protagonist 

Since there was no absolute definition for this word, I decided to use an actual meaning.

1. The main character in a drama or other literary work.
2. In ancient Greek drama, the first actor to engage in dialogue with the chorus, in later dramas playing the main character and some minor characters as well.
3.
1. A leading or principal figure.
2. The leader of a cause; a champion.

Gee, I dunno... do you really need one?

The main character in a story, usually the good guy.. Like Batman

But the protagonist isn't always the good guy. Sometimes they're the bad guy, like the Joker in his own movie

Protagonist Complex

Believing you and your life are either literally or metaphorically the center of a metaphysical narrative in which you are the protagonist and that your life obstacles or people you disagree with or dislike are forces of evil. Most often seen in people who have consumed large amounts of entertainment such as books, movies, or video games which have a concrete "good or bad" for most of their lives.

"My sister in law keeps referencing Harry Potter online when politics are brought up. I think she may have a protagonist complex."

"Quit being so self righteous. You sound like you have a protagonist complex."
