Ringmaster immediately assessed her and pegged her as someone he could manipulate and play with along with the other members. He used his cunning, manipulation skills along with his fierce intellect and astute personality insight to trick Harleen's sympathies into living a new life. Since that day, Harleen has been on a mad rollercoaster ride with the circus after she broke into a costume shop and developed for herself a new look, becoming a jester and recreated her name to the clown character, Harlequin. She willingly assisted the circus into stealing from their audience of their wallets and valuable items after Ringmaster hypnotizes them. Her snapping point into insanity came that after numerous performances and criminal heists, she became obsessed to the circus, claiming that her life was centered around them, even allowing Ringmaster to continue with his leadership. Since then, her motivation to crime was a desperation and she had an insatiable will to destroy their enemies. Harleen was then prone to extremely violent mood swings. When she's upset or angry, her fragile mind can respond savagely, flying into frenzies and attempt physical harm upon herself or others. Although she has not killed anyone, she is potentially homicidal, unaware of the consequences of her actions. After being convinced by Trickshot to betray the circus during one of their biggest crimes, she accidentally-on-purpose got them all caught. Fury saw something in her and Trickshot while they were being arrested and offered them a place in SHIELD, which they accepted. Going under the persona as Hawkeye, Clint later joined the Avengers, but Harleen was put in solitary confinement so she could be treated of her mental condition while being under Ringmaster's control. After months of treatment and therapy, Harleen turned slightly stable. After joining the Avengers, Harleen regained faith in herself and she used her insane and playful actions as merely fun and games. She may be a kind, sweet, and gentle, but her aggressive battle dementia brings out everything, making her a very unpredictable opponent towards her enemies.

Her younger brother was a dead beat, along with children from two different women who still lived at his mother's house. Harleen sent him several large sums of money to get his life on track, but he ditched it. Harleen's father was a criminal con-man, known for swindling women for their money with his charm. She was so dull in her education, she tricked her way into college where she achieved a master degree and where she developed her skills in gymnastics, accounting for her acrobatic abilities displayed later in her life. Thinking that her boyfriend, Guy, was looking out for her, he shoots an innocent man, believing him to be "murdered" professor who hadn't died yet. Guy thinks that he can`t live with the guilt, and wants to die, but can't bring himself to suicide and asks Harley to kill him instead. And she does, for love, disguising the murder as a suicide. Traumatized by these events, she begins to believe that the universe is in a constant state of chaos. She represses her feelings of sorrow, and eventually bumps into Ringmaster, the leader of the Circus of Crime, a band of circus performers who use their abilities to steal from their audience. She feels safe after he calms her of her fears. Lying to her that he believes in some of the same things and that he would give her a better life, he influenced her to join his circus and she willingly accepts. Harleen made up her new persona name from the French clown, Harlequin, turning her current name into the alias of Harley Quinn. Becoming a circus clown, she transformed herself into a jester to make the audience laugh with her childish and humorous actions. However, through numerous performances and criminal heists, she began growing an obsession to the circus, claiming that her life revolves around it. Harleen's personality began to shift while she worked as a clown. Instead of being strong and independant, she became violent and childish; becoming a delusional psychopath. She made an interest in a fellow circus member named Trickshot, a name Clint Barton went by before he became Hawkeye. The two became good friends and they became close. The circus meets Ant-Man while he was watching the circus performances and when he went into communication with Ringmaster. Lying to him, Ringmaster convinces him to steal money from the city bank, until he realized they were criminals and betrayed them, also making Clint take a shot to the head with one of his own smoke arrows, causing Clint to hold a grudge toward him. Ant-Man notices Harleen, knowing that she was innocent and tried to convince her to run away, but she refuses. This encounter has made Scott distantly attracted to Harleen. Overtime, Scott keeps visiting Harleen at her trailer at night without her knowledge or permission. He keeps going on about her freedom, but she insists that the circus was her family and that she couldn't leave them behind. Giving her a chance to stay alive especially in fatal situations, he injects a toxin into her bloodstream that would allow her to be immune to most toxins and poisonous chemicals; also allowing her to have enhanced strength and stamina to survive normal fatal accidents. Clint convinces Harleen to betray the circus during a heist, causing them all to get caught. But Fury saw something in the two of them and offers them a place in SHIELD, which they accepted. Hawkeye later joined the Avengers, but Harleen was put into therapy in order to cure her mental instability. After months of treatment, she eventually turned stable. After joining the Avengers, she promises herself that she would use her playful ways for fun and games instead of causing harm. Her new life was reborn as she successfully began to blend into the family.
