Within the GameCube version's data are graphics for an earlier Vivian design depicting her with a shorter body and a flame on the tip of her hat. Concept art included in the Nintendo Switch remake reveals that the latter trait was part of an early design for all three Shadow Sirens, with Beldam and Marilyn also having a shard of ice and a lightning bolt at the end of their respective hats. This concept art additionally depicts the Shadow Sirens with black skin, which was changed to purple by the time the early Vivian sprite was created.
