Line 32:
* [[Always Chaotic Evil]]: The blacks in "The Moon of Skulls" and the Akaana.
* [[Ancient Africa]]: Some stories are set here.
* [[Anti -Hero]]: Type II
* [[Badass Boast]]: A bit more somberly stated that most, but "It has fallen upon me, now and again in my sojourns through the world, to ease various evil men of their lives." Almost a [[Badass Creed]], as he seems to like using the phrase (Once in The Blue Flame of Vengeance, once in The Castle of the Devil).
* [[Badass Normal]]: It's a [[Robert E Howard|Robert E. Howard]] character.
Line 48:
* [[The Determinator]] / [[Always Gets His Man]]: Kane will pursue wrong-doers all along continents to avenge the innocent.
* [[Devil but No God]]: Kane comes across various kinds of supernatural phenomena in his travels, both good and evil, but never anything that would confirm the existence of his God, and this causes him a great deal of internal turmoil.
* [[Dual -Wielding]]: Kane often uses a rapier and a dagger.
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: Kane sometimes battles these.
* [[Eloquent in My Native Tongue]]: N'longa. When he speaks to Kane through his dreams and in one of the river language Kane knows, he's impressively well-spoken to the point of delivering a fairly epic [[Dark Is Not Evil]] speech at the end of "The Hills of the Dead". However, he sticks to pidgin English when talking to Kane simply because he's proud that he's learned it.
Line 56:
* [[Harping On About Harpies]]: The akaanas from "Wings in the Night"
* [[Helping Hands]]: "The Right Hand of Doom"
* [[In HarmsHarm's Way]]
* [[Inn of No Return]]: "Rattle of Bones"
* [[ItsIt's Probably Nothing]]: In "Footfalls Within", the titular footfalls are blithely dismissed as "nothing" by a bunch of slavers, with foreseeable consequences.
* [[Kangaroo Court]]: The poem "The One Black Stain" deals with the aftermath of the ([[Real Life]]) trial and execution of Thomas Doughty by Sir Francis Drake:

Line 68:
* [[Knight Errant]]: Kane.
* [[Knight Templar]]: Kane

* [[Lost World]]: "The Moon of Skulls"
* [[Magical Negro]]: N'Longa
