Characters

 

Lara Croft

Lara Croft is an adventurer, world traveler, and archeologist who seeks out tombs and relics, fuelled by an obsession to uncover the secrets of the great, ancient civilizations. She is a superb athlete, fluent in a dozen languages, and will stop at nothing to get what she wants.

Alister Fletcher

Alister Fletcher is Lara's research assistant and a repository for a fantastic array of detailed historical information. He confines his researches to libraries and museums, however, concentrating on understanding and explaining what has already been found, as opposed to Lara search for new artifacts. He's a 15th-year doctoral student at Oxford and hasn't received his doctorate because his belief that everything is connected to everything else makes it impossible for him to draw the boundaries required to get finish his dissertation.

Amanda Evert

Amanda Evert was one of Lara Croft's best friends at university. While she was a promising cultural anthropologist, she had a love of metaphysics and a fascination with mysticism that, in Lara's opinion, interfered with her ability to be an effective scientist. Amanda dreamed of rediscovering mystical knowledge from the past, knowledge that the scientific age not only lost sight of but actively drove out of the world. She hoped to then teach these forgotten truths to others so they could gain spiritual enlightenment. But her career, wherever it was headed, was cut short by a terrible, unexplained event in Peru, where her body remains with a dozen others in a collapsed tomb.

Anaya Imanu

Anaya Imanu is a civil engineer working in impoverished areas of South America.She's a friend of Lara's dating back to their days at university, and she was with Lara during the tragedy near Segou, Peru. She has since led a distinguished career of her own, routinely crossing paths with Lara.

James Rutland

The Rutland name has been attached to politicians and CEOs for decades - an American aristocracy - so James William Rutland Jr. grew up in a bubble of enormous wealth and privilege. He went to West Point and managed to graduate on his own merits, barely, And it gave him a sense of self-discipline and strength that he finds useful now that he's free of the military. Except for his time at West Point, he has never known scarcity or refusal. He is an energetic man who plays hard and has never been lazy in that regard, Though he works hard only in pursuit of his desires.

Shogo Takamoto

Shogo Takamoto was a rising star in the Japanese mob for years and now is a Yakuza Kumicho (boss). He has a love of ancient weapons, and he became a fixture in the upscale black market, frustrating collectors and adventures alike with his mixing of forgeries with authentic rare items, using the strength of the Yakuza to protect himself from cheated buyers. A confrontation with Lara Croft over some forged items, however, led to a loss of face so extreme that he was forced to withdraw from the antiquities underground. Why he did not kill her remains a mystery within the Yakuza, because the idea of him being unable to kill her is beyond belief.

Toru Nishimura

Toru Nishimura is a wealthy media magnate who owns a half-dozen television stations and newspapers throughout Southern Japan. His rise to this position was rapid, and he still enjoys acting like the journalist he once was, so his days aren't completely filled with corporate concerns. One investigation led to a corrupt cabinet minister, a priceless silver statuette, and a young archeologist who saved his life when the artifact turned out to be much more than it appeared. Lara Croft and he became friends after the incident, and they help each Other whenever needed.

Winston Smith

Winston's family has been with the Crofts for generations, and he has been the family butler since he was honorably discharged from the military in his late-twenties; just as his father before him. He moved into Croft Manor to stay as the only live-in staff when his wife died, before Lara was born. He tends to all Lara's household needs, going far beyond the duties of a traditional butler given Lara's unusual lifestyle and pursuits, but he has never disappointed her. His loyalty to Lara, her parents, and Croft Manor is beyond question.

Zip

Zip is Lara's right hand man and tech expert. Always in contact with Lara via her headset, he is able to instantly provide her with a wealth of information by accessing various electronic reference resources, and other online knowledge databases.In his spare time, he tinkers around with electronics, developing new technology that might prove useful to Ms.Croft in the field.In addition to being a savvy purveyor of all things "geeky", Zip is also a distinguished chef, and has worked in some of the best kitchens in nothern Europe.

 

Locations

 

England

"Croft Manor. Of the three Abbingdon estates my father left me, I consider this one to be my home."

Bolivia

"Anaya telephoned today. She heard rumour of an ancient temple in Bolivia that contains an ornate stone dais. Could be the one I'm looking for. I'm setting out first thing in the morning."

Peru

"Rutland implied a connection between the stone dais and the ruin near Segou. I hope Anaya will meet me there despite it all. We may not find anything besides a dozen corpses, Amanda's among them, but I have to know for certain."

Japan

"I haven't seen Takamoto in a longtime. I doubt he misses me after our last meeting. If he still has the artifact, however, he'll lose more than face Sunday night."

Africa

"The coordinates Zip provided are deep in the Ghana rainforest. I don't know what Rutland is after, but I'm sure he keeps that artifact close to him. I'll have to convince him to part with it."

Russia

"The sword fragment was taken to a secret Soviet laboratory decades ago; a facility rumored to study the paranormal. Alister is going to try to confirm the facts of the story while I'm en route."

England

"The map on the knight's shield leads to a site that claims to have unearthed King Arthur's grave, a distinction also claimed by countless others. But this particular site meant something to a knight one thousand years ago, so it may mean something to me."

Nepal

"The key to restoring Excalibur is also the relic my mother prized most, innocently given to herby my father in Ghana to replace the pendant she lost there. Once again I am compelled to go into my own past."

Bolivia Redux

"It's time to return to Bolivia and finally learn what these ancient artifacts Can do. Amanda must want to activate the stone dais as well. Perhaps she knows its purpose, or only thinks she does."
