Mirror's Edge[]

Callaghan is never seen in game nor in any cutscenes, though they are mentioned infrequently. Callaghan was not initially conceived a threat to the Runners, however, Mirror's Edge (mobile) provides more background information on Callaghan and the mayoral conspiracy.

After Robert Pope's murder, Faith's sister Kate Connors instructed her to contact Miller, Kate's superior, with any new information. Faith deems him trustworthy. However, she then sees him meeting with PK's CEO Travis Burfield. Miller was, in fact, looking for information about Pope's murder. He learns that Ropeburn had hired an assassin to kill Pope. Meeting up with the assassin, Faith learns that Callaghan forced Celeste to kill Pope through blackmail.

On top of the Shard, Jacknife, holding Kate hostage, makes a remark about the "bigger fish" (The entity behind Robert Pope's assassination) and it is implied by Faith that it was Callaghan.

Mirror's Edge Mobile[]

Prior to the events portrayed in the game, Callaghan started employing questionable methods to win votes over Robert Pope, one of which was collaborating with Pirandello Kruger security firm to train a rogue gang of rooftop runners to go out and make a bad image of and smear the true Runners. This gang also caused the City Protection Force to be embarrassed in the public eye as they fail to apprehend the rogues. In turn, Callaghan used this as a valid excuse for hiring the private security firm to replace the CPF.

Callaghan is also depicted asking someone to make reservations for a lunch with PK's CEO, and to confirm all the arrangements for C's (Celeste Wilson) meeting with Pope. She states "Everyone's priority should now be on executing Project Icarus."
