I seem unable to create a table of contents using
character styles. When I try to modify the TOC template
the only styles available to me are paragraph styles.

Is there a workaround to this problem?

You can't (permanently) apply any direct formatting to TOC entries unless
you unlink the TOC. But entries will pick up any direct formatting applied
to the headings they represent. What are you trying to accomplish?
