Caleb is considered, by many, as an [[anti-hero]]. One who does not care for those surrounding him, all except his own love interest, '''''Ophelia'''''.

This is his story.

In an age and a region renowned for cruelty and violence, Caleb was legendary. Born in 1847, western '''''[[Texas''''']], he had sealed a reputation, at the age of 17, as a merciless gunfighter. However seven years later when he met Ophelia Price, his hunger for bloodshed took on a menacing new timbre.

Ophelia was Caleb's doorway to the [[Cult]] and its dark purpose. He could not have known that in time he would come to love her, nor that their service to the '''''Cult''''' would find the two of them beloved among the '''''Chosen''''', elite servants of the dreaming god '''''Tchernobog''''', the One That Binds, Devourer of Souls.

In the '''''Hall of the Epiphany''''', a temple that spans the chasm between the worlds, the four remaining Chosen stand at the forefront of a procession of worshippers. Tchernobog's presence is felt more than seen-the great, frigid weight of a hunger that spans millennia. He speaks in a cacophony of voices stolen from the dead, summoning the Chosen to the center of the sacrificial ring. They stand before the Dark God, united by a sudden, inexplicable sense of doom.
