Takamoto
Shogo Takamoto is a Japanese mobster and black market antiquities dealer from Tomb Raider Legend. He has stolen a rare artefact Lara has been looking for for quite some time.


His upper body is completely covered by a tattoo. The last time Lara met him, he was trying to pass off forged relics from the Asuka period, and only just survived Lara.

from the official site

Shogo Takamoto is a Yakuza Kumicho (boss) who loves ancient weapons. In addition to being a powerful figure in the Japanese mob, he also became a ficture in the antiquities underground, frustrating collectors and adventuerers alike by mixing forgeries with authentic items. Despite his untrustworthy reputation, he continues to be a player due to his ability to ferret out what people really want and dangle it before them, such that their desires overpower their better judgement. His most recent encounter with Lara left a very bad taste in his mouth, but he has been unwilling to risk seeking revenge, because the likely failure of the attempt would mean an enormous loss of face.
