Leanna is a halfling born in the Shire. She lived her early years surrounded by loving parents that wanted to make their home even more beautiful and healthy. Unfortunately, around 2 years of age, she was included in a Warg ambush alongside her parents while they journeyed to Rivendell. An elf friend of theirs, Estilil, resided in the elven kingdom, who spent her time gathering herbs for the sick hobbits at the Shire and looking for the entwives on her free time. Her parents were in the middle of trying to figure out an illness spreading around the Shire and took Leanna with them so she didn't get sick as well. While her parents were being attacked, her mother unknowingly hid her in the roots of an Ent, but not before accidentally knocking baby Leanna's head against a sharp rock as she got attacked and dragged away by the wargs. After the encounter, the ent wakes up to Leanna's cries. This Ent, known as Firon, healed Leanna's wound with a magical draught made by the forest beings, which resulted int he growth of her unique leaf bundle. After, he carried the tiny lass to the edge of Rivendell where Estilil took her in an raised her. At 10 years old, the elf-mother carefully took Leanna back to the Shire where she could live the rest of her life in a land she was meant to grow up in. Bilbo had just inherited Bag End, which was a perfect opportunity to bring Leanna home. From there until the Events of the Hobbit, Leanna grew to be the lass she is today. She spends her time singing, painting, baking, and working as a barmaid at the Prancing Pony.

Personality: Leanna is very sweet, nurturing, but emotional and especially shy around newcomers. She is somewhat an anxious lass who is self-conscious about the leaves growing out of it on the right side. She is very close with her cousin Bilbo Baggins and as far as she is concerned, he is her older Brother. Her lack of courage in the beginning tends to do her more harm than good, and generally freezes at the sight of extreme danger. She giggles a lot whether she is nervous or actually happy. She is knowledgeable and enjoys singing, cooking and learning about medicine, hoping she could be more of use to the company. Of course, eventually, she opens up a bit more and becomes more confident as the journey goes on.
