Do you really need more characters or only a sorting with the current
available characters? Creating a charset and creating a collation sequence
are different tasks. If you only need another sorting, add it (develop) to
the proper charset. Otherwise, you have to implement the charset and the
colation.

You should connect with the same charset than your fields use for having
good effects.
