## Lore

An enigmatic yet adorable visitor from space, **Juno** brings a one-of-a-kind playstyle to the field. Her semi-sentient blobbos can be placed all over the field and work together to help **Juno** score, creating plays that leave opponents wondering what in the world just happened.

**Juno** comes from deep space, but beyond that little is known of her story. During a stunning New Year's fireworks show, she crash landed onto the roof of **Luna's** laboratory. **Luna** named her **Juno** and built her a suit to more easily hold a human form. **Luna**, ecstatic at the thought of having a younger sister, tried to teach **Juno** everything she could. She showed her the human basics - how to walk, talk, and play Corestrike.

**Juno** approached the world with a timid curiosity, never quite knowing what new experience would come next. While the colors, sounds, and sensations of Ahten city could be overwhelming at times, Juno grew a fondness for the human world. She especially enjoyed the spectacle of Corestrike — the speed, energy, and sense of excitement were unlike anything she had witnessed before. She hoped that by playing it she could experience a bit of what it's like to be human.

Luckily, **Juno's** natural form lent itself well to the game. When **Asher** decided to pick her and **Luna** up to form a team, **Juno** stunned the crowd with her otherworldly abilities. In the Pro League, **Juno** continues her journey. While she's still trying to learn what exactly being "human" means, she knows she loves her new home and family very much.
