Added DiffLines:

* BreakingTheFellowship: They are protected by ka, but once their duty to it is done, the ka-tet breaks, and per the narration, "breaks fast". [[spoiler:Eddie is killed via gunshot to the head, Jake dies again saving King's life, and Suzannah, unable to go further, walks into another world.]]

Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* CoolGuns: Roland's guns, two large antique [[RevolversAreJustBetter revolvers]] with intricately carved sandalwood grips (that apparently resemble a Colt Single Action Army model) were inherited from his father's line all the way back to Arthur Eld and were said to be forged out of the steel of {{Excalibur}} itself.

A ka-tet is a group of individual beings with a shared purpose brought together by "ka", an approximate equivalent of destiny, fate and/or karma. Ka is said to be the will of Gan, the ultimate creator in Creator/StephenKing's multiverse and is entirely neutral and does not recognize or favor good or evil, it can and will manipulate both sides. During his life, Roland Deschain has been the leader (or "dinh") of two different ka-tets, the first comprised of himself, Cuthbert Allgood, Alain Johns, Jamie De Curry and allies and honorary members, Susan Delgado and Sheemie Ruiz. The second, the "Ka-tet of Nineteen and Ninety-Nine" is comprised of himself, Jake Chambers, Eddie Dean, Susannah Dean, their animal companion Oy, and ally and honorary member Father Donald Callahan, who are the main protagonists of the ''Dark Tower'' series.

Added DiffLines:

* CombatPragmatist: He was officially, brutally, ruthlessly trained to be one of these. To offer one specific example, he will [[InTheBack backshoot]] opponents without hesitation if it gains him an advantage.

Hurting Hero is a disambiguation


* HurtingHero: See HeartbrokenBadass above, poor Roland has a ''lot'' of emotional baggage by the end of the series.
