Technical Details

UnixWare is a proprietary Unix server OS from Novell, but was owned by SCO Group from 1995 to 2011, and is now developed by Xinuos.

Character Details

UnixWare-tan is depicted as a woman with long light blue hair with a long side-bang, rectangular glasses and a grey + purple gown. She is a smart and calculating warrior with a strong desire for success as she was born out of a need to make her company more successful in the server OS market. While she comes off as likable and friendly, she has had many failed collaborations because she is regarded as too grating, pompous and war-like to get along with.

She despises Windows NT-tan and it has been her ambition to end NT-tan's dominance of the server OS market. This is out of a personal hate of the Windows Family and to avenge NT-tan's attacks on some of UnixWare-tan's comrades. She also once deeply disliked her stepsister SCO Unix-tan and the two would often battle over who was the truest descendant of Unix, referencing SCO and Novell fighting over who owned the Unix trademark. However, when SCO bought out Novell, they gradually grew to like each other, and accept each other as the truest descendants of Unix. She is affiliated with the Linux/Unix Consortium in the OS-tan backstories.
