Just passing through, saw this, and couldn't resist adding a couple more:
Carlo from Captain Corelli's Mandolin, who ends up sacrificing himself for Corelli. And Countess Geschwitz from Frank Wedekind's Pandora's Box, who gives up more than anyone else to help and protect Lulu, and gets called a monster by Lulu and killed by Jack the Ripper for her pains.
