What roles did Lenin play in the Russian Revolution?

Lenin was the mastermind behind the October Revolution. He was put into exile in early 1917, but the Germans thought he would subvert the morale of the Russian Army, so they sent him on a train to Petrograd. From there he organized the group known as the Bolsheviks. He made sure that Bolsheviks were organising in the army and navy and in the large factories across the empire. He also began plotting for the provisional government's downfall. He attempted to put his plan in action in July 1917, but it failed, and he fled to Finland. But the provisional government needed his Bolsheviks in order to help quell a Tsarist mutiny in the army, and soon he was able to return. During the events of the October Revolution he directed the activities from the Bolshevik headquarters at the Smolny Institute. Had Lenin not been in Russia, it is highly unlikely that the Bolsheviks would have begun the October Revolution.
