Howard Roark, protagonist and undeniably hero of AynRand's novel Fountainhead, is a tall, thin man with red hair and gray eyes. Roark is an individualist and an astonishing architect whose modern designs are misunderstood due to his refusal to conform to society. Roark never understands because he does not deviate from his own beliefs and principles. Roark is the only character who does not change throughout the novel as he is Rand's version of an ideal man. Rand's version of an ideal man is a pure individualist who lives according to what he thinks is right and does not conform to the societal "norm." Throughout the novel, Roark shows how strong his beliefs are by refusing jobs he needs because clients want him to produce work that deviates from his style of architecture. An example of the strength of his beliefs is when Wynand tells Roark that he will only be able to build the houses for him in the future if Waynard chooses the design and if Roark refuses, Wynand will destroy him and his career. Roark draws a traditional house and asks Wynand if it is acceptable. Wynand is surprised by the drawing, and Roark tells him not to bother... middle of paper...... be sure to call me. I want your naked body, your skin, your mouth, your hands... I want you like an animal, or a cat on a fence, or a whore... I hate you, Roark. I hate you for who you are, for wanting you, for having to want you. I will fight you – and I will destroy you… I will hurt you with the only thing that can hurt you – with your work. I will fight to starve you… I did it today – and that’s why I will sleep with you tonight. » Dominique tries to destroy Roark in several ways.
