* By all accounts, the second was a very diminutive body, ([[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks]]'', ''[[The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe (short story)|The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe]]'') with a blue bodysuit over silver skin ([[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'') or actually blue skin. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe (short story)|The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe]]'') She wore a "bizarre, [[silver]], filigreed" outfit ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe (short story)|The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe]]'') including a helmet and cape. ([[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'') Romana quite liked this form, but complained that it was "a bit short". ([[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks]]'') Romana thought the Doctor would "hate" this, as he would always be tripping over her. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe (short story)|The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe]]'') By one account, this body was described only as "a very small girl", and the Doctor did not bother looking up from his work to see her. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks]]'')

* By most accounts, the third body was a buxom woman with an elaborate outfit that revealed her midriff and included several necklaces, as well as a headdress hung with chains of gold rings. ([[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'') She was described as "a towering [[Amazon]] with rich, red hair", wearing "a bizarre two-piece outfit covered by a long, see-through robe". Romana thought the Doctor would find this body "much too intimidating". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe (short story)|The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe]]'') By one account, however, this "exotic female of some alien race" was the ''fourth'' body tried. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Destiny of the Daleks]]'')
