Answer:

Cleopatra

Step-by-step explanation:

Cleopatra is a powerful woman who wears her sexuality on her sleeve. She can be impetuous and erratic, jumping from one emotion to another (especially early in the play). She often manipulates Antony by calling his love into question or pretending to be dead, for example. Nonetheless, Cleopatra is brave, and, especially later in the play, is presented in a noble, tragic light. After the death of Antony, she faces her death and chooses to determine her own fate rather than suffer the humiliation of being Octavius’ servant, slave, or prisoner.
