Gresham Reily

Name: Gresham Reily
Age: 38
Gender: Male
Role: Level 2 Contact of Lester's

Description: Gresham is a Caucasian male who is in his late 30's. The most obvious thing about the man when first met is that he is confined to a wheelchair. A good guess might place his height at 6'0 and his weight is anybody's guess, though he looks to be in shape. His hair is dark and professionally cut short. His eyes are dark. He dresses in tailored suits and high-end clothing as a regular practice.

History: Gresham Reily is a member of the Reily family out of England. His grandfather, Joseph Reily, was a business magnate whose dealings rose his family into the extreme upper echelon of wealth. The family is arguably in the top twenty of the world's most wealthiest. Upon Joseph's death, Gresham became a trust-fund billionaire.

Gresham suffered incomplete paraplegia as the result of a horse-riding accident when he was fairly young. He can use arm crutches, but prefers using his wheelchair. Being disabled early in life directed what would be considered "usual" boyish pursuits to more academic endeavors. He was afforded the best in private schooling and tutors, and found his passion for books while recuperating from his injury.

Because of his money, Gresham has been able to procure one of the best occult collections in the world. While the collection spans all sorts of items and curiosities, it is his personal library that is housed deep within the bowels of his fenced off manor just outside of New Orleans, LA, that is particularly well-known. He is a known bibliophile, and can often be found at just about any auction or estate sale where known occult items, and especially books, are rumored to be. He's a collector with very, very deep pockets, and most often the bane to any other would be buyer if an item is especially desired.
