OK, Alembic autogen isn't doing __repr__() for  "variant" correctly right now, 
we can look into that (added http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/2628) , for 
now you'd need to put your character_type() into the migration scripts 
manually, or subclass TypeDecorator to do it:

from sqlalchemy.types import TypeDecorator

class character_type(TypeDecorator):
    def __init__(self, length):
        self.impl = String(length).with_variant(... everything from before ...)

   def __repr__(self):
        return "character_type(%d)" % self.impl.length
