Notatki gracza
Zanim w połowie lat 70. XIX wieku zostaje rewolwerowcem, Jim "Boy" Calloway pracuje jako ranczer, zwiadowca armii i zastępca szeryfa. Jego sława rośnie wokół opowieści o szybkim dobywaniu broni lewą ręką oraz zabójstwach, w tym o walce w Lewsey Hollow. W 1873 roku jeździ z bliźniakami Newton, a trzy lata później ma ich zabić w Sylvia's Saloon, czemu sam zaprzecza. W 1882 roku Slim Grant zabija kuzyna Callowaya. Calloway przysięga zemstę, lecz nie zjawia się na umówionym pojedynku.
W 1899 roku Calloway jest już zapomnianym pijakiem. Arthur Morgan znajduje go nieprzytomnego w Keane's Saloon w Valentine, obok pisarza Theodore'a Levina, który tworzy biografię starego rewolwerowca. Levin wysyła Arthura do dawnych znajomych Callowaya, Emmeta Grangera, Flaco Hernándeza, Billy'ego Midnighta i Black Belle. Gdy Arthur ponownie spotyka Levina i Callowaya na rzecznym statku w Saint Denis, Granger, Hernández i Midnight nie żyją, a Black Belle przekazała już swoją relację.
Levin chce przypisać Callowayowi te starcia, ale Calloway odrzuca to kłamstwo i żąda, by Arthur przyprowadził Slim Granta. Grant nie chce stanąć do pojedynku, odchodzi, a Calloway strzela mu w plecy. Zawstydzony tym strzałem i rozgniewany reakcją Arthura, Calloway wyzywa go na pojedynek. Arthur zabija go w walce. Levin twierdzi potem, że Grant strzelił Callowayowi w plecy po tym, jak Calloway śmiertelnie go ranił, i wpisuje porażki pozostałych rewolwerowców do legendy Callowaya.
Ciekawostki
- ◆Calloway and Ansel Atherton are the only explicitly left-handed characters in the Red Dead series.
- ◆Calloway's Revolver is an obtainable weapon. When inspected, the engravings on it read: "Canis Canem Edit" - a Latin phrase meaning "dog eat dog", which is a synonym for "every man for himself" or "survival of the fittest". This is potentially a reference to the European/PAL title of another Rockstar game, known in North America as Bully.
- ◆Levin's published fabrication of Calloway's death omits the player's involvement entirely; even the in-game Compendium incorrectly states that Calloway was shot in the back by Slim Grant, in his unique revolver description. Looking at the protagonist's journal reveals they do not mind however, preferring to 'slip back into obscurity.'
- ◆In the book Wild West Heroes, No. 132, Calloway has an encounter with Landon Ricketts while trying to infiltrate a Mexican besiegement of a US Army fort. Ricketts initially holds Calloway at gunpoint and they briefly converse, with Ricketts letting Calloway know the reality of the situation (bandits control the fort, and the leader of the Mexicans is after the same man as Calloway) and join forces. It is not known to what extent this story is true.
- ◆The story mentions Calloway as a lawman with a history of being a rancher and an Army scout, and in the story, he was after Clanton Fitch, who killed his brother in Blackwater. None of this is stated or alluded to by Calloway, Levin, or any other source of information on him, although it's not necessarily an impossibility given Calloway's alleged experience as a gunslinger.
- ◆Ben Calloway reveals he and Jim are cousins while shopping at his store.
- ◆Calloway is implied to have deceased relatives buried in the cemetary by the Valentine Church.
- ◆While Jim Calloway technically does not have a unique dueling strategy, he will use his belt buckle to reflect the sunlight to blur the player's view as he leans back to save drawing time.
- ◆Jim 'Boy' Calloway takes some inspiration from the real-life gunfighter John Wesley Hardin:
- ◆Calloway is believed to have killed around 16 other gunslingers throughout his life - John Wesley Hardin attributed himself the killings of more than three dozen of men in several shootouts, however evidence suggests most of these killings could have been exaggerated or fabricated.
- ◆Both exaggerated their stories in order to gain notoriety, although John Wesley didn't travel with a writer, as he wrote his own autobiography while being imprisoned in the Texas State Penitentiary.
- ◆Alcoholism heavily affected their skills and reputations as gunfighters.
- ◆Just like John Wesley, Calloway was left-handed, and also favored the Schofield Revolver, the Red Dead equivalent of the Smith & Wesson No. 3.
