“Thank goodness! And just when I was about to give up and find another buddy-duo..."― Clara
Clara Lost is a supporting character in Yooka-Laylee who appears three times in different worlds. Clara is a self-proclaimed explorer who often gets into trouble often involving baddies. She tends to be around her 'antique' named Potty Mouth as well.
Name Origin[]
Andy Robinson, when asked on Twitter for a name origin, claimed it was "Nothing special apparently!"[1]
Appearance[]
Clara is a skeleton wearing a pith helmet, red fingerless gloves, and a pink ascot. When out of Potty Mouth, she wears torn yellow pants with a red string, and brown explorer's boots. She may have once been a human or some other being.
In Tribalstack Tropics, she resides in a melting pot with bones tied into the center, over a small campfire, bound by ropes. Potty Mouth has a green bubbling liquid inside. Strangely, her eyes are intact despite being a skeleton.
Personality[]
Clara is kind but tends to be careless, as she gets captured by Corplets often.
Task[]
She will ask Yooka and Laylee to be rescued from the Corplets, or do other tasks for her.
- Tribalstack Tropics: Defeat 15 Corplets
- Glitterglaze Glacier: Destroy the Igloos.
- Moodymaze Marsh: Retrieve the gem
Locations[]
- Tribalstack Tropics - Tribal Village
- Glitterglaze Glacier - Igloo Cliffs
- Moodymaze Marsh - Outside of the Foggy Pit
Quotes[]
- "This whole experience has been quite traumatic. But at least I got a bath out of it. The adventure game can cause these sockets to rather grimy."
- "Gosh! It seems you just can't be a world class explorer these days without being cooked and eaten..."

Trivia[]
- Her name is a pun of Lara Croft, from the Tomb Raider video game series, who is also an explorer/archeologist who fight baddies, and her appearance features the same short, mittens, boots and ponytail as the original character. Her concept art appearance relies even more on the classic Lara Croft appearance, with a classic braid.
- At no point in the game does Clara ever introduce herself. However, Dr. Quack's quiz does have a question asking who the pictured character is that identifies her in game as "Clara".
- The main challenge challenge theme when rescuing Clara in Tribalstack Tropics (and the racing theme for Nimble) is simply the Tribalstack Tropics main theme, but sped up approximately 43% faster.
- In Tribalstack Tropics during the beta version of the game, Laylee spoke to Clara saying "If they're hungry they'll need a character a bit more fleshed." However, in the final version, Potty Mouth is the one who speaks this piece of dialogue.
- In the Beta version of Yooka-Laylee, Clara was trapped in a pot in Glitterglaze Glacier instead of being outside of it.
