Technical details
RSX was a family of more than 10 real-time operating systems developed by DEC, created for use on the PDP-11 computer. RSX was noted for being wildly different than other DEC OSs. While it contributed largely to VMS, it's own heritage is vague; most accounts trace its roots to a Bunker-Ramo RW-300 process control system, circa the late 1950s.
Character details
RSX-tan is a representation of all the RSX releases; she is a mature woman, with medium-length grey hair (though she had black hair in her youth), often tied in a ponytail, and blue eyes. She wore a fancier variant of the DEC Military uniform when in service; a white long coat or split-front dress over a shorter dark red dress, and flat shoes. She reluctantly dressed in uniform, and much prefers to wear sandals and long sundresses.
She carries a backsword and is a skilled swordfighter. She also shows skill with alchemy, the control of air being a specialty.
Her attitude is serene yet stoic, nearly emotionless, but with a caring side; She served as a strict, yet devoted teacher to the younger generation of DEC-tans.
She was raised by the older generation of DEC-tans, with Batch 11-tan serving as her mother; yet her real ancestors are said to lie in a ancient, almost unknown group, dating back to the late 1950s. Her ancestor, which she doesn't know of, is RW-300-tan. Her lineage was kept a secret for the sake of DEC patriotism, some didn't like the thought of a star pupil being from a foreign bloodline. She was soon considered a DEC-tan in her own right, she and her daughters are officially part of the DEC lineage.
RSX-tan has two daughters: VMS-tan, with whom she is quite close, and Vaxeln-tan; whose relationship with her is somewhat distant, since by the time Vaxeln-tan was born, the DEC Empire was close to collapse.
