FreeBSD is a Unix-like OpenSource Operating System. The mascot ot This OS is the BSD Daemon. Daemon in software means a service, which runs in the background and activates itself upon a certain trigger (activity on a port, a certain time has passed, system load below a certain level), the mascot however is a cute, red devil. The unprecedented level of unity in the BSD community led to it having different names: it is either Chuck or Beastie (which is phonetic for 'BSD'). While the OS-tan is rarely seen, another phenomenon exists around this Operating System, which resembles the OS-tans too much to remain unmentioned: Devilette, a brunette woman garbed in a latex catsuit with horns and a tail, stylized after the BSD Daemon. | FreeBSD is a Unix-like OpenSource Operating System.

There are a few FreeBSD-tan designs, each of them influenced by Devilette. The most popular known FreeBSD-tan design was created at OS-tan Collections. This design has light red hair with long bangs, pigtails in the back and very long at the sides. She has green eyes, red devil horns and tail, a sleeveless red mini-dress, long black high-heeled boots and long black gloves. | There are a few FreeBSD-tan designs, each of them influenced by Devilette.

FreeBSD-tan is very easygoing and gets along very well with her Open Source relatives of the [[User Space Gang | User Space Gang]], as well as any other Unix-tan who likes the User Space Gang ideals (such as [[A/UX | A/UX-tan]]) but she speaks little of her family. While she still could be a contender for the UNIX throne she appears almost disinterested in it. Nor is she as critical of the Linux-tans as her other sisters (OpenBSD-tan, in particular, is highly competitive with them), even though she doesn't hold back at all when she's forced to fight one. She's more than content to live free and let the rest of the world run its course | FreeBSD-tan is very easygoing and gets along very well with her Open Source relatives of the [[User Space Gang | User Space Gang]], as well as any other Unix-tan who likes the User Space Gang ideals (such as [[A/UX | A/UX-tan]]) but she speaks little of her family otherwise.

She and her sisters who were around in the mid 1990's ([[OpenBSD | OpenBSD-tan]] and [[NetBSD | NetBSD-tan]]) used to be part of the Unix Family faction, though they were only there by association. FreeBSD-tan especially was sent tons of disciplinary notices over crimes and infringements she had no idea existed, and really didn't care to learn about. When drafted to fight in the Unix wars, she just left, managing to escape arrest using some clever tactical skills. She later met up with her sisters, and Plan 9-tan who had left since rejecting her status as Unix's heir to her throne, and they formed the User Space Gang. | |||
