Backpack
The most handy of all of Lara`s tools and weapons is the backpack. Found when she was only at the age of 16, Lara wore this for many games until The Angel of Darkness when the Police set a few dogs on her who bit it off. The backpack is most suited or refered to as the inventory, and many fans suggest that because it can hold many things in it, it belongs to Mary Poppins.
PLS/Torch/Flares
PLS (or personal light source) replaces the Core Designs flares and is unlimited until it starts to overheat and automatically turn off.
The torch is an upgrade in Tomb Raider Anniversary that you can flick on and off if you are playing on the Wii.
Flares are a big addition to Lara's backpack and are used in every single Core Design game except for the Angel Of Darkness and the first game. They are very handy and can light up many dark areas. Unfortunately however they don't last very long so sometimes you have to chose the right moment to light them.
