1 both characters but I had my OC Caira in mind as I was writing this. I like natural moves, she's a Mage but also uses a sword and magic (elemental) so I have a lot to work with. She doesn't like to hurt people though, so I have to keep that in mind when I write up her skill set and moves
2 Sherlock Holmes actually popped into my mind XD, but I don't want someone who is so clever it takes the fun and action out of a story, so I guess I don't want someone witty. And I want someone who is relatable, at least, in the sense where I can make the reader understand why he wants to "wage war on secondaries" or steal valuable items or murder people with little regard. We had a character a LONG while back and I really liked the way he did his. It was jojo's Dio, and while he tended to do a more wit-involved sequence, the suspense was quite tangible in the events he was involved in.
As for your comparisons I'd love to narrow down my general idea. I'm leaning toward an OC because I don't find I can relate to many villains without being a tad obtuse about it. I like Loki AS a villain, but I worry I wouldn't be able to play someone as mischievous as him, well enough.
