Antagonist, in literature, the principal opponent or foil of the main character, who is referred to as the protagonist, in a drama or narrative. The word is from the Greek antagonists, “opponent or rival.”

The antagonist is the primary opponent of the protagonist, and the biggest obstacle standing between the main character and their goal. This term also derives from Greek: anti, meaning “against,” and agonist, meaning actor.

Like the protagonist, the antagonist can take many different forms. From the traditional villain working alone, to a group of people, a force of nature, or even an intrinsic conflict, the one uniting factor of all antagonists is that they challenge the protagonist in some way.

simple, would be the correct answer  

(context) plain means ordinary, primary means first and essential means is always needed.

(more context) even though you should do spell check it shouldn't be first and isn't always needed and part of spell check is to make it so it's not plain
