Grandpa Smedry has a very energetic and optimistic personality. He's vigorous and fit, despite his old age.
Leavenworth came to [[Alcatraz]]'s house the day after [[Shasta Smedry]] stole the [[Sands of Rashid]]. He was late. After saving Alcatraz from a Librarian assassin,{{book ref|a1|3}} he led Alcatraz, [[Sing Sing Smedry|Sing]], [[Quentin Smedry|Quentin]], and [[Bastille]] on an infiltration of the downtown library to recover the sands. There, he faced [[Radrian Blackburn]] in an Oculator's Duel and lost, but was saved by Alcatraz.{{book ref|a1|18}}
 
Leavenworth spent a few more months in the Hushlands, but separated from Alcatraz when he received a message from Shasta saying that [[Attica Smedry]] had gone to the [[Library of Alexandria]]. He arrived too late to stop Attica from giving his soul to the Curators of Alexandria or reclaim Attica's possessions before Shasta.
== Abilities and Attributes ==

In result, Leavenworth was late in reference to the time Alcatraz had given him, but still arrived earlier than he would normally.
 
During the infiltration of the [[Highbrary]], he played an instrumental role in keeping [[Himalaya]] and her team of Librarians alive by engaging all the Highbrary's fans at top speed, thereby disorganizing a large quantity of books and distracting their assailants. He arrived late to Attica's confrontation with Shasta and Alcatraz, at which point [[Biblioden]] revealed his true identity by shooting him in the head. However, his Talent returned just in time, and he began using it to arrive late to his own death.{{book ref|a5|part=Bastille's Letter}}
