Leavis

Background

Leavis is the maître d' of the Jousters Gentlemen's Club in Liberty City, the exclusive club where Congressman Thomas Stubbs does business. He has an upper-class British accent and a formal, deferential manner. The game's credits list him as Maitre D.

Events of The Lost and Damned

Leavis appears in the cutscenes of two missions, each time as the first person Johnny Klebitz meets on entering the club.

In Politics, Leavis is offended by the biker and tries to throw him out. Johnny mocks him for acting superior while making a living serving rich people. Once Johnny explains that he is there to see Thomas Stubbs, Leavis drops the matter and shows him through.

Their second meeting, in Off Route, is friendlier. Leavis asks whether rebelling against the system has actually made Johnny happy, and the two talk about their very different ways of life. They end up agreeing that each of them can find happiness in his own way.

Trivia
