2 things and a topic all my own

As far as moves go...You maybe could have some magic that like, gives your blade extra properties? Question Mark? That's tricky with the way that moves work in OG, but might be worth looking into.

My vote is for russel but ah...

A word of advice for choosing a character: Be sure to diversify both source and personality. Writing with a character from the same source as your other one (i.e. fairy tale) will close a lot of doors for you, and might even cause your writing to become a little stagnant. It's good to branch out.

--EDIT--

You may even consider taking a character from somewhere other than Anime. Maybe do a book character, like Percy Jackson or something.

Well for an alt I mentioned being inclined to do a villain! I'm pretty sure I'm going to, it's just a matter of deciding and getting a little more versed with the kind of villains I would want to write, which is a bit narrow. Usually the villains I like have a kick ass rival. 

If you've seen psycho pass, makashima appeals to me in certain ways, and also DL mentioned that a 3rd character can be a sort of novelty, and perhaps one that is comedic but obviously I'm not looking for that, villains however can be rich and I don't have to post a lot if I don't want to, but the plot can still be solid and thick without a doubt.

As to expanding my horizons, I'm trying to, usually I incorporate NPCS or I'm trying to do storyteller things soon that will help in this way. But like you said t doesn't have to be an anime, i was considering Sirius black from harry potter because he's an AWESOME character but on the other hand, do I really want ALL my characters to be mages? Ughhhhh! So thus I'm back to villains. Will probably go with a MALE villain because I don't know if I find many female villains that actually want to kill people and such. 

Makashima was added to my list, which is still pretty small. The suggestions above helped too, with villains, because while I'm still not sure which angle I'll go with, I'm excited to have options and the opportunity to try new things
