When Joon was an infant mer, she was discovered without parents, by a stranger named Lilo.
Lilo (Special Dollzone Wendy) took Joon in, and plays the role of caretaker/ nanny till the mother supposedly returns. As a nanny she is a very otherworldly sea creature, especially in personality.
Because of this, Joon was raised to not be like other fish brained mermaids in Earth's oceans. She's intelligent, accepting, and eccentric, but more serious than a dolphin. Very resourceful for her age, thanks to the care of Lilo.

It is rumored among the merfolk that Joon's father* must have been a human, because of how strange they think she is. Joon's nanny does not argue against this in any way, and keeps Joon's life a mystery. Only Joon ever seems to ask about her parents, but the subject is always forgotton or ignored. Still, Joon asks about her parents a lot hoping for an answer someday.
Regardless of how much she knows, Joon's life is filled with a lot of secrets, plus her unique appearance (controlled bio-luminescence), leaves her constantly weirding out other merfolk. With the exception of her friends, who know her, and love her for it.

Joon can oddly enough, hover above the water as well, and seemingly swim through the air for small periods of time. Although this is not normal for merfolk, they tend to brush this off as Joon simply being a very skilled jumper. The nanny understands this however, and suspiciously states that it is normal that Joon hovers in the air.

Her nanny gave her a pet for comfort, to keep her otherwise occupied when friends aren't around. A baby octopus with alien like augmented intelligence. His name is Prometheus. Thanks to Lilo, they can communicate with him through sign language. No one but Joon and Lilo can translate for Prometheus.


*It is hinted by Lilo, that Joon's father may be a human child named Prince Dakkar (aka later to be popularly known as Captain Nemo) who rules on land nearby the sea.
Although this only makes sense to Lilo, so this info goes over Joon's head like an adult joke to a toddler.

*Nanny Lilo may be an E.T. from outer space, because there are no other sea or merfolk in the ocean like her. Joon adores this theory.

Extra Note: Lilo told Joon that her mother left her with the name Jooniper, because her mother liked how it sounded. No note was left when she was abandoned, so it's another mystery as to how Lilo knows this.
