Default Murti Schofield ORIGINAL TRAOD Beta documents - released!

Hello dear TRAOD fans!

Today Lara's Boyfr.(former leader of TLD) approached me on facebook and asked me to publish Murti Schofield's documents to Tomb Raider community. Murti sent them to the Lost Dominion team three years ago hoping they could have use for it and stated that they can do whatever they want with these files. Since Lara's Boyfr. believed that these files shouldn't be exclusive to TLD team, I was told to publish all the documents given to TLD by Murti.

Below you can find links to everything that was given to The Lost Dominion team. It includes the entire story from different stages of development, detailed informations about characters, Lux Veritatis, The Greys, The Agency and other groups, FMV sequences, dialogues, possible game continuations and spin-offs and more.

Download HERE, HERE, HERE or HERE(*****************).

Have fun reading this and well, discuss!

Holy is this for real I am downloading it instantly.

Perhaps worth exploring is a scenario whereby Lara was genetically sampled during this recovery time as part of a parallel project the Greys were running to see if they could anticipate Eckhardt's findings and do without him. They were spectacularly unsuccessful. Visions of mutant variations on Lara herself keep flashing into mind during her 'abductee recalls'...
What? That is quite a plot twist.

There were 7 Cabal members? Media aspect was eliminated completely in the game, and the technology communications aspect.

Nothing there was final. It's just notes and sketches which just came into someones mind at some point, so I wouldn't take all for granted. But with a clear mind, you'd see which would make sense and which not. These are early drafts from 2000-2002 so don't treat them as "granted for the beta"
Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for sharing all this. I am glad to finally see what plot angles they wanted to pursue. 7 cabals members is the most interesting one at the moment.

I will try to read the parts with the shaman now.

Wow, so is this all the material we've found out about over the last couple of years that was thought to be lost (or at least, totally unavailable for public consumption) regarding the various different concepts that went into "AOD"?

Exactly!
We received these over 2 years ago from Murti, but after seeing that its not much use for TLD (regardless the prospective of its future) I believed it would be best to release it to the community. In fact, I feel bad we kept it for internal development of TLD for more than 2 years in the dark. But better late than never I guess.
