Technical details
Fedora Core was created in 2003 as a continuation of the workstation version of RedHat Linux; which had been discontinued earlier in the year. While it's known for having the latest features and enhancements before other distros, it comes at the cost of new versions being released every 6 months, with each version being supported for 13 months. Regardless, it remains a popular distro.
Character details
General
Fedora-tan is the younger sister of RedHat-tan, who was raised from a young age by her older sister to be a general use OS; since RedHat now had a career as a businesswoman. Even with her humble beginnings, she rose to great success over the years; eventually becoming a rival to every current OS, including but not limited to Ubuntu-tan, OSX-tan, and 7-tan. Although she is a high-ranking member of the Linux Unix Consortium, she's less concerned about her rank than her sister, and is more focused on the computing world at large.
She has a zest for life, sense of initiative, and is always eager to be the first to start a trend or adapt technology, although she can be a bit brash and reckless in the pursuit; sometimes sacrificing stability in the name of having the latest software. In this regard, she has outpaced her older sister, who favors stability, although RedHat does come to her sister when she needs info on the latest trends.
In her spare time, she has been known to join her sister on spy missions.
Appearance
The most common appearance for her is that of a lady in her 20s, with brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a blue business suit with a light blue "F" on the coat, a light blue necktie, and a light blue miniskirt, as well as a blue fedora and high-heeled boots. She's often seen carrying a spear as her primary weapon.
An alternate version portrays her as young girl with blue eyes and light blue hair in pigtails, wearing a blue dress.
Another version is a combination of both designs, wearing the outfit of the brown-haired Fedora-tan, but has blue eyes and white hair in pigtails.
Trivia
The current owner of the OS-tan Collections is named after Fedora-tan. This has resulted in many jokes over the years about his identity
