Lara is an olympic class athelete, giving her 16 con is not too much. Just a friendly comment, don't think you'd change it or anything just pointing it out.
Heya Horned God,
The main reason I gave her evasion over a higher con is because although she's no doubt healthy, Lara is essentially someone who spends a lot of time, jumping, rolling, dodging, ducking, leaping to the ground and so forth.... alll things which just screamed Evasion to me
Increasing her Con for the purposes of Damage save etc.. kinda implies to me that she's just toughing it out as opposed to getting her rump in gear and getting out of the line of fire... anyway I did consider a higher con initially but Evasion just made more sense to me along with her heightened Dex.
