-History- The daughter of Lord Henshingly Croft, Lara Amelia Croft was born on Valentine's Day in 1968 and was brought up in the secure world of aristocracy — wanting for nothing, she was surrounded by servants, social events, and high society. From age 3 to 11 Lara was tutored privately, and then from age 11 to 16 she attended Wimbledon High School for Girls. From 16 to 21 she attended Gordonstoun boarding school in Scotland, where she discovered her love for climbing, water sports, horse back riding and archery. Lara then at 21 years of age attended a Swiss Finishing school. After attending school at the age of 21, Lara's marriage into wealth seemed assured, but on her way home from a skiing trip, her chartered plane had crashed deep within the heart of the Himalayas. The only survivor, Lara learned how to depend on her own wits to stay alive in the hostile conditions, conditions that were literally a world away from her sheltered upbringing. Two weeks later, when she walked into the village of Tokakeriby, her experience had left a profound effect on her. Unable to stand the claustrophobic, suffocating atmosphere of upper-class British society, she realized that she was only truly alive when she was traveling alone. Over the 7 following years, she acquired an intimate knowledge of ancient civilizations across the globe. Her family disowned their prodigal daughter, and she turned to becoming a writer to help fund her trips. Famed for discovering several ancient sites of profound archaeological interest, Lara made a name for herself by publishing travel books and detailed journals of her adventuring exploits.
