She has also had a custom-built assault course constructed in the grounds for training purposes. At one time she saw little use in it but now realises that, if nothing else, it is at least handy for storing all the artifacts she has acquired on her travels. While in England, Lara lives in a mansion in Surrey which she inherited many years ago. Lara's parents though, having sported hopes of her marrying the Earl of Farringdon, were less than convinced about this chosen lifestyle and ceased to associate with their daughter - even terminating her monthly allowance. Unable to stand the suffocating atmosphere of upper-class British society any longer, she realised she was only truly alive when she was travelling alone.ĭespite this drastic life change, Lara still retains the essence of her upbringing - most notably with her polite, upper-class accent. Two weeks later, when she walked into a mountain village, her experiences had had a profound effect on her. On her return trip however, the plane crashed deep within the mountains and Lara was the only survivor. Later, at her Swiss finishing school, she took to the art of extreme skiing and spent a holiday in the Himalayas searching for more challenging terrain. But this all started to change when she went to the renowned school of Gordonstoun and found the mountains of Scotland. The daughter of Lord Henshingly Croft, Lara was brought up in the secure world of aristocracy - surrounded by tennis, butlers and corgis.

Also took up shooting as an extra-curricular activity but was instantly banned for showing "too keen an interest'. Discovered rock climbing while at Gordonstoun and used to set off into the hills alone during netball practice. Original Lara Croft Biography by Core Design
