			All mages can hold Quintessence, but some can

			only determinant. Some people simply seem to have
			a greater facility for storing magical energy. Likewise, not all mages can channel Quintessence equally
			well, but some can let the energies of the universe
			flow through them without ever breaking a sweat.

			Quintessence and may spend only two per turn,
			which means that some effects must he built up over
			time. A rating in this Background allows much
			greater control over Quintessence and capacity for
			it, however. Mages with very high Fount ratings
			sometimes report strange whispers and urgings when
			they channel large amounts of Quintessence. Of
			course, each Fellowship has its own explanation for
			this phenomenon — divine messages, advice from
			spirits, and so on — but no mage really knows what
			these voices truly portend.

			'''Fount''' was the term used by magi in the Dark Ages to describe their inner potential for manipulating magic.

			The mages of the Dark Ages are largely unaware that their ''Fount'' is actually a separate entity which enables the use of magic. The matching between these Fount-entities and their host mages is so perfect (enabled by the continued existence of Psychopomps) that the entity's own voice is quieted, while simultaneously granting increased power to the mage. While in theory this perfect joining is a good idea, in practice an imperfectly-matched Fount-entity's constant challenging of the mage acts as a sort of conscience and guide. Without this inner voice, many mages fall prey to infighting and hubris, becoming ''"extraordinarily potent total bastards."''

			Later, in the Dark Fantastic, this inner potential would be recognized as a separate entity, the ''Daemon''. In the modern era, it will be known as the ''Avatar''.
