The Damned
The Damned were once a group of people who signed up to participate in experiments being conducted by Sophia Leigh. The aim of the experiments was to immortalise the subject. However, they failed, and the subjects were presumed dead. As a result, they were dumped into the sub terranial areas of London. Their faces disfigured and their lives ruined, the Damned attempted to kill themselves. However, it was only here that they discovered the full extent of the experiments, for they were unable to die. So they are forced to exist in the depths of London.
In the Level Aldwych Lara will encounter two types. Both of them have a bat with which they will hit Lara. One of them has a burning bat, after Lara has been hit with it a couple of times, she will catch fire meaning they can be quickly fatal if there is not water around. In the following level, however, The Damned will become allies, much like the monks from Tomb Raider II. However, firing upon one of them changes this instantly.
