Story
When Lara was sixteen years old, she accompanied the archaeologist Werner Von Croy on his journey to Cambodia(1984).Von Croy taught her the basic things about archaeology. Going with him was indeed a valuable experience for Lara-it was with him that she acquired the basic tomb raiding skills. However, Von Croy was not a very honest man and he got trapped in a temple because of his greed for fame and money. Lara tried to save him, but she had to leave the tomb, in order to save her own life.
............................................................
In the present day, Lara is hired to discover a new tomb in Egypt. She discovers Tomb of Seth, where she takes the Amulet of Horus from a sarcophagus. That's a terrible mistake. Seth was an evil god, imprisoned in the tomb by his brother Horus and now he is set free. Lara accidentally activates a terrible prophecy. Jean-Yves ,an old friend of her, tells her about the prophecy of Seth:
"I am the shadow across the sun; I am the bringer of plagues. My wrath will consume all lands and shall be ceaseless."
Only Lara can set things back to normal again. Fortunately the person who unleashed Seth is the one that can imprison him again in his tomb, through a special ceremony. Lara has to go to tomb of Semerkhet in Karnak, in order to put Seth back in his sarcophagus.
Werner Von Croy

Lara's former mentor but also a ruthless rival. He first met Lara after an archaeological lecture of his at her school, where he was impressed by the clever questions of the 16-year-old teenager, that showed a bright interest in archaeology. Although convincing her parents was difficult, they eventually gave in and let her join Von Croy on his expedition to a Cambodian Temple, where the Iris artifact was located. When they found the artifact, they had their first argument, which had very bad consequences on their relationship. Lara wanted Von Croy to show some respect to the inscriptions' warnings, whereas he, being greedy and hungry for fame, wanted to get to the artifact straight away. He got his leg trapped somewhere when he was about to grab the Iris and he got locked in the temple. Lara attempted a rescue but she had to flee to save her own life. However, Von Croy managed to escape from the temple together with the Iris,(maybe that large knife he had with him helped him out?)which he put in his headquarters. He wanted to take revenge from the girl that had betrayed him. Lara stole the Iris and the hatred between the two grew stronger. Later on, he was possessed by Seth and tried to kill Lara, but when Seth's spirit abandoned him, he tried, unsuccessfully, to save her from the temple of Horus. And then ,he devoted the rest of his life trying to find her in the pyramids of Egypt.

He's a good friend of Lara's and an archaeologist with a vast knowledge on Egyptian mythology. He's a quite fat French guy, which I have the suspicion that has some hidden love interest on Lara. To stop gossiping and to get on with the story, he was the one to realize that Lara had activated a terrible prophecy by removing the amulet of Horus from the sarcophagus. He pointed her into the right direction, telling her that she had to retrieve all the pieces of the Horus' armor and return them before Von Croy could make his evil plans come true. He never stopped giving her valuable advice. He was later kidnapped by Von Croy, but Lara managed to save him.
