Lara Croft

When the time came for Lara to attend university, she decided that she wanted to earn her own way and would apply to the University College London (UCL). This decision required her to pay her tuition and rent by working multiple jobs. Although this was a tougher choice, it helped Lara become more grounded, down-to-earth, and level-headed than she might otherwise have been.

Lara's birth was difficult and both of her parents worried that they might lose her before she was born. However, Lara was ultimately delivered successfully, much to her parents' relief. Lara's early years were spent in the company of her doting parents. Her mother, who was an artist, worked from home and spent much of her time with her daughter, playing with her and giving her piano lessons. Lady Croft died in a plane crash when Lara was very young. Her death inspired Lord Croft's obsession with finding the key to immortality, which in turn resulted in him becoming somewhat neglectful of Lara. Lara began to act out in order to get attention, even locking the family butler Winston in the large walk-in freezer. One of Lara's earliest memories was her fifth birthday, when her father, Winston, and the rest of the staff put a lot of preparation into a treasure hunt to keep her entertained. Lara found solace in books, which fueled a lust for adventure. Though her father would occasionally take her along on his expeditions, he was often too busy to pay attention to his daughter. On one such trip, Lara was working on a small patch late one night, and uncovered a jade trinket.
