Who are some iconic characters in cyberpunk stories?

In some cyberpunk anime, like 'Ghost in the Shell', there are relationships that can be considered. For example, Major Kusanagi and Batou have a unique bond. While not a traditional romantic couple in the sense, their relationship has elements of deep connection and mutual understanding that are somewhat like love in the context of the cyberpunk world. They support each other in their missions and in dealing with the moral and ethical issues of a world filled with advanced technology and artificial intelligence. Also, in some lesser - known cyberpunk short stories, there are characters like Lin and Kai. Lin is a cybernetic artist and Kai is a tech - savvy rebel. Their relationship is based on their shared love for creativity and their fight against the over - controlling corporate entities in their cyberpunk city.

Freddy Krueger from 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' is very iconic. He has a burned and disfigured face and can enter people's dreams to kill them. His weapon, the glove with razors, is also quite recognizable.

Well, Edmond Dantes from 'The Count of Monte Cristo' is an iconic character in a fictional betrayal story. He is betrayed by his so - called friends, who frame him and send him to prison unjustly. His journey then becomes about getting revenge on those who betrayed him. Also, in 'Hamlet', Claudius is an iconic character of betrayal. He betrays his brother, King Hamlet, by murdering him and then marrying his widow, Gertrude, which sets off the chain of tragic events in the play.

Aragorn from 'The Lord of the Rings' can be considered one. He has to deal with the political aspects of uniting different kingdoms against Sauron. Also, Tyrion Lannister from 'A Song of Ice and Fire'. He is constantly involved in the political games of Westeros, using his wits despite his family's prejudice against him.

The cowboy is an iconic character. He's tough, rides horses well, and is often good with a gun. Another is the sheriff. He's the one who keeps law and order in town. And the outlaw, like Jesse James, is also very well - known, representing the lawless side of the old west.

Well, there's Mad Max from the post - apocalyptic fantasy world. He has been wronged in so many ways, and his actions can be seen as a form of revenge against those who have taken away his peace and normal life. In the world of Japanese anime - like fantasy, there's Guts from 'Berserk'. His life is full of tragedies and he is on a path of revenge against the forces that have brought him so much pain. He battles demons and all sorts of evil in a very brutal way. And in some classic European - inspired fantasy, we might consider the character of Robin Hood.
