Lara Croft's aunt was a wealthy British aristocrat related to Lara Croft.
Biography[]
When Henshingly Croft and Lady Croft were concerned of their daughter's activities, they considered to send of Lara with her aunt, a local school teacher, to be educated about European history. Not only would she broaden her horizons via travel, but she would surely benefit from a first-hand experience of Europe's main sites of historical interest. Lara however, did not want to spend time with her stuffy aunt, and came up with a plan to join Werner Von Croy's expedition in Cambodia[1].
She passed the Croft Manor down to her niece Lara Croft.[2]
Lara has also been introduced to the sounds of Nine inch Nails by her Aunty, which she now considers "good easy listening". Her aunt owned a vicious little corgi who has bitten her on several occasions.[3]
