	A '''protagonist''' is the main figure of a piece of literature or drama and has the main part or role. Alternatively, the phrase denotes a primary advocate of or proponent for a cause or movement. The main character can be a hero or a villain in a story - it is just the character with the lead role. In literature, the protagonist (Classical Greek πρωταγωνιστὴς "protagonistes") is characterized by his/her ability to change or evolve.
