In your very own citation, the word used is STORYBOOK. This is also present in "Pilot"'s opening slides, as "classic characters". See it here. The creators have confirmed this for us in show by including very non fairytale characters. Does Emma use the phrase "fairytale characters"? Yes. She does, in a moment of disbelief, she does. However, that doesn't change what three season of the show (and its creators) have shown us as fact.

The only non-fairy tale character I've seen on the show is Dr. Frankenstein... but he is a "classic" character... who am I not thinking of?
