The Legless Mutant is one of the bosses in Tomb Raider and it makes a return in Tomb Raider: Anniversary. It is fought at the beginning of the last level in each game.

Description

This is the final outcome of Natla's genetic engineering experiments. It is born from a large egg atop a platform at the top of the enormous main chamber of the Atlantean Pyramid. It hatched after Natla placed the Scion in its altar in the throne room facing the Legless Mutant.

The creature is vaguely reminiscent of an enormous slug, but with two arms and a small head atop its body. It moves by dragging itself along, making it slow and cumbersome. However, this is more than made up for by its strength and stamina. It is easily capable of killing Lara by grabbing her and smashing her into the floor, or by pushing her off the side of the ledge resulting in a fall down the entire main chamber to a magma pit at the bottom. Lara eventually defeats the creature by simple gunfire and it explodes, scattering its body parts throughout the chamber.

Anniversary Appearence

The mutant remains the same body wise. Extra featurs involve the ability to charge at Lara, a result of when it's rage counter is full from gunfire that Lara gives off. It can hang off the platform should it stumble over the edge. It may also grab and eat Lara whole, she can escape the stomach via excessive gunfire. To defeat it Lara must destroy its left hand and enrage it so that it tumbles over the edge. As it hangs by one hand, gunfire must be produced so that it looses it's grip and falls into the magma pit below.
