Tobias “Four” Eaton
Book Series, Fandom: Divergent, Divergent Trilogy
Tobias Eaton, more prominently known as Four because of his four fears, is one of the main characters in Divergent and Insurgent and is the son of Evelyn Johnson-Eaton and Marcus Eaton. Alongside Lauren (instructor of Dauntless-born initiates), he is the instructor of the transfer initiates. He becomes the love interest of Tris Prior later on in the first book of the trilogy. Four’s fears are height, confinement (claustrophobia), killing people, and being beaten by Marcus (his father). – Divergent wikia
Hazael

Hazael is probably the most intuitive and tactful of his three siblings. With his calm manner and easy smile, he wins the trust of people around him easily and is well-liked among his peers. He retains a light-heartedness despite his harsh training as a Misbegotten and is protective of those close to him, especially his half-sibling Liraz. – Daughter of Smoke & Bone wikia

Beatrice “Tris” Prior (2) vs. Zuzana Nováková (63)
Beatrice “Tris” Prior
Book Series, Fandom: Divergent, Divergent Trilogy
Beatrice “Tris” Prior is a strong-willed sixteen-year-old girl who hates showing weakness. Though Tris was born in the faction Abnegation, she eventually transferred to Dauntless and must face the fact that she is Divergent. Since an early age, Tris was shown to have acted with a blend of curiosity and selfishness, traits that obviously does not make sense as an Abnegation. Her Divergence allows her brain to act with traits from three of the five factions, authentically proven through her Aptitude Tests when it showed her being equally apt for Abnegation, Dauntless and Erudite. – Divergent wikia
Zuzana Nováková
Book Series, Fandom: Daughter of Smoke & Bone, Daughter of Smoke & Bone
Once described Zuzana as “a tiny fairy. A rabid one that bites.” Despite her small size, Zuzana is rather violent. However, Zuzana is also a loyal friend, having been the first to remain friends with Karou despite her initially secretive nature.
She is a humorous girl, easily entertaining the chimaera together with her boyfriend Mik, with their antics, and bringing light into Karou’s dark life in Days of Blood & Starlight. – Daughter of Smoke & Bone wikia

Finnick Odair (3) vs. Princess Bitterblue (62)
Finnick Odair
Book Series, Fandom: The Hunger Games, Hunger Games World
Katniss at first views Finnick as extremely flirtatious and using a “seductive purr” when he speaks. When they take refuge in District 13, Katniss begins to understand Finnick’s pain more. His grief over Annie’s torture mirrors hers about Peeta, and she feels bad for him as he grows more and more unstable. Upon seeing his true personality, she notes that he “radiates life” and has “self-effacing humor and an easy going nature.” – THG wikia
Princess Bitterblue
Fandom: Graceling
She is one of the main characters in Graceling, in which Katsa absconds with her across the mountains, trying to stay out of reach of Leck. The book ends with Leck’s death and Bitterblue claiming the throne of Monsea for herself. The events of Bitterblue pick up about eight years later, in Monsea. She has been very sheltered since her parents’ deaths, but is trying to do a good job of ruling the country despite this. – Graceling wikia

Hermione Granger (4) vs. Jeanine Matthews (61)
Hermione Granger
Book Series, Fandom: Harry Potter, Harry Potter Universe
Hermione was noted for being extremely intelligent and hard-working… Unlike most wizards who depended solely on their magical ability, Hermione readily relied on logic. Although this often helped her cleverly deduce information that many others missed… Hermione’s emphasis on logic also made her sceptical about accepting anything without proof, as opposed to Harry who would come to intuitive conclusions. Hermione was not afraid to stand up to her friends when she thought it was in their best interests, or when she felt they were wrong; she risked angering Harry by getting his Firebolt confiscated because she feared it might be jinxed, and argued with both him and Ginny over his use of the Dark Sectumsempra spell. Because of her intelligence and her opinionated nature, Hermione had the reputation for being a bossy know-it-all. However, her sometimes abrasive confidence masked her insecurities and great fear of failure, as personified by her Boggart. She was extremely loyal to her friends, fiercely defending them if they were insulted, and willing to risk her life to help them. Hermione seemed to have a great deal of compassion, evidenced by her somewhat whimsical purchase of Crookshanks simply because “no one wanted him.” – Harry Potter wikia
Jeanine Matthews
Book Series, Fandom: Divergent, Divergent Trilogy
Jeanine Matthews is the Erudite faction representative. She makes many articles based off lies about Abnegation in order to smear bad faith towards the faction. This tactic would lead to people doubting whether Abnegation is actually selfless but rather a faction hoarding greed for themselves. She, along with Eric, began the second war. She created a serum that would allow her to control people into killing off every Abnegation member. Knowing that the serum didn’t work in the Divergent, she creates a second serum; which she uses it on Four, leaving him in a simulized state. She was motivated to do this because she knew the truth about the factions and did not want to go back to the rest of the world, but rather stay in the factions with Erudite in control so that they would never leave the factions. – Divergent wikia
