Ghaz, calm down mate... (actually you're probably calm but that's beside the point )

You need to seriously stop taking major references, and make up your own concepts. All of my characters, all of Keroko's characters, heck almost everyone's characters are original. Their physical appearances may be based off of other material, but none of them uses the traits that those characters are known for.
I should take this time to point out that just about everything imagianable has been thought up by someone else already so inevitably you're going to have some parallels to characters in other worlds. The trick is to come up with a combination that is fairly unique.

Also on the Reinforcement technique that Cort has included, I would say that the majority of the Belkan OC's will have a similar spell so your point is rather moot. It's in canon already so there's no point re-inventing something that already works. If you're making it better in some way, well that's a different kettle of fish

Need to get to class now so I'll be back later.
