Chase Carver
His first appearance is in the third Tomb Raider Comic.
He is a treasure hunter, just like Lara Croft. He and Lara were a couple once. But she'd like to think that's a long time ago. He has played with Lara and with her money.
The two had been in Monaco together, to have some fun and then set out to find a sunken Galleon. In the evening Chase spent some time in the Casino, even after Lara had gone to bed. The next morning he did not appear at the appointed time.
Lara was furious and guessed that another woman was the reason for it. A little later than thought she arrived at the sunken ship and dived down alone. She knew of a secret chamber under the main hold of the ship, but when finding it a bad surprise awaited her. The treasure was gone and she found Chase's calling card. She found him in the Casino with his new girl Celeste. Chase eventually helped Lara find the Medusa Mask and defeat Compton.
