A deuteragonist is the second-main character of a story, after the protagonist. The deuteragonist is normally the secondary protagonist of the story. The deuteragonists of the 3D Universe have a lot in common. They normally start out not getting along well with the protagonist, for example Sweet who blames Carl for their brother and mother's death. They normally come around though seeing they have really redeemed themselves or that both of them have same goals. The deuteragonist also accompanies the protagonist in the final mission (Ken, Sweet, Salvatore, etc.).

- Deuteragonist. The second guy. No, not the Sidekick, who follows the main character around. Not the Supporting Protagonist, who is the main character yet not the focus of the story. Not the false protagonist either. The second person the show revolves around. An important aspect is that we see quite a bit of the story from this character's point of view, and that they get a good amount of screen time/pages. Dramatica calls this character the Impact Character, while The Hollywood Formula refers to this as the Relationship character. Examples of Deuteragonist include:

| - A deuteragonist is the second-main character of a story, after the protagonist. The deuteragonist is normally the secondary protagonist of the story. The deuteragonists of the 3D Universe have a lot in common. They normally start out not getting along well with the protagonist, for example Sweet who blames Carl for their brother and mother's death. They normally come around though seeing they have really redeemed themselves or that both of them have same goals. The deuteragonist also accompanies the protagonist in the final mission (Ken, Sweet, Salvatore, etc.). The deuteragonists of the HD Universe have known the protagonist for a long time and have worked with them before. They are normally introduced in the beginning as a close friend to the protagonist.
- Deuteragonist. The second guy. No, not the Sidekick, who follows the main character around. Not the Supporting Protagonist, who is the main character yet not the focus of the story. Not the false protagonist either. The second person the show revolves around. The Deuteragonist (from Greek: second actor) is the second important character in the story; the first is, of course, The Protagonist. This person can be either with, or against The Protagonist - thus sometimes pulling double duty as a main Antagonist, though they are rarely the primary antagonist in these scenarios. We can see how their actions drive the plot just as much as those of The Protagonist. If there's another example of this trope in play following the previous one, then that character is the Tritagonist. An important aspect is that we see quite a bit of the story from this character's point of view, and that they get a good amount of screen time/pages. Subtropes include Supporting Leader. The Sidekick or The Lancer can become a Deuteragonist if given enough focus on their own. In a romance story, the Official Couple will usually be the protagonist and deuteragonist. If a character seems like a Deuteragonist but doesn't get as much screentime, they're likely the Hero of Another Story. Compare Two Lines, No Waiting, where the plots don't actually intersect. Dramatica calls this character the Impact Character, while The Hollywood Formula refers to this as the Relationship character. Examples of Deuteragonist include:
