Brigid Tenenbaum for development, Fontaine created the first Plasmids and Gene Tonics. However, after a chance encounter between one of his dock workers and a mutant sea slug, Fontaine realized that his fishery gave him access to something even more valuable: ADAM.Īfter securing a supply of sea slugs, Fontaine invested the profits from his fishery into the development of Fontaine Futuristics, Rapture's first ADAM development company. Running a fishery gave Fontaine access to boats and submarines, which he could use to smuggle contraband material into Rapture for the highest bidder. It's likely that he caught wind of Andrew Ryan's efforts to establish Rapture in the North Atlantic and smelled a moneymaking opportunity, scamming his way onto Rapture's guest list.įontaine's first 'business venture' in Rapture was Fontaine Fisheries, a fishing company that would supply a large portion of Rapture's seafood diet. By his own admission, he once impersonated a Chinese person for six months for one of his grifts. He'd go to any lengths, lie in wait for years on end under an assumed identity, just for a shot at a payday. Cons, after all, are Fontaine's favorite thing. The precise means by which Fontaine entered Rapture are never precisely laid out, though it's probably a safe bet that he conned his way in somehow.
