These methods, fractured as they may be, form Essences. Although Avatars carry different sets of memories or goals, most (if not all) can be classified according to the way that they operate. The various Essences describe an Avatar's specific composition in Prime terms. Ultimately, the mage may or may not believe in or be aware of the existence other Avatar, but it's there as an unseen influence that pushes toward a vision of Ascension. Rarely, strong Avatars will actually manifest, creating a material form and then dealing with the mage directly. A mage's Avatar might sound like a reasonable voice in the back of her head, or come across as a sudden urge to do something.

Most often, Avatars only show themselves through soft, barely -noticed whispers and flashes. The mage may find herself engaging in behaviors indicative of her Avatar: jumping from one interest to another with a Dynamic Avatar, seeking ordered perfection with a Pattern Avatar, looking for hidden meanings in everyday occurrences with a Primordial Avatar or forging ahead into new hobbies with a Questing Avatar.

Once Awakened, though, the Avatar pushes its own direction through dream-messages, subconscious urges and emotional patterns. Psychologically, the mage is driven by her Nature and Demeanor, and by the motives and desires fostered in the course of living, as with any human. Your character's Avatar plays a large, but subconscious, role in her development.
