It is a critical role that Hades plays in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Hades is the God of the Underworld of the afterlife. He influences Theban Princess Antigone's decision to respect the divine will over a royal edict. Antigone explains that she will spend far less time in Thebes than in the Underworld. She decides that she therefore must act during life in a way that guarantees her Hades' welcome and a happy reunion with her family in death.

Respect for Polyneices as dead, a monarch and her sibling, for Hades and for proper funerary procedures describes why Antigone buries her brother in the namesake play by Sophocles (496 B.C.-406 B.C.). Antigone interprets Polyneices as a human-being deserving protection from desecration by the birds, dogs and elements through the perceived god-given procedures for and traditions of funerary rites and rituals. She opts for respecting Hades, the place to which all human beings, including herself go, for eternity.
The antagonist is the opponent. In the play 'Antigone', that role is filled by Theban King Creon. He indeed is the opponent to the will of the gods; the well-being of his people; the safe passage of the dead into the realms of the underworld god; the love of the betrothed first cousins, Haemon and Antigone; and the continuity of his family.
Strong in terms of Antigone is a way of describing the role of family ties in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone honors her gods, loves her family and respects her city's traditions. She is the strongest expression of the importance of family in the play. She risks her life to give her disgraced brother Polyneices the burial that he is guaranteed as a Theban but that he illegally is denied by his uncle, King Creon.
