Disappeared Dad: He finds the Mid-World expression "forgotten the face of my father" ironic, because he wouldn't recognize his father if he met him. When he introduces himself as "Eddie Dean of New York, son of Wendell" in Calla, he thinks that leastwise, his mother always said that.
Hyperactive Metabolism: Holy crap! Within a few hours after he was born ate two people, one of whom was Randall Fucking Flagg, and several animals, and he's still hungry!
Wizard Needs Food Badly: His only other motivations aside from a burning hatred of Roland and his Ka-tet are his constant hunger and a morbid fear of starvation.
Heterosexual Life Partners: Gasher and Hoots, another Gray, were always butt-buddies of old, says Tick-Tock. Hoots even writes down the password for gaining entry to the Cradle of the Grays and gives it to Gasher to help him remember, which Gasher seems quite grateful for (even though he can't read).
Complete Monster: Thinks that driving another AI to suicide is the height of humor.
Blaine claimed that Patricia had essentially had a mental breakdown and would not stop crying. He removed certain restraints from Patricia's programming so she could kill herself by going over a broken trestle into the Send, and so he wouldn't have to listen to her anymore.
Eye Scream: during his duel with Roland, Roland's hawk David claws out his bad eye, which was already blind.
Made of Iron: Gunslingers "graduated" from his class by beating the crap out of him; at least one of his predecessors had died during these coming-of-age duels. In the end, it was poison, probably, that killed him and not the duels.
Death by Origin Story: She was accidentally shot by a paranoid Roland after he discovered a plot to undermine Gilead; she was apparently going to try to make amends, but Roland's reflexes took over when he heard someone entering his room.
The Mole: Worked with the resistance leader, who was her lover.
Jerkass: A number of flashbacks in The Waste Lands show that Henry could often be pretty mean to Eddie, especially if he saw that Eddie was better at something than he was, such as basketball.
Father Donald Frank Callahan
The Alcoholic: In his backstory. At one point, Callahan wonders at having been a walking stereotype: an Irish Catholic priest with a drinking problem.
Dying Moment of Awesome: Having fully regained his faith, he kills ancient vampire lords in the Dixie Pig with his bare hands before being overwhelmed and deciding to shoot himself.
Fail O'Suckyname: His nickname in Calla Bryn Sturgis, "the Old Fella", is slang for 'penis' in some circles in Real Life.
Spotlight-Stealing Squad: A huge chunk of Wolves of the Calla is taken up by his explanation of what happened to him after the events of 'salem's Lot and how he ended up in Roland's world.
