rambo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'character' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'a wild boar going round maidenhead' is the wordplay.
'a wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'going round' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'maidenhead' becomes 'm' (head letter of 'maiden').
'boar' anagrammed gives 'rabo'.
'rabo' going around 'm' is 'RAMBO'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
