Caleb McCaffery

Caleb McCaffery is a bounty hunter living near New Vegas in 2281.

Background
McCaffery formerly worked at the Atomic Wrangler for the Garrets' and is implied to have been their debt collector prior to their hiring of the Courier - the fact that they had to hire the Courier in the first place suggests he did a poor job. He quit himself but before quitting Caleb stole a large sum of caps, leading the Garrets to send the Courier to deal with him.

Personality
Caleb is incredibly arrogant and condescending, deriding the Courier as beneath his notice. This is apparently how he treats nearly everyone, as he's made a reputation as being a pig. McCaffery always refers to the courier as kid (despite their actual age) showing just how little he cares about them. When he gets called out on this, he makes a veiled threat and essentially accuses the Courier of being rude themselves. Caleb also only got into bounty hunting because of his love of the fight (and possibly of killing), which speaks to kind of person he really is, and a Speech check is required to deal with him in any way other than violently.

Quests

 * Debt Collector: Caleb is a target in the quest Debt Collector. The Courier is asked to kill him, since he fled to the Strip. He is standing just outside of Gomorrah. Alternatively, if your Speech skill is high enough, you can let him walk free by just taking his hat and a few bottle caps so that the Garrett twins think that he's dead.

Effects of the player's actions

 * If the player kills Caesar, Caleb will say "All hail the slayer of Caesar!"

Appearances
Caleb McCaffery appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * If you request Caleb's hat and then kill him without equipping the hat it will become permanently embedded in your inventory unable to remove as it is a quest item and cannot be given to the Garrets because they are quite happy he's dead. This presents no issues as quest items carry no weight.
 * If you kill him in the Atomic Wrangler, his body can be found in the Strip.
 * His body might remain in the Strip indefinitely when killed.
