Background/History: Eddie Dean comes from New York in the year 1987. He and his brother Henry had always been together trying to squeak out a life on the rough streets. Unfortunately both Eddie and Henry got caught up in the drug dealing Empire of Enrico Balazar. He and his brother had become big time heroin addict. However, they ended up owing Enrico a lot of money. Henry had been using Eddie as a crutch while Eddie tried to help Henry by getting them both supplied. Roland had brought Eddie into his world through the first door he opened during a drug smuggling run on a commercial flight. Eddie was about to be found out, but Roland's ability to inhabit Eddie's body through the strange door and take things from Eddie's World to his own. In the end of the encounter, Eddie's brother Henry was beheaded by Enrico's men as Roland and Eddie fought and killed the gang. With that, Eddie Dead was brought into Roland's world.

Personality/Motivation: It took a great long while for Eddie on his journey with Roland to get over his heroin addiction. It had caused many problems for the both of them during their journey up the Mid-World beach as they looked for the last two doors Roland needed to find. But after the three had been drawn (and all doors dealt with), Eddie was able to leave his addiction behind, however his addictive heart still remained intact. As for Roland's quest. Eddie was never a big fan of it. All he wanted to do was be with Roland, Jake and Susanna and not have to worry about the quest at all. He had found his family in the other three members of the Ka-Tet and that was enough for him. But Roland, Jake and sometimes Susanna drove them on towards the Dark Tower and deeper into trouble. Eddie has a very casual and non-serious attitude toward life, but that doesn't mean he can't be serious when it comes down to it.

Quote: "I got one for ya Blain. Why'd the chicken cross the road?"

Powers/Tactics: Of the Ka-Tet, Eddie was the least inclined to use guns. At least, he didn't take to Roland's training as much as Jake or Susanna did. He did however find that his love for making carvings had come back to him from his childhood. This however would not stop Eddie from helping out in a fight as he is still able to fire off an iron shooter with the rest of them.

Appearance: Eddie looks like your average joe found anywhere in the world. Brown Eyes, square jawed, Longish brown hair, mostly from not having any proper barber to go to on the road to the Dark Tower. At one time he would have looked like the dead from years of drug abuse, but now with so many months on the road he is at the prime of his health and fairly durable. He stands only a few inches shorter than Roland, but definitely doesn't carry the poise and deadly manner that Roland seems to radiate.
