Alain Johns
Alain Johns is one of Roland's two oldest friends in Gilead, a deliberate, steady apprentice gunslinger strong in the touch, who rides with Roland in Wizard and Glass after a first appearance in The Gunslinger.
Alain Johns is one of Roland's two oldest friends, along with Cuthbert Allgood, and a fellow apprentice gunslinger: heavyset, deliberate, so slow and careful in conversation that strangers mistake him for dull.

In the tale of Roland's youth he rides to the Barony of Mejis alongside Roland and Cuthbert, the quiet balance point of the three.
