*'''Quick Facts:'''
**-Ultimate ancestor of RSX 11, OpenVMS and Windows NT-tan, and thus all modern Windows OS-tans.
**-RW-300 was employed successfully in different chemical plants, refineries and nuclear power plants.
**-Mysterious, known mostly for her work and not her personality. (little info on the OS, but it did make an impact on the industry)
**-Like her daughter and granddaughter, she's a loner.
**-A very skilled chemist, has skills bordering on alchemy. This is a two-pronged reference; both to RW-300's use in the chemical industry AND a throwback to RSX-11-tan and VMS-sama's alchemical/geomancy skills.
**-Has a foggy short-term memory in matters not pertaining to work. (Computer had a small memory capacity but that didn't diminish its usefulness). She's quick-thinking and fast on her feet (realtime OS).
**-RSX 11-tan is her daughter, though RSX 11-tan doesn't know her real heritage (having only been raised in DEC by DOS Batch 11-tan). Whether RW-300-tan knew of their relationship is unknown.
**-Has dark skin, long hair, dresses in utilitarian clothing.
