Nextcord Fight Command Organization and Suggestions

I created an extremely basic fight command in Nextcord. The command is like so:

/fight [your character] [your weapon] [your enemy] [enemy's weapon]

Each character and weapon is assigned their own strength, speed, and defense stats. And the stats are all added up to find their final stat. Then it does the same for the enemy and it calculates the outcome.

What I would like to do is make my code more organized, and the command more intricate. For example giving someone who has overall lower statistics a chance to win due to being faster. Currently I feel like a lot of the entering is manual so making new characters is very tedious. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, I am planning on giving certain characters and weapons negative values for certain stats. Such as giving the katana negative defense and spork negative strength.

My current code for the fight cog:

class fight(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client

    testServerID = 948362430256410685

    @nextcord.slash_command(name = "fight", description = "does fight stuff idk", guild_ids=[testServerID])
    async def fight(self, interaction: Interaction, char1, weapon1, char2, weapon2):
    # Speed            
        sDre = 3
        sHenry = 4
        sSonic = 10
        sNub = 3
        sGod = 5

If you would keep data in dictionaries

class Fight(commands.Cog):
    
    testServerID = 948362430256410685

    char_speed = {           
        'Dre': 3,
        'Henry': 4,
        'Sonic': 10,
        'Nub': 3,
        'God': 5,
        'Pewdiepie': 6,
    }        

    char_strength = {
        'Dre': 3,
        'Henry': 6,
        'Sonic': 5,
        'Nub': 4,
        'God': 5,
        'Pewdiepie': 6,
    }

    char_defense = {
        'Dre': 6,
        'Henry': 7,
        'Sonic': 5,
        'Nub': 5,
        'God': 5,
        'Pewdiepie': 6,
    }

    # ... other ...

then you could write it as

@nextcord.slash_command(name="fight", description="does fight stuff idk", guild_ids=[testServerID])
async def fight(self, interaction: Interaction, char1, weapon1, char2, weapon2):

    if (char1 in self.char_speed) and (char1 in self.char_strength) and (char1 in self.char_defense): 
        fighterstat = self.char_speed[char1] + self.char_strange[char1] + self.char_defense[char1]
    else:
        print('Unknow char1:', char1)

    # ... other ...

and if you would need more characters then you would have to only add values to dictionares – without changing rest of code.

You could even read data from file. Or you could add discord command which adds character.

EVentually you could group by character and weapon

class Fight(commands.Cog):
    
    testServerID = 948362430256410685
    
    character = {
        'Dre':   {'speed': 3,  'strength': 3, 'defense': 6},
        'Henry': {'speed': 4,  'strength': 6, 'defense': 7},
        'Sonic': {'speed': 10, 'strength': 5, 'defense': 5},
        'Nub':   {'speed': 3,  'strength': 4, 'defense': 5},
        'God':   {'speed': 5,  'strength': 5, 'defense': 5},
        'Pewdiepie': {'speed': 6, 'strength': 6, 'defense': 6},
    }        

    weapon = {
        'Katana': {'speed': 6,  'strength': 3, 'defense': 1},
        # ... code ...
    }

and then it could be simpler

@nextcord.slash_command(name="fight", description="does fight stuff idk", guild_ids=[testServerID])
async def fight(self, interaction: Interaction, char1, weapon1, char2, weapon2):

    if char1 in self.character:
        data = self.character[char1]
        fighterstat = data['speed'] + data['strange'] + data['defense']
    else:
        print('Unknow char1:', char1)


    # ... other ...
