The main character, or protagonist, is the one the story's about. The character who is in most of the scenes -- or talked about the most -- will be the main character.

A main character is usually the protagonist (good guy) in a story. The story revolves around them, their adventures, their encounters, and their memories. The main character is often the narrator of a story but doesn't have to be.

Is the story about them? The main character is the one that everything happens to, the character who changes over the course of the story.

The person or persons who are essential to the plot of the story are the main characters. If they story can still happen without them, they're not main characters.

Why do authors not tell you outright about the main character and where they are in the first chapter?

You'd have to ask him or her yourself, of course. But I believe writer's like to keep secrets and mysteries until the perfect moment. Besides, bringing out the main character right off slows the story down. There has to be smaller characters that know this main character that bring it to life. With other characters that aren't as important, it's easier for a writer to tell you about the setting and plot. They can worry about the main character later!
