they are called antagonist and the good people are called protagonist!!!
A good guy is a protagonist, a bad guy is an antagonist .
The Good Guy is the protagonist The Bad Guy is the Antagonist
The protagonist in a story is merely the character who sets in motion the story line, be it "good "or "bad". An example would be a story about Charles Manson. He would be the protagonist even though he is bad. The cops would be the antagonist in that scenario.
the good guy in a story
I feel that it is good to be anyone in the story as long as you have strong lines that are important. This is coming from both sides of the question; good and bad!
its like the bad guy in the story. the protagonist is the good guy
Woody
it depends which way you look at it. He is the "bad" guy to the opposing side, but from the audience, he is probably the good guy. long story short: he's the good guy!
Who's Tom? I am madly in love a guy called Tom! He is definitely a Good Guy!

It is often referred to as an "antihero," a central character who lacks traditional heroic qualities but is the protagonist nonetheless. Antiheroes can be morally ambiguous or flawed yet still drive the story.
