When a 15-year-old can be manlier than Dante from DMC, then you know she's badass.

That's hardly what I would describe as "being manlier", but okay. Mayhaps appearing "tougher" or something along those lines, but she hardly exerts masculine characteristics. And even then, I still don't really see the toughness part. She's holding a bloody knife, which for all the viewer knows could be animal blood, and staring a little too intensely at the camera. And Dante isn't exactly a prime example of masculine fighters, he looks like he should be in a boy band. Just sayin'. >>

I change my favourite character to no one, they all disgust me.

I know this is old, but I was gone.
How many humans does she run across exactly that she can brutally murder and drench her knife in their blood?
How can it be human blood if she never fights humans?
And if it's the Red Queen's blood, if she could even be considered human, how does that support your empathy argument, since she is portrayed as the insane, murderous villian and is probably one of the hardest characters to feel empathy towards.

If anything that has appeared in a videogame can be mentioned here, then that defeats the whole point of the thread - it is far too broad...

My definition of a video game character is one that primarily features in video games, over all other media.

Doesn't mean this broadness is a good thing.

EDIT. Furthermore, if going by that logic, you would also have to only have access to characterisation of said character only within the games, and not other media. And most cross-media games do this terribly.
