I'd prefer viewpoint character / protagonist or main character / and hero.
I guess it's how you define main character, and if you allow more than one. I would say that Watson is arguably a main character like Holmes, but he isn't the protagonist.

I consider hero as a character archetype, something else entirely, but that's just me.
