Classic Tomb Raider fan, although you might encounter something from Crystal Dynamics here and there too. Other fandoms include Marvel Cinematic Universe, Steven Universe, Avatar: The Last Airbender and many others. Occasionally I might write or draw.
Prime Video announced today that it has ordered a Tomb Raider series with Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag) set as writer and executive producer. The project comes as part of a deal between Crystal Dynamics and Amazon MGM Studios, originating through dj2’s first-look deal with the studio, to develop additional Tomb Raider stories in streaming and film.
"If I could tell my teenage self that this was happening, I think she’d explode. Tomb Raider has been a huge part of my life and I feel incredibly privileged to be bringing it to television with such passionate collaborators. Lara means a lot to me, as she does to many, and I can’t wait to go on this adventure. Bats ‘n all," said Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
"I’m so happy to announce that we have ordered the epic, globetrotting series Tomb Raider from the incredibly gifted Emmy-award winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge and the team at Crystal Dynamics," said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios. "Fans and newcomers can look forward to exhilarating adventures that honor the legacy of this iconic character."
"Amazon Studios and Amazon Games are incredible collaborators with a massive reach across the globe enabling us to expand our Tomb Raider franchise with multiple new adventures and a shared passion for creating impactful, entertaining, emotional experiences for players and viewers throughout every facet of this universe," said Scot Amos, Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics. "These timeless stories span all media platforms to meet audiences where they want to engage with Tomb Raider; it's a critical step towards our future with fans everywhere."

"We are back to raid some Tombs, and it's time to tackle 6 Tomb Raider games (3 main games and the 3 expansions). I've already talked about all of these games, so I will mainly focus on the changes. The caves is one of the most boring levels in the franchise, but the new little details adds so much beauty to it. This intro alone makes me excited to see the rest of the game."

Some of my Tomb Raider OCs (and my never-ending quest to draw them consistently😭)
Itzi, Hathulei and Chahun - aides of Tihocan, Natla and Qualopec respectively
Hetri - one of the previous Atlantean rulers (replaced by Tihocan after her death)
Parile - an Atlantean healer
Polly - a present-day assassin, hired to kill Lara
Some of them briefly appear or are mentioned in some of my fics, but I'd really like to do more with them to actually show off their characters. In time, in time...🥲
I would really love to see them interact (the only time we see is when Rutland is dying) because I wonder what kind of dynamic they had. Was Amanda sweet and fawning with him to accomodate his personality? But that'd kinda look like she was just using him for money, but her grief seemed real...
