Feel free to use or not use other, or make a quick picture instead of a description for looks. I will come to this forum often to look through the submissions. If your character is put into the final game, I'll throw you in on the credits.
Edit: Personality is there for the taunts/voiceovers.

Is it Straight down Overhead view ? .... if so you could use my "Snakes and the FatMan" character, the FatMan
If not, you can still use it, but would need to redraw the sprites (they aren't smooth anyways)
He could spin with his hammer and throw snakes at ya ... he'd have slow walking until he spins, and you'd need to keep the balance bar in check just like in my Snakes and the FatMan game. He could knock back projectiles with his hammer but have no defense against overhead attacks (there is gonna be jumping right?) ...
