    A character's fate

    Im trying to decide who would be a good character to describe they tried to break from normality, in this case be different than everyone else, and as a result was punished because of it.
    I considered using John, but he didnt fit due tot he fact that he is a savage and wasnt born of the New World.

    Then in contrast, a character who accept their fate and conformed to society

    I think you've missed the obvious one: Bernard. Fits the description perfectly in failing to be orthodox.

    Pretty much any of the other sub-main characters fit for the alternative, although the most stereotypical is probably Henry Foster.
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."
