This is a solution for UTF8 encoded strings. The type of c is String, also encoded as UTF-8. An empty string is returned if s is empty.
{$modeswitch unicodestrings}
c := s[Length(s)];
The {$modeswitch unicodestrings} makes the compiler use unicodestrings, whereas by default strings are single byte encoded. c is of type WideChar (2 bytes wide) If s is empty an exception will be raised, since the code then accesses s[0], and strings are 1-based in Pascal
$c = substr($s, -1, 1);
If $s is empty or undefined, $c is the empty string.

PLen: PtrInt;

Result := '';
p := UTF8CodepointStart(PChar(S), Length(S), Utf8Length(S) - 1);
PLen := UTF8CodepointSize(p);
Result := p;
SetLength(Result,PLen);
end;
var
s: string;
begin
c := GetLastUtfCodePoint(s);
end.
