IRIX-tan possesses the server and workstation skills one would expect of a member of the UNIX Family; however, she specializes in minor reality warping masquerading as graphical sourcery, and this is the source of her fame. She is capable of conjuring intricate visual and illusory constructions, running the gamut from spectacular light shows to highly-detailed virtual worlds. These constructs can be used to creative and peaceful ends, and indeed she is quite popular among artists, filmmakers, designers, & scientists for these very reasons. Just as well, however, they can be used to defensive or destructive ends, such as subjecting an attacker to sensory overload or trapping them in a nightmarish dreamscape. She is quite proud of her abilities and uses them throughout her daily life, which puts her at odds with the traditionalistic old-school UNIX systems, particularly [[UNIX|UNIX-tan]] herself, who finds her daughter's visual shows distracting & bothersome, and makes a point of ignoring them at all costs. | IRIX-tan possesses the server and workstation skills one would expect of a member of the UNIX Family; however, she specializes in minor reality warping masquerading as graphical sourcery, and this is the source of her fame.

After Rackable's buyout of SGI in 2009, production of replacement units ended, and so IRIX-tan hoards every pair she can get her hands on. | ||
