2013年的《古墓丽影9》为劳拉·克劳馥开启了全新三部曲冒险,为玩家打造了一个令人难以置信的游戏世界,由该系列中最可怕的反派之一统治:邪马台失落岛国的不死太阳女王卑弥呼。
2013’s Tomb Raider ushered in a groundbreaking new trilogy of adventures for Lara Croft, giving players an incredible game world to explore dominated by one of the franchise’s most terrifying antagonists: Himiko, the immortal Sun Queen of the lost island kingdom of Yamatai.
劳拉第一次遇到卑弥呼是在她作为考古学家和冒险家的职业生涯早期。劳拉和她的船员们乘坐“坚忍号”穿越太平洋,跟随詹姆斯·惠特曼的探险队寻找邪马台,却遭遇了一场猛烈的风暴,并在偏远的岛屿上遇难。在那里,幸存者们很快发现自己面临着比他们想象的更可怕的威胁。
Lara first encountered Himiko early in her career as an archaeologist and adventurer. Scouring the Pacific aboard the Endurance as part of James Whitman’s expedition in search of Yamatai, Lara and her crewmates became embroiled in a violent storm and shipwrecked on the remote island. There the survivors quickly found themselves up against a threat more dire than they could have ever imagined.
邪马台的背景故事中提到卑弥呼,这位美丽却冷血的女王拥有背景故事中的力量,统治着该岛,直至公元248年左右去世。她的臣民相信她有能力将她的力量转移到她的女祭司——太阳之女身上,从而使新的女王能够年复一年地统治。但卑弥呼实际上是邪马台唯一的统治者,她能够秘密地将自己的灵魂转移到更年轻的身体中,从而延长她超自然的生命和统治。
Legends of Yamatai speak of Himiko, a beautiful yet cold-blooded queen with fabled powers who led the island before her eventual death around AD 248. Her subjects believed that she had the ability to transfer her powers to one of her priestesses, the Daughters of the Sun, allowing new queens to reign through the years. But Himiko was secretly Yamatai’s only ruler, able to surreptitiously transfer her soul into younger bodies, prolonging her unnatural life and rule through the ages.

因此,卑弥呼的统治持续了数百年,她的真实本性只有她自己和她的风暴守卫将军知道。多年来,年老的卑弥呼会将自己的灵魂转移到不知情的女祭司年轻身体中,不断延续她的永恒统治。这一循环持续了数代,直到一位名叫星的女祭司意识到她女王的真正力量以及她所面临的命运,在转移仪式完成之前自杀,破坏了仪式,并将卑弥呼困在她那日渐腐朽的身体中。
And so Himiko’s reign endured for centuries, her true nature known only to herself and her Stormguard general. Through the years, an aging Himiko would transfer her spirit into the young body of one of her unwitting priestesses, continually perpetuating her eternal reign. This cycle endured for generations until a priestess named Hoshi, realizing the true power of her queen and what fate awaited her, killed herself before the transferal ritual could be completed, corrupting the ceremony and trapping Himiko in her decaying body.
然而,失败的仪式非但没有阻止卑弥呼的统治,反而激发了一种可怕的新力量。卑弥呼因无法死亡而充满超自然的愤怒,诅咒了邪马台,摧毁了岛上的王国,并制造了猛烈的风暴,阻止任何人逃离。
Far from stopping Himiko’s dominion, though, the failed ritual sparked a terrible new power. Unable to die, Himiko’s supernatural rage cursed Yamatai, destroying the island’s kingdom and creating wildly violent storms preventing anyone from escaping.
最终包括马蒂亚斯。
Eventually including Mathias.
马蒂亚斯在1982年的飞机失事后被困在岛上,他意识到阻止他们逃离的风暴中隐藏着一股邪恶的力量。与其绝望地试图离开邪马台,他转而向内探索,寻找岛上最隐秘的秘密,并最终开始崇拜卑弥呼,他认为自己能听到她的命令。当劳拉和她的船员几十年后抵达邪马台时,马蒂亚斯已经形成了一个由遇难者组成的邪教来侍奉卑弥呼,称为索拉瑞兄弟会。
Stranded on the island after a plane crash in 1982, the cunning Mathias came to realize the storms preventing his fellow survivors from escaping held an evil presence. Rather than try hopelessly to leave Yamatai, he instead turned inward, seeking out its most hidden secrets and eventually coming to worship Himiko, whose commands he believed her could hear. By the time Lara and her crew arrived on Yamatai decades later, Mathias had formed a cult of castaways to serve Himiko called the Solarii Brotherhood.

卑弥呼数百年来对新身体的渴望终于得以实现了,当坚忍号在邪马台岛沉没时,船上载着的萨曼莎·西村,既是劳拉的朋友,也是卑弥呼家族失散已久的后裔,她可以作为女王邪恶灵魂的合适容器。
Himiko’s centuries-old wishes for a new body to take over finally came to fruition when the Endurance shipwrecked on Yamatai carrying Samantha Nishimura, Lara’s friend and a long-lost descendant of Himiko’s line who could serve as a suitable vessel for the queen’s malevolent spirit.
马蒂亚斯的邪教绑架了珊曼莎,将她带到太阳神殿举行仪式,将卑弥呼的灵魂转移到珊曼莎的身体中,但仪式再次被劳拉·克劳馥挫败,她杀死了马蒂亚斯并摧毁了卑弥呼腐朽的身体,彻底结束了女王的统治。终于,邪马台漫长的噩梦结束了。珊曼莎获救,风暴消散,劳拉带领她的朋友离开岛屿前往安全地带。
Mathias’s cult kidnapped Sam, taking her to the Chamber of the Sun to perform the ritual to transfer Himiko’s spirit to Sam’s body, but the ceremony was thwarted once again, this time by Lara Croft, who killed Mathias and destroyed Himiko’s decayed form, stopping the queen’s reign once and for all. At last, Yamatai’s long nightmare came to an end. With Sam freed and the storms dissipated, Lara led her friends away from the island to safety.
但这并不是卑弥呼背景故事的终结。虽然劳拉成功阻止了卑弥呼完全转移,但她不死的灵魂的一小部分附在了珊曼莎身上,潜伏起来,直到这位古老的女王能够再次追求永生。这些事件以及劳拉为拯救珊曼莎的灵魂而与卑弥呼展开的最后一战,在黑马漫画的古墓丽影系列中得到了完整的记载。卑弥呼的背景故事和2013年古墓丽影游戏的事件也被改编为2018年由艾丽西亚·维坎德主演的古墓丽影电影。
But that was not the end of Himiko’s legend. While Lara succeeded in stopping Himiko from totally transferring over, a small portion of her deathless spirit attached itself to Sam, laying hidden until the ancient queen could make her next play for immortality. These events, and Lara’s final battle to save Sam’s soul from Himiko, are fully chronicled in the Tomb Raider comic series from Dark Horse. Himiko’s legend and the events of the 2013 Tomb Raider game were also loosely adapted for the 2018 Tomb Raider film starring Alicia Vikander.
