It depends on where you are getting your lore from. If you are going by the original games, despite Pyron being the final boss, Dimitri is primary antagonist of the story, as many of the character story arcs revolve around him...with Morrigan being his primary adversary. This changed in Night Warriors (DarkStalker 2) where story wise, the focus shifted over to Darkstalker hunter Donovan (and his companion Anita) and Hsien Ko in their quest to destroy the monsters. Pyron was still the final boss for some reason, but again, like in the previous game, Donovan's path crossed through Dimitri as did many others. Vampire Savior pushed Dimitri out of of the limelight as it brought about Jedah...who served as the game's primary big bad and main antagonist, but even then, many of the character arcs crossed paths with Dimitri.

The Japanese anime mini-series had a strong focus on Donovan's (who was the primary protagonist) quest to destroy Dimitri and the other Darkstalkers.

As far as the most popular characters of the series pop culture, it has long been Felicia and Morrigan by far, mostly because of the fan service. But if I had to make a line of Darkstalkers figures, I would have started with Dimitri as well. Without him...many of the character story arcs simply don't exist.

With Morrigan and Dimitri being officially announced...I'm dying to see what kind of ingenuity Storm could bring by putting out an Anakaris and Jedah figure. Those are two of my favorite Capcom characters designs of ALL TIME...I'd lose my mind if they ever got made.
