PDP-8-tan is depicted as a small, tanned-skinned woman with yellow eyes. She wears her orange-red hair in a 60s-style flip hairdo and tends to dress in similarly retro fashion, with miniskirts and go-go boots a common occurrence in her wardrobe. | |||
PDP-8-tan has an extroverted and bubbly personality, loves meeting people and trying new things. Her enthusiasm for new experiences gives her an edge in the job market - while she is less intelligent than many of her DEC peers, she displays an uncanny knack for picking up new skills quickly (indeed, her résumé is one of the longest and most diverse at DEC). Some believe this talent is merely a product of "dumb luck", while others posit that it is indicative of hidden genius. | |||
====Family and Relationships==== | |||
PDP-8-tan considers herself the mother of all her OS-tans and is particularly close with [[OS/8]] and [[TSS-8]]-tan. Her wife is [[LINC]]-tan, and together they have one daughter, [[PDP-12]]. | |||
Due to her sociable nature, PDP-8-tan was likely viewed favorably by the majority of her DEC-tan peers. She has no known in-faction rivalries, although she is upset at her creator for his perceived abandonment of her and the DEC faction and his founding of their rival clan, Data General. | |||
