Answer:

Protagonist is someone who is a heroic person who does good deeds in the story, or someone who has superpowers who is different from everyone

Antagonist is someone who is the obstacle for the protagonist and is the key for character development.

Whether you're a protagonist or antagonist varies on which perspective it is told

Protagonists and antagonists are both essential characters in a story, but they propel the plot in different and usually opposite ways: The protagonist works toward the central story goals, while the antagonist works against the goals.
