Who is Lara Croft: Tomb Raider

Lara Croft was born to Lord Richard Croft and Amelia Croft and enjoyed a life of luxury and wealth, eventually inheriting Croft Estates and the title Countess of Abbingdon. Lara’s confident, independent, and headstrong personality would feed her adventurous nature, but it wasn’t until in a plane crash in the Himalayas, in which her mother died, that the young Lara had to put her abilities to the test. A ten day journey to Kathmandu with no supplies was her first real test and rescue. Lara’s knowledge of archaeology came from her father, who was an archaeologist himself, and she would accompany him all over the world uncovering treasures from the past. After her father’s mysterious death, Lara used her family resources the scour the world in search of lost treasures – often motivated by the hope that she will learn the truth about her parents' deaths.
