In America corporations are treated as people and have "rights" of sorts. I am sure if we went far enough down that rabbit hole we could come up with some for the fantasy characters. Can't have them being programmed to feel offended later after all!

That's a bit different, those are legal entities and are absolute common in most parts of the world. Still, they don't have the protection that natural persons have (Don't have human rights protection for example).
The only way I can imagine a fantasy character "having" rights would be associated with author's rights of the person who owns them. There are things that are part of the protection of the character/creation and it's integrity. Still, the one with rights would be the author or the ones who own the rights and not the character and in this case it wouldn't apply since the owner and creator made the characters in that way.
