Yes, that's correct! In the story "The Most Dangerous Game," the character of Zaroff serves as a foil to the protagonist, Rainsford. A foil is a character who contrasts with another character in order to highlight their distinct qualities and characteristics. In this case, Zaroff's personality sharply contrasts Rainsford's. While Rainsford is a skilled and experienced hunter who values life and fair play, Zaroff is a cunning and ruthless hunter who sees the act of hunting humans as a thrilling game. Their opposing thoughts and actions create a stark contrast that helps to emphasize Rainsford's virtues and moral compass.

Yes, foil.
