believe in facing that fear no matter what the cost to our comfort, our happiness, or even our sanity.
- We believe in shouting for those who can only whisper, in defending those who cannot defend themselves.
- We believe, not just in bold words but in bold deeds to match them.
- We believe that pain and death are better than cowardice and inaction because we believe in action.
- We do not believe in living comfortable lives.
- We do not believe that silence is useful.
- We do not believe in good manners.
- We do not believe in empty heads, empty mouths, or empty hands.
- We do not believe that learning to master violence encourages unnecessary violence.
- We do not believe that we should be allowed to stand idly by.
- We do not believe that any other virtue is more important than bravery.
