Caleb is in his thirties and has the look of a stern man[2] with plenty of authority. This impression is correct, as he is the commander of the Regulators,[3] the police force that is the true power in Adytum.[4] Although he derives his authority nominally from Jon Zimmerman,[5] he and his men are their own masters.
He hates the gangs of the Boneyard with a passion, particularly the Blades, who attempt to undermine his authority and remove his Regulators from Adytum. To manufacture a casus belli against them, he ordered his subordinate, Cravotta, to kill Jon Zimmerman's son in a way that would allow him to frame the Blades for the murder.[1]
