Key character in a work of fiction (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

protagonist

(Other definitions for protagonist that I've seen before include "Lead character" , "Key character in a novel" , "Chief character in a story" , "Leading character in a play, novel, etc" , "champion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
