Unix-tan is depicted as a short, pale-skinned young woman, apparently matured to her mid-teens (in spite of being aged well past 40). She has long, near-black purple hair with purple highlights, usually worn loose although some depictions show her wearing it held up in a ponytail. A little above her humanoid ears, she has a pair of fluffy, dark gray horned owl ears. Her eyes are also quite owl-like - piercing, intimidating and inquisitive-looking, deep blue in color but with electric blue "highlights". She has tiny, aqua-colored Bell Laboratory logos implanted over her pupils and wears rectangular brownie glasses. She usually dresses in simplistic, monochrome-colored clothing, often being depicted in boots, a blazer, sweater-vest, shirt, small tie and pleated skirt with perforated "UNIX" accents or a plain, long-sleeved and knee-length black dress. Since the early 1990s she has been confined to a wheelchair and has been pictured both in an elaborate power wheelchair and a more portable manual one.

She is often shown holding a polished aluminum staff with a variety of Roman numerals inscribed into its surface. While it mostly functions as a sort of ceremonial sceptre, she is sometimes shown using it as a weapon. The numbers in its surface are thought to symbolize the various tenets of Unix Philosophy.
