The classic Core Lara Croft was born between 1967-1970 and was therefore approaching the age of 30 in 1997’s Tomb Raider 1. However there are several versions of “younger Lara” in the TR canon, including the pupil at school in Wimbledon, the girl who survived the plane crash in Nepal, the appentice of Werner Von Croy, the adventurer from Tomb Raider Chronicles, the friend of Amanda Evert, the daughter of Lord Croft from the movie, the young Lara from the cartoons and comics and the teenager from the “Tomb Raider Origins” movie/game reboot. You could use these different (and conflicting) incarnations of young Lara in your story, or you could ignore them create your own (provided your version is recognisable as Lara Croft).

The challenge is to write a short story of between 1,000-10,000 words suitable for a PG/teen audience. The deadline for entries is Feb 14th, 2011.
