  1. Howard Roark
  2. Peter Keating
  3. Dominique Francon
  4. Henry Cameron

Howard Roak is the protagonist. He is an architect with amazingly individual style and love for his work. His architecture and stubborn passion greatly conflict with (the majority of) society's opinions.

Peter Keating is Roark's peer and competitor (,also and architect). He puts a lot of thought into what others think of him and doing whatever it takes to climb (and cheat) his way to the "top". He lacks actual talent of building and designing, but instead uses his people-pleasing skills and trickery to succeed.

Dominique Francon is the daughter of the renowned architect, (also Peter Keating's employer/partner,) Guy Francon. Her beliefs foil her father's entirely, and for this Guy Francon almost hates her. She is seen as a strange, misunderstood and beautiful woman. Her beliefs are most similar to Roark's, and she falls in love with him, but attempts to destroy him before he is destroyed by the greater evils of society.

Henry Cameron is Roark's mentor, and somewhat of his character parallel as well. He is also very passionate about his work, despite it being rejected by the masses. He was once a successful and respected architect, but has since been knocked down by society and is now an old man who stays stubborn about sticking to building only what he considers beautiful.
