I'm thinking of doing two OCs for the French fairy tale Anguillette. I previously did a community OC for it, but now I want to do full-fledged OCs for it. Here is a Google Translate of the French Wikipedia page for the story, and here is an English Translation I posted to Scribd (the text is from a 19th century book that included the story). It's got a tragic ending - the protagonist Hebe and her lover Atimir both die in the end.

One of them will be the successor of the protagonist Princess Hebe. (She will be female like Hebe.) The other will be the son of Hebe's husband, the Prince of the Peaceful Island. (The story has a bit of a love triangle between Hebe, her husband, and another prince.) Since Hebe's husband is widowed at the end of the story, is it okay if I have my OC based on him be the prince's son by a second wife? (Kinda like how on the show, Goldilocks and Little Red married way after their stories were over, hence we have Blondie and Cerise. So in this case the Prince of the Peaceful Island would get married again after his story is over.)

My idea for the male OC's personality is that he'd kind of be a "dogged nice guy" type of character that frequently falls for girls who clearly don't show interest in him.

Any ideas for design, appearance, etc.? And how do you think they should handle their destiny, considering the story's ending?

I don't need names since I've already thought them up.
