Amanda Evert

[[Image:Amanda.jpg|thumb|151px|right|Amanda]]'''Amanda Evert''' is a friend of Lara's. She's mentioned in [[Tomb Raider Legend]].

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 collaps of the building. A huge rock burried 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 probably drowned, while Lara got away.

When you've finished [[Tomb Raider Legend]], you will be able to play again as Amanda. This explains, why in some images Amanda is wearing part of Lara's gear.

==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.

== Amanda Evert: New enemy of Ms. Croft ==
It appears that Amanda survived in the tomb in Peru long ago even though Lara thought her dead.
She returns to surprise Lara as they both search for the same artifact.
Amanda Evert is Lara Croft's new female foe.

Winston Smith

[[Image:Winston.jpg|thumb|right|113px|Winston]] '''Winston''' is Lara's [[Butler]] in the games.

It seems that the name '''Jeeves''' has been given to him by the fans, while the creators at [[Core Design]] decided to call him Winston.

But this might also be wrong. I could not find a reliable source telling me how exactly he came to the name ''Jeeves''. <font color="#FF0000">If you know something, please use the discussion page.</font>

You can meet him in the [[Trainings Level|Trainings Levels]] in Tomb Raider 1 to 3 ([[Lara's Home]]) and in the [[Golden Mask]] level [[Nightmare in Vegas]].<br clear="all">

<h3>Locking Winston in the Fridge</h3>
A fun game that was very popular among the fans was locking Winston in the fridge. In Lara's Home Level you have to run into the kitchen. Open the fridge by using the button. Get inside the fridge and wait for Winston to appear. Then quickly run out leaving him and shut the door again.

== Tomb Raider Legend ==

It look as though the Butler in Tomb Raider: Legend is Winston except he is much taller and looks far younger and less fragile. Luckily, he shouldn't be following you around too!

Squeezing Walls

TKay18: Squeezing walls are in a tomb in Bolivia

== '''Squeezing Walls''' ==

Not much is known about the squeezing walls in Tomb Raider Legend but in Bolivia she encounters two sets of squeezing walls in the tomb.

She can easily run past the first set but must use a cage for the second set to stop them closing in on her.
