Celine Mercier

Celine Mercier was the victim in A Bag of Tricks (Case #38 of Venusville).

Profile
Celine was a young acrobat working for Venusville Circus. She had brown eyes and pink dreads which she ties in two separate buns. At the time of her death she wore sparkly black-gray bodysuit and she sported gold facepaint.

Murder Details
Celine's headless body was found in her changing room. According to Philip Perry, Celine's head got completely blown off after she smoked her hand-rolled cigarettes probably filled with gunpowder. Philip found fingernails on her cigarettes, meaning that the killer probably bites their nails.

Killer and motives
The killer was revealed to be voodoo priest Erik.

After admitting to the crime, Erik said that he only sent a warning to OoS by killing Celine. When Amber told him to explain, Erik told them that his real name is actually Tom Lopez and that he is an escaped prisoner who killed his mother three years ago. One night, close friend of his freed him from prison and told him to make sure that OoS lab is shut down. Erik then disguised himself as circus's voodoo priest to blend in with the crowd and decided to spy on her since Celine is a senior agent herself. After finding out the location of secret lab, Erik decided to kill Celine to warn Demos and Stella. Erik refused to reveal Stella's identity, so the duo handcuffed him and brought him to courtroom. Amber immediately deduced that Erik's close friend is actually OoS's enemy who got the idea of freezing Venusville before them. Judge Grayson Pierre then sentenced Erik to life in prison.
