Antagonistë

Antagonistë, also known as antagonists, are characters or forces that oppose the protagonist in a story, creating conflict and tension. They can be individuals, groups, or abstract concepts that challenge the protagonist's goals, values, or actions. Antagonists serve several purposes in narrative structure. They provide a source of conflict, driving the plot forward and creating stakes for the protagonist. They also offer opportunities for character development, as the protagonist must adapt and grow in response to the antagonist's challenges. Antagonists can be portrayed as either sympathetic or unsympathetic, depending on the story's themes and the author's intentions. In some cases, antagonists may even become allies to the protagonist, leading to complex character dynamics and resolutions. The role of the antagonist is crucial in shaping the narrative and contributing to the overall impact of the story.
