=Grapple Gun (Underworld)=
This state-of-the-art multi purpose Grapple Gun is used by [[Lara]] in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]]. It has a high-tension swing line with a tensile strength in excess of 1000 kg., this high grade, stainless steel grappling hook can be fired quickly and accurately with a lightning fast, auto-retract safety. Unlike the [[Tomb Raider: Legend]] grapple the grapple gun utilises a grapple hook rather than an electro magnetic pad. The cable is able to twist and contort to its surrounding such as in certain situations [[Lara]] must wrap the cable arround certain objects to continue her path or activate a mechinism.

Zip

Jokingswood:

[[Image:Zip.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Zip in TR Legend]]'''Zip''' is an old friend of Lara's. He is a computer specialist and helped her getting into the [[Von Croy]] Skyscraper in [[New York]] in [[Tomb Raider Chronicles]]. He returns in Tomb Raider [[Legend]], where he supports Lara from home, via her [[headset]]. He often gives her hints, making the game easier for the player, which was a major complaint by the more advanced gamers. He works with [[Alister Fletcher]]. In [[Tomb Raider Underworld]] he returns yet again, but here he has a hidden agenda.

He should not be confused with [[Bryce]], who plays a similar role in the [[Movies]].

==Tomb Raider Chronicles==
[[Image:Zip..jpg|thumb|150px|right|Zip in TR5]]

In [[Tomb Raider Chronicles]], Zip appears in the final three levels while Lara is infiltrating Von Croy's VCI headquarters. He provides hints and tips as to where Lara should go, he is mostly only heard via the headset Lara wears, but is seen a couple of times in the van outside the VCI building

 

==Tomb Raider Legend==

===Description from the official site===
Zip is the tech guy of Lara's team, responsible for providing technical and logistical support for Lara's endeavors worldwide - he's the guy in the van or the server room at [[Lara's Mansion]], and Lara's constant remote companion via radio [[headset]]. A wisecracking guy who's part ultra-techno-geek and part street savvy. He used to be over the top, but a few years in prison toned him down a notch and increased his resentment towards all things establishment. A former computer hacker, he works with Lara for the challenge and the thrill of it. He's personally loyal to Lara, and it really is the most fun he can have without getting arrested. <ref>http://www.tombraider.com/anniversary/ (Official Website)</ref>

Zip is also a culinary enthusiast and has worked in some of the best kitchens in Eastern Europe.{{Citation needed}}

==Tomb Raider Underworld==
[[Image:S3.jpg|thumb|175px|right|Zip firing at Lara]]
Zip returns in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]] along with [[Alistir]] as one of the characters.

{{spoil|
After assisting Lara in the [[Mediterranean]] and [[Thailand]], alongside [[Alister]], as usual, events in the [[Croft Manor]], in the third part of the game, will take a surprising turn.

Zip and Winston are seen trying to open a door inside the burning Manor. When Lara arrives at the scene, Zip deliberately shoots at Lara thinking she is the doppleganger, while telling Winston to get down. The butler tries to stop Zip, to which he replies "Get off me!" and continues to shoot at Lara.<ref>Gameplay video from CeBIT Eurasia http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=ISxeAk6jok8 http://video.yahoo.com/watch/3693316</ref> In return, she dives out of the way and pulls out her guns, aiming at Zip, to which she exclaims "Drop it Zip, or I'll drop you!".<ref>Tomb Raider Underworld Trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrPyMSEkPyY</ref>

The reason for Zips attitude is that he thinks Lara destroyed the manor on purpose, but what he didn't realize that the copy of Lara did it.}}

Eitr

2009-01-21T13:36:45Z

Jokingswood:

{{PAGENAME}} is the fluid of life in Nordic mythology, and is the origin of all living things. The first giant Ymir was conceived from eitr. The substance is supposed to be very poisonous and is produced by Jörmungandr (the Midgard Serpent) and other serpents. The word ''eitr'' exists in most North Germanic languages (all derived from the Old Norse language) in Icelandic ''eitur'', in Danish ''edder'', in Swedish ''etter''. Cognates also exist in Dutch ''ether'', in German ''Eiter'' (lit. pus), in Old Saxon ''ĕttar'', in Old English ''ăttor''. The meaning of the word is very broad: poisonous, evil, bad, angry, sinister, etc., and according to Wikipedia the word is used in common Scandinavian folklore as a synonym for snake poison [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eitr].

From Teutonic Mythology by Viktor Rydberg [http://www.vaidilute.com/books/norroena/rydberg-07.html];

''Eitr means the lowest degree of cold and poison at the same time ... tongues were made speechless with cold. In Saxo’s descriptions of the regions of misery in the lower world, it is only the torturing demons that speak. The dead are speechless, and suffer their agonies without uttering a sound; but, when the spirits of torture so desire, and force and egg them on, they can produce a howl.''

==[[Tomb Raider Underworld]]==

The [[Thralls]] are born from this fluid. It has a bright blue color, and is found in [[Helheim]]. During the climax of [[Underworld]], [[Amelia Croft]], the [[Doppelganger]] and [[Natla]] all take an unwanted bath in Eitr. 
If Eitr creates Thralls, then presumably Amelia - who already is a Thrall - would have been unharmed by the experience as Thralls are able to walk through the pools with reletive ease.

Xibalba

2009-01-21T13:34:11Z

Jokingswood:

'''Xibalba''' is a level in the game [[Underworld]]. In the game Lara needs to solve two puzzles involving the Mayan calendar to open the entrance to Xibalba. There [[Lara]] finds several trap rooms, the [[Thrall]]s and has her first contact with the [[Eitr]] fluid. In the depths of Xibalba lies a symbolic sanctuary representing the battle of [[Thor]] and [[Midgard|Jormungandr]], and Lara has to solve a puzzle to get [[Thor's Belt]].

==Xibalba in folklore==
[[Image:Xibalba.jpg|thumb|The lords of Xibalba from a Honduran manuscript[http://antropologicas.wordpress.com/2008/08/17/xibalba/] ]]

In the mythology of the Maya of Middle America, Xibalba (place of fright) was an underground realm of the dead. Caves and pools of water served as entry points to the realm. During the later part of its history, the Mayan empire was sometimes called the empire of Xibalba.

A story recorded in the Popol Vuh, the sacred book of the Maya, tells of a visit to Xibalba by the Hero Twins, Hunahpú and Xbalanqúe. Much earlier their father and uncle, also twins, had been summoned by the powerful lords of Xibalba. Disturbed by the brothers' ball playing on earth, the lords had invited them to the underworld for a ball game and then killed them.

Later Hunahpú and Xbalanqúe were also ordered to come to Xibalba. There they passed through a series of trials in various houses, and in each house they faced a test of their wits, strength, and courage. In the Dark House, for example, they had to endure darkness. In the Razor House they "tamed" the blades that were supposed to kill them and persuaded the cutting ants to bring them flowers, which they presented to the lords of Xibalba.

The Hero Twins eventually tricked and killed the lords of Xibalba. The people of the underworld surrendered to the twins, who sentenced them to pass their time making pottery and other humble tools rather than playing ball. The Hero Twins escaped from the underworld through their cleverness and determination, setting an example that the souls of kings and nobles could try to follow. 

(Taken from [[http://www.mythencyclopedia.com/Wa-Z/Xibalba.html this article]].

There is no connection between Norse and Mayan mythology that is known of to date.

Natla's Ship

2009-01-21T13:28:56Z

Jokingswood:

{{spoiler}}

'''Natla's cargo ship''' rests on the water of the [[Mediterranean Sea]]. After acquiring [[Thor's Gauntlet]], a mercenary knocks [[Lara]] cold and retreats back to the ship with the artifact. Lara follows him there and kills the other [[mercenaries]] coming after her. She heads to the cargo hold and finds [[Natla]], sealed in a cryogenic chamber. After confrontation, Natla and [[Amanda Evert]] escape, but not before Lara gets Thor's Gauntlet back.

The ship goes up in flames and sinks to the bottom of the Mediterranean just as Lara escapes. The ship is only explorable in the Mediterranean level and does not count as a 'vehicle' since it cannot be driven or used.

Later in the game, Zip said that the ship had a sister and was on the coast of [[Thailand]]. Lara vistis the sister ship to find Natla once again. This proves sucessful as she locates and releases Natla and followers her to the entrance of [[Helheim]]. It is unknow wheather the second ship sunk as well though Amanda appeaes later on in Helheim so this is unlikely.

Midgard

2009-01-21T13:19:25Z

Jokingswood:

In mythology, the Midgard is a huge serpent daughter of Loki and the main rival of Thor and is said to circle the globe on the sea floor. In the game it is actually a huge and ancient device of unknown origin built in [[Helheim]] to hit the atlantic fault, the weakest part of the earths crust. as the atlantic fualt circles the earth on the sea floor this is most likely how the myth came about. According to [[Amanda Evert|Amanda]], the device has the power to tear the world apart. In the final level, [[Natla]] activates the device, but Lara is able to destabilize it, causing it to shake. Natla then attempts to restabilize it, but is prevented as Lara throws [[Thor's Hammer]] at her, causing her to fall into the void pit, problably dead(though judging on how natla continually comes back this may not be the case as her death was not confirmed). The machine is then destroyed as the void pool starts to flood the cave. Both Lara and Amanda are able to escape from there, using the [[Stone Dais]] located near of there.

The '''Kraken''' is a mythical creature found in Norse legends. It appears in[[Tomb Raider Underworld]] and serves as a blockaid, blocking [[Lara]]'s path in the [[Mediterranean]] level.The creature is invincible using conventional methods To kill it Lara must activate the various cog mechinisms arround the room to release the spiked chandaller-like structure above the creature. It is revealed by Lara that the Kraken is blind and can only hurt Lara when in one of the two spots it can attck with its tenticles, otherwise the Kraken is harmless and serves more of a puzzle than a boss in its self.

Jokingswood:

'''Avalon''' (probably from the Celtic word abal: apple) is a legendary island featured in the Arthurian legend. It mentioned in [[Tomb Raider Legend]], in which [[Lara]] is searching the pieces of the legendary King Arthur's sword, [[Excalibur]], to discover what happened to her mother.

Thor's Belt

2009-01-20T22:35:23Z

Jokingswood:

The '''Thor's Belt''' (also called '''Megingjord''') is another artifact sought after by Lara in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]].

In Mythology,the belt doubles Thor's already mighty strenght,in the game it actually powers the two gauntlets.

Following her father's map,Lara travels to southern Mexico to find the Belt,there she discovers a secret passage to the Mayan underworld, Xibalba where the belt is carefully hidden and protected by the dead, or otherwise known as [[Thrall]]s.

Like the other gauntlets, most of the artifact falls apart when [[Lara]] touches it, leaving only the original piece intact, which Lara places on her own belt buckle, imediatly activating it and powering the gauntlets.

Thor's Gauntlets

2009-01-20T22:22:26Z

Jokingswood:

{{spoiler}}
'''Thor's Gauntlets''' are one of the artifacts collected by Lara in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]]. She comes across the first one in the [[Mediterranean]] level, after fighting the [[Kraken]].

Legend has it that [[Thor]] needed the gauntlet, along with a [[Thor's Belt|mythical belt]] to wield his hammer [[Mjolnir]].<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thor#Mjolnir</ref> When she first finds the gauntlet, Lara notices that it looks a bit like an ordinary glove. However after she touches it, the glove falls apart, leaving only a small piece intact.<ref>Tomb Raider Underworld Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ5ncY8oHdI</ref>

The first gauntlet is found by Lara in Niflheim,where it is stolen by a mercenary but shortly after recovered,the second gauntlet was originally in Thailand,but was recovered by Richard Croft and taken safely to a secret room in the Croft manor.

When activated,the glove adquires the exact shape of the person's hand,making it impossible for anyone else to use it.Natla claims that even killing the person who activate it won't unbind the artifact.

However in the game,the gauntlets seem to work more as insulated gloves to the hammer's powers,rather than sustainig its weight,as Lara can easly host it in her backpack,proving it is not so heavy.

Lara uses them several times in the game to move heavy objects,some of the entrances and exits of temples Lara visits can only be moved with the gauntlets.

==Powers==
The guantlets allow the wearer to wield Mjolnir, thor's hammer. without them it would be rendered usless as its impossible to use otherwise.The gauntlets also bestow appearingly enhanced strength, though in reality the gauntlets react with a certain type of rock making the mass of the rock incredibly less, thus enableing the wearer to move what appears to be collosal amounts of weight. When the guantlets react with the rock, they and the rock give of a blue glow and a smooth humming noise.

Amanda Evert

2009-01-20T21:37:58Z

Jokingswood:

[[Image:Amandaunderworld2.jpg|thumb|151px|right|Amanda, gothic-looked female]]'''Amanda Evert''' was once a friend of Lara's. She plays an important role in [[Tomb Raider Legend]] and [[Tomb Raider Underworld]].

Amanda and Lara were once exploring a ruined temple together, when they were attacked by a monster. Amanda activated a door-mechanism, which caused the monster to disappear, but also started the collapse of the building. A huge rock buried Amanda's foot and she could not free herself. Lara managed to stop the door from closing for some, but when Amanda couldn't free herself and the water rose over her head, Lara lost her strength and had to let go. Amanda presumably drowned, while Lara got away.

However, as Lara finds out in [[Kazakhstan]], Amanda survived in the tomb in Peru, with the help of the [[Unknown Entity]]. Amanda returns into Lara's life as a formidable adversary determined to harness the power of [[Excalibur]] for herself. It is later revealed that Amanda indirectly caused the death of Lara's mother.

==Unlockable Outfits==
By beating the [[Ghana - Pursuing James Rutland |Ghana]] and [[Kazakhstan - Project Carbonek|Kasakhstan]] [[Time Trial]]s two special Outfits, the [[Amanda Outfit]] and the [[Amanda, Winter]] Outfit, are unlocked. You can replay levels as Amanda this way. This explains, why Amanda can be seen in images, wearing part of Lara's gear. In this case it is just another Outfit for Lara and will speak with her regular voice, not with Amanda's.

==From the official site==
On the outside, Amanda Evert was a graduate student of social anthropology; on the inside, she was an intense chronicler of the metaphysical. She believed wholeheartedly that the common notion of reality is nothing but a thin, drab layer pulled over the infinite truth of the soul. She studied every religious and mystical system in the world, past and present, and while still at university was already something of an expert on theology and mysticism. She had a pet theory that fragments of a single, long forgotten mystical belief system exist within the rites and rituals of shamanism, witchcraft and many religions. Her dream was to rediscover this supreme knowledge from the past and teach it to people so they could gain spiritual enlightenment. At the time it seemed more like a youthful dalliance than a true obsession; something Lara considered harmless. She was undoubtedly comfortable with exploring beyond the boundaries of scientific inquiry, but she was also a brilliant researcher who was still in touch with the modern world. She was young, a bit bookish, not too self-confident, and a bit of a hippy. Her relationship with Lara is typified by playful philosophical banter; they disagreed, but they crossed intellectual swords without becoming exasperated or angry at the others' firm viewpoint.

Then one day in [[Peru]], while excavating a tomb Lara believed contained the last queen of [[Tiwanaku]], her team of graduate students breeched a new room and all hell broke loose. Lara was the only one to return to the surface, where the team's structural engineer, [[Anaya Imanu]], listened in horror to Lara's story of how a malevolent entity of some kind slaughtered everyone in the tomb, except for Lara and Amanda. But as the two tried to escape, Amanda set off a trap that sealed the room, brought down the roof, and drowned Amanda.<ref>http://www.tombraider.com/anniversary/ (Official Website)</ref>

==Tomb Raider Underworld==
[[Image:Amandaunderworld2.jpg|thumb|151px|right|Amanda in Underworld]]

Amanda makes a return in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]], working with [[Jacqueline Natla]], pursuing Lara who is trying to unite the pieces of Thor's hammer <ref>The Official Xbox magazine, September 08</ref>. In the end, Amanda helps Lara save the world by holding back Thralls with her [[Wraith Stone]] from [[Tomb Raider Legend]].

While capturing Natla from her mortal prison that Lara has left her in the end of [[Tomb Raider Anniversary]], only to imprison her once again. [[Natla]], in the beginning had Amanda interested enough in Avalon to start searching for the pieces of [[Excalibur]], and take down Lara in the process. Failing to do so in [[Tomb Raider Legend]], she found another way to get in.

Following Lara to the Mediterranean Sea, Amanda sends a team of mercenaries after Lara who steal Thor's Gauntlet right after Lara uncovered it. Setting an explosive in the temple, the mercenary leader tells Lara that Amanda sends her regards before detonating it, this being Amanda's way of revenge against Lara - the same way Amanda was trapped in the Peruvian temple in Tomb Raider Legend.

Lara finds Amanda with Natla and after getting answers from the Atlantean queen, Lara escapes the ship and fires at Amanda, scoring a gash along her cheek from the bullet. Amanda threw the gauntlet into the water as it's no use to her now, but Lara retrieved it in time.

During Lara's adventure in Thailand, Amanda has Natla create her a [[Atlantean Lara Copy|doppelgänger]], and sends it to Lara's manor in England to retrieve her [[Wraith Stone]]. Doing so, the doppelgänger reaches the manor just as Lara arrives and does some excavating in the Croft catacombs. Above ground, the deadly facsimile of Lara shoots [[Zip]] in the leg before blowing open the vault and stealing the stone, sending Croft Manor to flames. Finding Lara, the doppelgänger shoots [[Alister Fletcher|Alister]] before fighting Lara, causing her to waste time so she couldn't save him.

The next time we see Amanda is in the Andaman Sea in Thailand on her second ship, the Tisiphone, the sister to the first. Lara climbs on board having recovered all four artifacts - Thor's two gauntlets, his belt, and his hammer, Mjolnir - and confronts Natla. Learning that only the Atlantean can open the doors to Helheim, Lara is about to smash the glass of the prison when Amanda and the doppelgänger come in. Amanda and Lara are poised to fight, but Lara's evil lookalike intervenes and throws Amanda over the railing into the depths below. On her way down, Amanda hits her head hard and tumbles the rest of the way - we'd presume she was dead.

In the Arctic Circle, Amanda follows Natla into Helheim just as Lara confronted her mother and listened in on their conversation. Hearing what Natla tells Lara, she becomes frustrated that she was so foolish as to let Natla use her for her own gain. As Natla leaves to raise the Midgard Serpent, the doppelgänger is about to kill Lara when Amanda uses the powers of the Wraith Stone to hurl the clone into Jormungandr's poison, killing it. Telling Lara that as much as she wanted to let the clone kill her, the Midgard Serpent will tear the world apart, and only Mjolnir can stop it. Despite Amanda's wanting to get to Avalon/Helheim, destroying the world was not her plan. All she wanted was knowledge.

As Lara disables the Midgard Serpent, Amanda holds off the endless wave of thralls. Falling off a five foot high ledge and landing on her leg, Amanda hurts it bad enough to have to limp. She continues to hold off thralls until Natla throws a fireball at her, the explosion sending Amanda flying forward. Landing hard, Amanda is knocked unconscious. After Lara kills Natla and destroys the machine, she helps Amanda up who tries to unblock the corridor, but the Wraith Stone was out of juice, just like in Bolivia in Tomb Raider Legend.

Making a remark that now the two of them were going to die in Helheim like Amelia, Lara goes to punch Amanda but stops when she's struck with sudden realization. Finding the stone dais and the Excalibur sword stuck inside, Lara thought that her mother must have tried to use it, but didn't know how. Holding a section of the dais in place, Lara trusts Amanda to pull the sword out and grab Lara's hand in time to send them to safety. Amanda has mixed emotions and briefly thinks about leaving Lara there to exact her revenge, but pulls the sword out and grabs Lara's hand.

The two land in Nepal, where Amelia first pulled out the sword. Lara noticed that Amanda's stone was flaming with power, and asked if killing her would make them even. Amanda considered Lara's words before allowing the stone to dissipate and leaving the temple. It's currently unknown if Lara and Amanda will become friends again, or if this is the last we see of Amanda, if she chooses to drop out of Lara's life for good.

Excalibur

2009-01-20T21:34:28Z

Jokingswood:

[[Image:excalibur.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Completed Excalibur on the left, and the pieces on the right.]]'''Excalibur''' is a legendary sword. There are primarily two origins for the sword. The first is that Arthur pulled the sword from a stone, an act which prophecy stated could only be performed by the rightful king of England. The second is that Arthur received the sword from The Lady of the Lake, who presented it as Excalibur "that is to say as to Cut-Steel" ('''ref? This quote doesn't make sense.''') According to the second legend, as he lay dying, King Arthur requested that one of his trusted knights, Sir Bedivere, throw the sword into the lake. After some initial hesitation, he did so, and the lake re-claimed the sword. The sword was said to be capable of blinding Arthur's enemies, and its scabbard would make its wearer invulnerable to blood loss. ('''ref?''')

==[[Tomb Raider Legend]]==

In the game, the sword has been split into five pieces which were scattered across the world:

* ''1st Piece'' - [[Tokyo]], Japan
* ''2nd Piece'' - [[Ghana]]
* ''3rd Piece'' - [[Kazakhstan]]
* ''4th Piece'' - [[Cornwall]], England
* ''Ghalali Key'' - [[Nepal]]

The [[Ghalali Key]] is needed to piece together the sword that appears in [[Tomb Raider Legend]]. The sword is a key to opening two portals, located at [[Nepal]] and Tiwanaku, which lead to a mysterious foreign dimension called [[Avalon]]. If the sword is pulled out while connected to the portal, the portal will explode, as Lara discovered in Nepal. Each individual piece (except the Ghalali Key) can give the bearer the powers of levitation as well as the ability to produce concentrations of energy, which can be focused and used as a weapon. The pieces can also give the powers of regeneration, thus replenishing the bearer's health. When the sword is pieced together, it can produce balls of energy from its tip, when it is swung. These balls of energy fly with high velocity and are very dangerous. When an enemy is struck by the sword or the balls of energy, they are immediately killed.

In the ending of [[Tomb Raider Underworld]], [[Lara]] once again finds Excalibur. She along with [[Amanda]] use it with the [[Stone Dias]]es to return to the same site where Lara's mother accidently enters [[Helheim]] or [[Avalon]].

In the game, the sword has been split into five pieces which were scattered across the world:

* ''1st Piece'' - [[Tokyo]], Japan
* ''2nd Piece'' - [[Ghana]]
* ''3rd Piece'' - [[Kazakhstan]]
* ''4th Piece'' - [[Cornwall]], England
* ''Ghalali Key'' - [[Nepal]]

The [[Ghalali Key]] is needed to piece together the sword that appears in [[Tomb Raider Legend]]. The sword is a key to opening two portals, located at [[Nepal]] and Tiwanaku, which lead to a mysterious foreign dimension called [[Avalon]]. If the sword is pulled out while connected to the portal, the portal will explode, as Lara discovered in Nepal. Each individual piece (except the Ghalali Key) can give the bearer the powers of levitation as well as the ability to produce concentrations of energy, which can be focused and used as a weapon. The pieces can also give the powers of regeneration, thus replenishing the bearer's health. When the sword is pieced together, it can produce balls of energy from its tip, when it is swung. These balls of energy fly with high velocity and are very dangerous. When an enemy is struck by the sword or the balls of energy, they are immediately killed.

In the ending of [[Tomb Raider Underworld]], [[Lara]] once again finds Excalibur. She along with [[Amanda]] use it with the [[Stone Dias]]es to return to the same site where Lara's mother accidently enters [[Helhiem]] or [[Avalon]].

Jokingswood:

[[Image:Midasgoldenlara.jpg|thumb|140px|right|Golden Lara]]'''Midas' Golden Lara''' can be found in [[Tomb Raider]] and [[Tomb Raider Anniversary]]. Legend has it that everything [[King Midas]] touches with his hands is turn to gold; even if it is Lara. In the Greece level of [[Tomb Raider]] and [[Tomb Raider Anniversary]] a huge statue of King Midas can be found. A puzzle must be solved with this statue as when lara places [[Lead Bar]]s on the hands of the statue, the bar turns to a [[Gold Bar]]. As expected, when lara stands on the hands she is instantly killed while quickly turning into a gold statue of herself.

The '''Rotating Spiked Trap''' appears in [[Tomb Raider Legend]] in the level [[Bolivia - Tiwanaku]] and [[Tomb Raider Underworld]] in the [[Jan Mayen Island]] level.

When Lara first encounters this trap, it seems there is nothing there other than a simple walkway, but when nearing the trap, the rock slides open up, revealing rotating spikes. Lara can first kick the rocks available there in order to see what happens. In the Jan Mayen Island level of Underworld the rotating spikes trap is seen before hand though misleads the player into the fact that there are more sets of the spiked cylinders to avoid. The paly must swing on a horizontal pole then stand on top, from this position Lara can make it over.

Active Sonar Map

Jokingswood:

{{edit}}
{{more}}

A revolutionary new tool that emits a sonar ping to create a 3D image of Lara's surroundings, perfect for uncovering hidden items and locations. This tool is first usable in [[Tomb Raider Underworld]]. To access it the player must access [[Lara]]'s [[PDA]] sytem. Then they must select the sonar. this then triggers the sonar ping then shortly after a three dimensional image is seen of the area the ping has traveled to. The sonar cannot create an image of somehing which is behind something else, for example if the player is standing behind a pillar in a reletivly empty room and then activates the sonar, a 3D image of the room in front of the pillar would not be created. This can easily be over come by moveing to a more accessable spot. After the sonar is activated the 3D image of the surroundings stay a part of the image regardless to how many times you use it, only adding more to the image. This only stays in effect when the player is in the same level, once you have moved to a seperate level the image will be erased and a new one must be created.

Medipacks

2009-01-20T13:02:57Z

Jokingswood:

{{disambig}}
The '''medipacks''' are [[first aid items]] used to heal [[Lara]] during her adventure. In most casses these item prove as very helpful and sometimes nessicary.

In the [[Classic]] Games and [[The Angel of Darkness]], they come in two different sizes:

* [[Small Medipack]]
* [[Large Medipack]]

In [[Tomb Raider Legend]] and onwards there are only one kind of medipack. These kind of medipacks would fully heal [[Lara's]] health regardless of damage taken before use. In [[Tomb Raider Underworld]] the medipacks appearance would change depending the the level being played. These appearances varied between a red potion in a gold coloured goblet or a small brown bag. The medipacks still give [[Lara]] full health no matter what the health looked like.
