Contents
The Last Revelation
He is introduced as one of Lara's good friends residing in Alexandria. When coming there, looking for a way to recapture Seth, Jean-Yves proves to be a big help. She can visit him several times in his study to ask for help with her adventure. He can give her quite a bit of useful information.
Jean-Yves is kidnapped by Von Croy in the end of the Alexandria Section and later saved by Lara in the beginning of the level Citadel.
Tomb Raider Chronicles
Jean-Yves returns in Tomb Raider Chronicles, bit under a new name and appearance. Now he is Charles Kane - one of Lara's close friends showing up for her Memorial Service. He also had a small role in the story telling about Lara's search of the Spear of Destiny.
Name Controversy and the Real Jean-Yves
In 2001 the real-life French archaeologist Jean-Yves Empereur - who just like the fictional Jean-Yves performed digs in Alexandria, searching for the Lighthouse of Alexandria - contacted the publisher Eidos, because he felt that his name was used without his consent. Even though Eidos claimed that this was coincidental, they apologized and stopped using the name Jean-Yeas[1], changing the character's name to Charles Kane for the upcoming Tomb Raider Chronicles.
