Being a metamorphagi seemed fitting for the life Karen lived. With the two personalities living in her head, it was fateful that she could change her appearance at will. Growing up, it wasn't easy changing her PERSONALITY at will, but... her face, now that was a choice she could make.
She was born with the ability, of course, but she didn't really register that she had control over it until she was around three years old. She remembered seeing a pink pony toy that she wanted to play with, but since another child was holding it she couldn't. Instead, her skin slowly started to turn pink and she looked down at her hands, grinning, realizing her power then.
Even still, she didn't really start to make incredibly conscious decisions about her ability until she was around seven or eight. Her younger self (and still now occasionally) would just change appearance based on her basic moods and instincts, as she grew older she learned how to do it on command however she chose.
It wasn't until she was out of school, around age eighteen, that she decided to create a new face for when her personality switched. It was actually Kara, the 'other' side, that decided this. She doesn't always do this, like when she is at work, but in more fun and exciting situations... she is happy to change her face.
