Latest revision as of 16:54, 22 August 2023
Some or all of these characters need descriptions. A list of tropes is not a description. Please provide at least a few words telling how these characters differ from other characters with the same tropelists. |
Characters from The Stand include:
Boulder
Abagail Freemantle
Abagail is God's prophet on Earth and the guide to the main characters. She is a 108-year-old black woman who lives in Nebraska. Almost every main character dreams of her sitting on her porch, playing her guitar, usually directly after they have a disturbing dream about the Big Bad. |
A description of the character goes here.
- 108: She's 108 years old when the story sets.
- Big Good
- Cool Old Lady
- Dream Weaver
- Final Speech / Prescience Is Predictable
- I Sense a Disturbance In The Force: Ruby Dee (in the miniseries) even looks like Yoda, and she's a prophet so it's justified.
- Magical Negro: Played with. Abagail most certainly has supernatural insight and ends up being the emotional and moral center of the BFZ, so much so that the council - which is all white - make sure to give her absolute veto power over any of their decisions, lest it look like they were trying to wrest power from her.
- Meaningful Name: Abagail Freemantle
- Sacrificial Lion
- Waif Prophet: Mother Abagail is so old she verges on a Blind Seer.
- Wasteland Elder
Stuart Redman
Stu Redman grew up in Arnette, Texas, and was stuck working in a calculator factory to support his brother when his parents died. When the Superflu's Patient Zero crashed into the gas station in his town, Stu was transplanted to a plauge control center in Vermont. A redneck with a heart of gold, Stu quickly became a leader among survivers. |
A description of the character goes here.
- Action Survivor
- Cincinnatus: Stu is reluctant to be Marshal of the Free Zone, and ultimately leaves for New England.
- The Everyman
- Fist of Rage: When he's talking to Franny after the explosion, and showing his anger toward Harold.

Call him Beelzebub, because that's his name, too. Call him Nyarlathotep and Ahaz and Astaroth. Call him R'lyeh and Seti and Anubis. His name is legion and he's an apostate of Hell and you men kiss his ass."

- It helped that he could pass for Affably Evil before he started to decompensate and, well, the Trains Run On Time.

Randall Flagg seems to feel sorry for Trash Can Man, and orders Lloyd to kill him painlessly; with anyone else, Flagg would likely have had them die painfully for kicks. When he's preparing to execute Larry Underwood and Ralph Bretner and force everyone to witness it, he allows parents and small children to excuse themselves.
- Power Floats
- Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: Initially, the consummation between Randall and Nadine was going to be consensual.

A description of the character goes here.
- Amoral Attorney
- Anti-Villain: Though Your Mileage May Vary. While he can commit some very bad crimes, he's really nothing more than a child in a man's body. He follows Flagg only because the guy saved him from starvation, and even then he begins to doubt him when his plans start to crumble.

A description of the character goes here.
- Berserk Button: "Hey Trash, what'd you do with old lady Semple's pension check?"
