Tony

Tony was a researcher from the research and mining company RX Tech working for Dr. Mark Willard. He was the first evil adversary Lara faced in Tomb Raider III.

Meeting with Lara
Tony was sent with two more researchers Randy and Rory to find a meteorite artifact called the Infada Stone in India.

The researcher went insane either by Jungle Fever or from being stuck in the dangerous jungle for too long. Lara finds their campsite hearing a muffled radio of his former employer Dr. Willard trying to contact him in frustration. She also hears Tony cheering and finds him coming out of his tent preparing to escape, she asks him about the location of the Infada stone in the strange temple.

The crazed scientist tells her saying that Randy and Rory are still in the temple probably dead and he is leaving this place once and for all.

He goes on saying that Lara would probably die there too and with a hysterical laugh he runs away, leaving her alone in the jungle.

Lara tracks him down to the River Ganges and tries to shoot him but the insane researcher uses his new powers to break away the pillars above Lara nearly crushing her and escapes on a raft.

Lara catches up with him using one of the researchers' Quad Bikes and finds him in the dark and dangerous Caves of Kaliya.

She finds Tony is in a cavern who laughs and makes the place more dangerous with lethal water. He hurls fireballs at Lara who dodges them and after she shoots him, he collapses and explodes in an eerie orange light leaving the Infada Stone behind for her to obtain.
