Ironically, the character that became Wren is not one that has ever had "trying to look sexy," or anything approaching it, as a component of her design. Rather, the changes in garments, hairstyle, and accessories have been the result of changes in the storyline in which she exists. Would you believe she started out as part of a 8-person military unit composed of human soldiers that were the hosts of silicon-based aliens? That's why she had the silly bodysuit, it was part of their uniform. And the weird flowy-sleeves and wrap-pants bit was from a time when her character utilized almost exclusively "soft" martial arts, like Qigong, I Chuan, and Tai Chi Chuan (her wrist-bands had acupuncture needles in them, which she used in combat to immobilize her opponents). The differences in pose and expression are part of her change from spunky (I was twelve when I created that first one) soldier-girl to the somewhat jaded paramilitary spec-ops investigator she now is. Her design became more practical (and plausible) as I aged and learned more about How The World Works.
