I may have to peruse this a little more, but through my Network I came across the Female Character Flowchart. Now, I have to admit, I have complicated feelings about the notion of the Strong Female Character, which would be a whole essay I'd have to lay out. Maybe I'll know more once I've spent a little more time with this link. But there are a few names in the termini (is that the plural?) of the threads that (derogatory, ambiguous or no) have this solid, elemental character that I really like: Final Girl. The Anchor. Lady of War. Mystical Artifact. They sound like tarot cards.
Hilariously, "Lady Macbeth" is an option, somewhere in the upper left (along with "Girl Hitler" and "Psycho Feminist Lesbian Amazon"), but, uh, when I traced her out she went straight to the "Congratulations!" bubble.
