Some of the background I've posted in character introductions.

Leland's father is a well-known and respected figure in the book dealing community. Leland strives to gain his approval. Leland's older brother was the fathers favorite and heir apparent to the father's business until his untimely death in an auto accident. Leland lives in his brother's shadow and can never seem to live up to it or to please his father.

Leland knows Josh through Josh's writing of several occult and horror themed short stories. Josh came into Barlow Books one day doing research for a story he was working on. Josh has since used Leland's knowledge and resources often for his writings. The two have formed a friendly and professional relationship.

Leland knows Gregory in much the same way as he knows Josh. Through Gregory's use of Leland's knowledge and resources on the occult and supernatural.

Leland and Harmon have worked together in the past assisting each other in research, etc.

And Leland is acquainted with Max as the latter has visited Barlow Books on several occasions.

This sound reasonable to everyone?

What about weapons and items?

That's entirely up to you, think about what you might carry and any particular possession you might keep in your home that you have collected over the years. It doesn't need to be a detailed list and things can be easily obtained. I don't worry too much about money, you have a certain amount of cash in the bank for large purchases, assets that encompass your home, car etc and you'll have a figure for daily expenses, how much you can afford for things you need immediately.
