Lore

Even in a world of magic, some things are still rare and unusual. So what is a unicorn to do?  Announce her presence to the world and potentially have poachers looking to saw off her horn? Or hide in plain sight at a Coney Island Side Show where most folk would assume her appearance was just part of an act?

Over the years "The Dazzling Celeste" has grown into one of the more popular attractions on Coney, and while the applause from a cheering audience is appreciated; what keeps her waking up in the morning is the found family she's made at work.

Keruba the Mermaid.

Blockhead Lenny.

Chickenwing.

Ted.

These were her people.  So when she discovered that one of her own sold part of their soul in order to cover a gambling debt, Celeste knew it was time to step out of the shadows and do whatever it takes to get it back.  Is revealing her power to The Patrons a risk?  Yes.  But that's tomorrow's problem... her family needs help today.
