• Jay Barnes wears a unique non-player character only trench coat and fedora that you can't take from his corpse.
• If the player hacks off a limb it will appear to have the entire trenchcoat scrunched up on the limb and the body will remain intact despite having the head/legs/arms severed.
• When resurrected via console, he immediately dies however resurrecting him using "resurrect 1" will make him stand up.
