Lara Croft is a fictional character and the protagonist of Eidos Interactive’s (now Square Enix Europe) Tomb Raider video game series. Created by Toby Gard during his employment at Core Design, the character has also appeared in comic books, novels, a series of animated short films, and feature films. Lara Croft has been licensed for third-party promotion, including television and print advertisements, music-related appearances,
and as a spokesmodel. Promotion of the character includes a brand of apparel and accessories, action figures, and model portrayals. Lara Croft is presented as a beautiful, intelligent, athletic and somewhat reckless English archaeologist-adventurer who ventures into ancient, hazardous tombs and ruins.
Lara is depicted as an athletic woman of English descent, who has brown eyes and frequently keeps her long brown hair in a plait or ponytail. The character’s classic costume is a turquoise sleeveless Bodysuit, light brown shorts, calf-high boots, long white socks, fingerless gloves, a backpack, a utility belt with holsters on either side and two pistols, an outfit appearing in nearly every Tomb Raider game to date. In the later
games, she wears a crop top. Variations on this theme, such as camouflage pants and black or light brown shirts, have appeared in some games and she has worn a wet suit for a watery environment or trousers and a jacket for a colder area.
