| ~ The Scavenger |
Scavenger is a minor antagonist in the 2013 video game Tomb Raider.
The Scavenger was voiced by James Patrick Stuart.
History[]
At an unknown time, the Scavenger was stranded on Yamatai Island off the coast of Japan. He hid from Father Mathias and the Solarii Brotherhood who resided on the island. Unlike them, the Scavenger had no technology and was forced to live a very primitive life. He took shelter in a cave hidden in the island's cove, this becoming his new home. Eventually, the Scavenger started capturing anyone who visited Yamatai Island and wasn't accepted by Father Mathias. He wrapped them in cocoons before torturing them. After their torture ended, the Scavenger killed them and tossed their corpses into a nearby ocean.
Years later, young archaeologist Lara Croft embarked on her first expedition. She joined a group of other researchers on their ship the Endurance. They sailed to Japan in hopes of uncovering the lost kingdom of Yamatai. During the travel, the Endurance was caught in a violent storm, and the entire crew was stranded on Yamatai Island. Lara was separated from the rest of the group. Before Lara had a chance to look for anyone, she was suddenly knocked out by the Scavenger.
Lara awoke in the Scavenger's cave, trapped in a cocoon while hanging above the ground. She swung towards a nearby torch, which burned the cocoon and freed Lara, who ended up falling to ground. Her body was in immense pain, but she was still able to stand. After regaining the ability to move, she explored the cave where she was situated. There were corpses of humans who were slaughtered. A moment later, Lara encountered the Scavenger. He claimed that he was trying to help her, but after examining the corpses, she realized that his idea of "help" was to kill her. She ran away from him and managed to escape the cave. The Scavenger tried to follow her but he was crushed by falling boulders that blocked the entrance to his cave.
After witnessing the Scavenger's death, Lara started to explore Yamatai Island.
